Cucumbers occupy one of the main places among vegetable crops grown in our garden.
In order to achieve high yields, it is important to ensure that they are provided with the necessary nutrients.
An important element of caring for cucumbers is their proper feeding, says Anastasia Kovrizhnykh .
To increase the yield of cucumbers, there is an effective solution recipe. Take a bucket and cut rye bread.
Fill the bucket 2/3 full. Pour water over the bread and put a weight on it. Leave the mixture in a warm place for 7 days.
After this, feed the cucumbers once a week. Before use, dilute the solution with water in a ratio of 1 to 3. Apply the solution before flowering and during flowering.
In addition to the solution, there are other ways to improve the yield of cucumbers. If cucumbers have a lack of potassium, their leaves begin to turn yellow.
In this case, ash will help. Dissolve a couple of tablespoons of ash in 1000 ml of water and leave for 2 days.
If cucumbers are affected by powdery mildew, dissolve sour milk and water in equal proportions and spray them once a week. Or dissolve 50 grams of soda and 50 grams of soap in a bucket of water. Use this solution for spraying.
This way you can get a bountiful harvest of cucumbers. Plant feeding and additional care measures will help you grow healthy and juicy cucumbers. Enjoy your gardening!
