Cucumbers are popular among gardeners due to their nutritional properties, including carbohydrates, proteins, potassium, iron, carotene, and vitamins.
July is an important month for gardeners, as there are many tasks to complete, even though June has already passed.
Among the many tasks, do not forget to carry out two fertilizations that will help cucumbers grow faster and protect the plants from pests.
The first fertilization is prepared based on boric acid. For this, three grams of the substance are dissolved in a small amount of water, then the resulting solution is added to 10 liters of water. The plants are sprayed on the leaves three times during the season.
The second mixture not only fertilizes the cucumbers but also repels pests. To prepare it, one liter of kefir is mixed with a glass of wood ash and 10 drops of iodine are added. Separately, 5 grams of boric acid are dissolved in warm water and added to the main mixture. Grated household soap is also added. All ingredients are thoroughly mixed in 10 liters of water.
The spraying is carried out three times at intervals of 4 days. These two fertilizations will help create ideal conditions for the cucumber harvest and protect the plants from pests.
