How to fertilize cucumbers scientifically? Here are some methods you can refer to for fertilizing cucumbers: 1. Transplanting period: Five days after transplanting, start using Purodan 15-30-15 high-phosphorus fertilizer at 500 times dilution combined with seaweed extract at 1000 times dilution for root drenching, once every 10 days, for two consecutive applications, to promote root development after planting and enhance disease resistance in the later stage. 2....
How to fertilize cucumbers scientifically? Please introduce
You can refer to the following methods for fertilizing cucumbers:
1. Transplanting period: Five days after transplanting, start using Purodan 15-30-15 high-phosphorus fertilizer at 500 times dilution combined with seaweed extract at 1000 times dilution for root drenching, once every 10 days, for two consecutive applications, to promote root development after planting and enhance disease resistance in the later stage.
2. Growing period: Use Purodan 20-20-20 general-purpose fertilizer and Purodan 28-14-14 high-nitrogen fertilizer at 300 times dilution for root drenching or 600 times dilution for foliar spraying, alternating use, until the first fruit appears.
3. Fruiting period: Use Purodan 15-15-30 high-potassium fertilizer (special fertilizer for melons and vegetables) at 300 times dilution with water for root drenching, once every 10 to 15 days until the first fruit is harvested. At this time, depending on the growth condition, you can also combine Purodan 20-8-20 high-nitrate nitrogen fertilizer or Purodan 20-20-20 general-purpose fertilizer at 300 times dilution with water for root drenching according to soil conditions and growth status, alternating use, once every 10 days.
4. During the fruiting period, seaweed extract at 1000-1500 times dilution can be used together with Purodan 20-8-20 as foliar spray to increase fruit set rate, improve fruit color and sweetness, and avoid the occurrence of deformed fruits.
