How to grow delicious cucumbers

To get a noble crop of cucumbers, you need to pay attention to some points.

The plant must build up the root system in order to form additional adventitious roots.

The soil must be constantly mulched so that microorganisms multiply in it, moisture is preserved, and it remains air-intensive.

In hot weather, the cucumber is able to “drink” up to 3 liters of water per day.

The plant in the process of growth is watered with water warmed in the sun in the morning, during flowering and fruiting - in the evening.

Cucumbers are not watered with a strong jet from a hose. Only the soil is watered, not the plants themselves.
