Defining dressing for Carrots in August. Get juicy and even Root vegetables without any problems

Everyone knows that a good harvest of carrots cannot be obtained without fertilizers! But at what point in the growing cycle are they most important? Having studied the relevant literature on botany of vegetable crops, I realized that in August.

And then, having figured out the topic a little, I found out what exactly you need to feed the carrots in August in order to dig out even, amazingly juicy and sweet vegetables from the ground in due time!

In the first ten days of the month, I prepare a herbal “cocktail”. Any weedy greens from the garden will do. She needs to fill the barrel by 2/3 of the volume, then top up with water to the top and add a little fermented jam or granulated sugar.

I consider it important to warn you - the mixture, then left in the sun under a loosely closed lid, spreads far from the best smell. Therefore, it is better to place it away from home.

So, after 2 weeks, you can use the resulting liquid for watering carrot beds, having previously diluted with warm water in proportions of 1:10.

Also at the beginning of August, the turn of the achievements of the modern chemical industry - potassium monophosphate begins. It contains phosphorus and potassium - that is, two main elements that contribute to the appearance of excellent taste in carrots and protect the roots from cracking.

To prepare top dressing, I simply dilute 1 tablespoon of the product in 10 liters of non-cold water and then water the beds well, so that the solution spills onto the ground and tops.

In the second half of August, there is the third feeding, for which I use ash. It contains just a mass of valuable substances that contribute to the ripening of large and long-stored root crops.

Ash is required not from grass, but wood. If there are no cut branches from the site, you can simply burn a couple of logs. From personal experience, I can say that carrots more positively perceive ash not in dry form, but as a solution.

To prepare it, you need to dissolve 2 glasses of ash in 10 liters of warm water and remove to infuse for 48 hours. Before watering the beds with the agent, it is imperative to stir the solution so that the ash concentration in it is more uniform.

These are the simple rules I follow in August and these dressings have never let me down - carrot root crops ripen just wonderful and in huge quantities.
