20-25 cucumbers from a bush

Sadovod Rudenko found a method of growing cucumbers in an average of 20-25 pcs. From each bush. Harvest using this method is 6 times higher. Of the 11 varieties tested, the best was "Maisky". In addition to "May" he experienced "Competitor", "Nezhinsky", "VIR 505", "Donetsk". Some of them were not inferior in terms of yield to "Maisky".

Seeds were sown in boxes, sand was poured on the bottom for filtration, soil was added from above (50% and 50% humus). Filled the boxes to half their height on a 3- 4 cm , Planted the seeds through a 3- 4 cm To the depth of 1- 2 centimeters . I covered the boxes with glass and put them in a warm place for 3-4 days. Seeds did not germinate - otherwise they will grow yellow and frail. When the emergence of shoots removed the glass and put the boxes on the solar window. But as the seedlings grew, they poured soil until the boxes were full. THIS WILL BE THE FIRST INCREASE OF THE ROOT SYSTEM BY THE LANDING OF THE EARTH. Look closely at the stem of cucumbers, on it you will see a lot of pimples - these are the root roots. They will germinate when the soil is poured and give additional roots, increasing the system of the whole plant by almost 2 times, and hence the power of the whole plant.

The next operation is transplanting seedlings into pots (or milk bags). This is done when 1-2 leaves grow on plants. You need to cut the plant together with the ground and put it in a pot (package). The pots, like the boxes, are only partially filled with earth. As the plant grows, the ground is poured until the pot is full. THIS IS THE SECONDARY INCREASE OF THE ROOT SYSTEM. Then transplant the seedlings into the ground, under the film in the fence. Inside the fence dig a trench on both sides to a full spade bayonet. At the bottom of the trench, pour a humus 5- 7 centimeters . Before planting seedlings, the land should warm up under the film (a week). Disembarkation of seedlings: the package is cut and the clod of earth with seedlings is lowered to the bottom of the trench (on humus). Look at this com: it is literally permeated with roots - this is the main thing in this method, where the root system is quadrupled (2 times in the box and 2 times in the package). When a plant is lowered into a trench, sprinkle it with soil mixed with superphosphate (30- 40 grams On the plant). After that, cover the trench with straw, last year's weeds layer of 8- 10 centimeters And top it off with earth and pour. This layer of straw will give heat and food to plants during the rotting period and will release carbon dioxide. THIS IS THE THIRD INCREASE OF THE ROOT SYSTEM vertically. Cucumbers must be tied up, for this you need to make a high trellis trellis. They are less affected by powdery mildew, not so yellow.

ADVANTAGES OF THIS METHOD: a rather high yield - 112 cucumbers per square meter, a long vegetation period - 165 days against the usual 95. When watering a very small water flow. In the fence, the film and the trench hold moisture for a long time; Low consumption of mulching material, because it is easier to protect a narrow trench from evaporation. The main advantage is a small landing area: 18-20 plants per 4 sq. M. Meters away .
