How to properly care for cucumbers





Cucumbers we have already planted, but they grew well and bore fruit, to care for them. Many gardeners-gardeners know that cucumber is a capricious plant to grow. So, how to properly care for the cucumbers to the plant and not lost, and the harvest was good?

Watering. This is the most important item, water the cucumbers must often, they love water. But this does not mean that you have to fill them. Watering cucumbers need when they see that the earth had dried. When hot, need to be watered every other day, and now (spring in fact) until much blazing sun, and through 2-3 days. But again, looking at the ground, if it is in the ranks with cucumbers dry — pour. Fertilizer and drugs. Here you are already looking at their options. We, for example, before planting cucumbers scattered on the ranks of dry chicken manure, sprinkled with saltpetre and wizard, and then added the remedy of kapustenko Rembak (Rembek, it needs just a pinch under each plant. Of course, there's more and during the summer we are going to fertilize, use a vitamins and medications to kill pests. What I can not say, it all depends on how to grow a cucumber and what pests will torture him. And the most important thing is to tie up the cucumbers. This will tell and even show. So, how to properly care for cucumbers, you know, and now look like they need to tie up.

1. At the very bottom, under the first leaves, make a loop with one knot. Don't worry, he won't fall off. This loop should not be tight, you need to make it free, because the cucumber will grow and the stem will gain weight, if you really tighten the knot, the rope just passing the cucumber and the plant will disappear.





2. Next, we take obtrusive stem, but do it in a way not to interfere (unless they already have) cucumbers that are just starting to appear. You will then need to periodically tweak, we make it through the day, because the cucumber is growing rapidly. But we tighten up only until, until they reach the "ceiling" of our booth, then we just toss the plant through the top (at the top of the greenhouse we have the taut wire to which is attached the second end of the rope through the wire we are moving).

3. And, of course, the second end of the rope tied at the top of the greenhouse. As I said in paragraph 2, we have stretched the top wire. Of course, it is not stretched under the ceiling, because the farce we have of a height of about 3 meters, respectively, the wire we pulled roughly at the level of 1.8-1.9 m. the Rope do not pull strongly, it should be slightly loose, when you tighten up the cucumbers, it will stretch, so you should have "room to manoeuvre".

Also, don't forget that during the period while fruit pickles, they need to weed, eliminating the weed. Especially, it should be done at first, that the weed did not close the young plant from the sun.
