Who doesn't love this fragrant, incredibly fragrant and tasty berry from the garden? Since childhood, I have had an association with my grandmother's garden. She always looked after her so reverently, cherished her, fed her with various dressings and always reaped a rich harvest. That is why now I have already grown up and I can safely share with you the feeding methods that my grandmother successfully used.
I spend the main feeding of strawberries at the same time after the snow melts, also when the soil dries up. In order to avoid infection from pathogens, fungal diseases, I remove dried leaves from bushes and carry out cleaning there. If you did not have time to complete this operation in April, then in the beginning of May, until flowering, it is still possible to meet the deadline.
Before feeding, I spill the strawberries with water, since all kinds of fertilizers must be introduced according to the moistened soil, so as not to burn the plant roots. Then I sprinkle with ashes among 2 handfuls per plant.
This natural phosphorus-potassium fertilizer, which includes a varied number of other macro- and microelements. In addition, I put 2 handfuls of humus or compost under any strawberry bush.
Boric acid will be required, which dissolves in advance in warm water in a small container (2 g is taken. based on ten liters of water).
Boron increases the formation of the number of ovaries. After a whole dilution of boric acid in warm water, I pour the acquired liquid into a container with water at room temperature.
Next, I add Fifteen drops of a 5 percent iodine solution, 2 g to the tank. potassium permanganate, 2 tablespoons of urea. I thoroughly mix the introduced elements in a bucket. The purchased solution must be used immediately after manufacture.
