Most summer residents and gardeners want to achieve abundant fruiting of cucumbers.
There are three tricks that can help you with this, which you should use if you want to get up to 20 kilograms of fruit from 1 square meter of land.
Advice from experienced gardeners
The first trick is to water it correctly. The thing is that during fruiting, plants do not need a lot of moisture.
In order to retain water in the soil, do not neglect mulching. For efficiency, try to ensure that the layer thickness is at least 15 centimeters.
The second trick is timely removal of all "tired" parts of plants. In particular, it is recommended to get rid of yellowed, diseased and unnecessary young leaves.
Cucumbers also require a suitable temperature regime. If in the case of a greenhouse it is not difficult to observe it, then plants in open ground must be covered with polyethylene installed on metal arcs at night.
