I will tell you what I water the Cucumbers so that they do not slow down in development and immediately go into growth
To be honest, cucumbers are a crop that does not tolerate transplanting very well. And if, at the same time, injure the root system, then in general it can stop in development for a long time and hurt.
To prevent this from happening, I have been using one good recipe for a long time. Thanks to this top dressing, the cucumber seedlings quickly take root and immediately grow. I want to share this recipe with you. Take it into service and you will not regret it.
Top dressing is prepared on the basis of succinic acid. It can be bought at any pharmacy, it is inexpensive.
Top dressing composition
· Succinic acid tablets. They are needed to prepare 1 top dressing 4 pieces. Each tablet is 0.5 grams.
· 10 liters of ordinary water.
How to prepare top dressing
First, I grind the tablets to a powder state. Then I stir the powder, first in a small amount of water, and then pour in the rest of the water. The color is slightly unclear.
How to water seedlings correctly
It is very important that each root is saturated with the solution. You also need to navigate by the weather. In cool and cloudy weather, you can water the seedlings directly from above, without fear of getting on the leaves. If it is hot and dry, then water very carefully, strictly at the root.
After such feeding, the cucumbers will grow well, they will not get sick. And very soon you will notice how their growth has accelerated.
I usually plant cucumbers not only by seedlings, but also by seeds directly into the ground. Therefore, if I still have top dressing, I also water the cucumbers that I planted with seeds. It also benefits them.
In addition to succinic acid, I sometimes feed the cucumber seedlings with yeast. These dressings are effective but should not be used too often. Soil acidification is possible.
To prepare a yeast top dressing, you will need 2 liters of warm water and 30 grams of yeast, as well as half a glass of sugar. Some even use old jam. Then the solution is infused in a warm place for 2-3 days.
Then it needs to be diluted in 10 liters of water and water the seedlings. This should be done a few days after disembarkation, not immediately. If you are afraid of acidification of the soil, you can add a little wood ash to the solution.
Any dressing is best done after the soil has been moistened, and it is advisable to do this in cloudy weather.
