The right fertilizers

Proper feeding has a positive effect on berry yield.

For this, you can use mullein. You need to make a solution from it.

After half a liter of the product is added to ten liters of water. Then you need to add a tablespoon of superphosphate.

This product should be applied in the spring. But first, you need to remove old leaves from the bushes.

Weed control

Weeds can "ruin" the berry harvest. That's why it's important to fight them.

Therefore, the beds need to be regularly weeded and loosened.

In addition, mulch can be used to control weeds. Its layer should be about ten centimeters.

Fighting the mustache

Strawberry runners need to be removed. They take nutrients from the bushes.

Therefore, whiskers are real enemies for a good harvest. So it is important to trim them in time.

The right place

To ensure that the berries are large and tasty, the bushes must be placed in the right place.

You need to make sure they have enough light.

Therefore, you should not plant berries in the shade of bushes and trees, otherwise they may grow small.

Using a stimulator

In spring, you can use a special product, HB 101.

This product strengthens the bushes and has a positive effect on the yield. It can also be used before flowering.

Earlier, the expert explained how to properly plant dill and parsley.
