If you want to pick buckets of strawberries from your plot, be prepared for the fact that the strawberries will have to be put on a special diet.

This means that you must fertilize the beds with this crop from spring until the very end of summer, strictly following the schedule and norms.

In total, you will have to feed the strawberries exactly six times during the season.

1. The first feeding is done during the period of active leaf growth. It consists of 1 teaspoon of urea and 10 liters of water.

Use the resulting solution for watering, adding a bucket to each “square” of land.

2. The next time you need to feed the strawberries before they bloom.

You will need 2 grams of the Immunocytophyte preparation and 10 liters of water. This feeding is carried out by spraying the plants.

3. At the beginning of flowering, the crop should be treated with a solution of 1 tablespoon of nitrophoska, diluted in 10 liters of water.

You need to pour a bucket of ready-made fertilizer per 1 square meter.

4. The next day after the third feeding, water the strawberries with a mixture of 1 pinch of boric acid, the same amount of copper sulfate, 10 liters of water and 30 drops of iodine (added when the previous ingredients have dissolved).

The solution should fall on both the leaves and the soil, and at the end of the bed it is necessary to sprinkle with ash.

5. After harvesting, dissolve 100 grams of baker's yeast in 10 liters of water and spray the bushes.

6. The last feeding is done in the first half of August. You need to dilute 2 tablespoons of superphosphate and half a glass of ash in 10 liters of water and water the beds, pouring a bucket per 1 square meter.
