How to feed beets for a rich harvest

Ammonium nitrate is good for feeding beets.

A month after the vegetable sprouts, it is necessary to fertilize with potassium and phosphorus.

Beets can also be fertilized with ash.

Sprinkle ash at the rate of half a glass per linear meter, dig it in with soil, and then pour it on.

Another way is to mix a glass of ash in a bucket of water and pour the solution over the areas where the beets grow.

In addition to nutrition, ash also reduces the acidity of the soil, which harms the beets.

In addition, it is important that beets are very demanding of moisture at the beginning of the season and during the growth of root crops.

Fertilizing beets with salt will also be effective. Moreover, the fruits will grow unusually sweet.

Ammonia is a good remedy if your vegetables are lacking nitrogen or if you are struggling with parasites.
