How to plant cucumber

Fertilizer selection

The whole growth cycle

Type of fertilizer: compound fertilizer (burying) + potassium dihydrogen phosphate (spraying Plant) + magnesium boron fertilizer (spray plant)

Fertilization frequency: compound fertilizer 10 to 15 days/time, one mineral water bottle cap, evenly buried in the edge of the basin; dihydrogen phosphate clock 7 days/time, 1500~2000 times dilution; magnesium boron fertilizer for 10 days/time, 1500-2000 times thinner

Release, the three kinds of fertilization time are staggered.

Fertilization needs to be done regularly until the melon is picked.

.🥒Plant type selection (trimming)

Leave the vine: Leave only one main vine, and all the other side buds will be erased.

The position of the melon: count from the bottom to the top, all the melons below the sixth true leaf Erase

Number of melons left: more than the sixth true leaf, leave 1 for each node (leaf)

“Anti-fruit flies (need to be bagged)

Bag material: waterproof paper bag (good for grapes), hollow net no recommened

The bag is recommended after growth fruit.

Bagging time: Start the strap when the handle droops.

. 🥒The cucumber is ripe.

Maturation time: about 15 days after the female flower blooms (sufficient fat and water)

Appearance judgment: no longer expanding, the skin is stretched, and the color becomes lighter

⚠️ Precautions

Leaf disease: Leaves are prone to powdery disease for two consecutive days (white vinegar dilution 2000 times can be processed)

Curved cucumber: uneven water, sudden drought, sudden waterlogging

Leaf yellowing: Cucumbers grow fast and have a large demand for water and fertilizer. Remember to fertilize on time.
