Cottage, garden, vegetable garden, useful tips. Little garden secrets and tricks for gardeners and gardeners How to keep carrots until spring
Thirty-seven tricks for gardeners and gardeners, that will help make your cottage the best in the area:
1. Beetroot loves sprinkling and frequent, but careful loosening.
2. After the second thinning, the beets are fed with mineral fertilizers.
3. Best of all, beets grow in narrow beds, 3 rows wide with a maximum of 15-17 cm between plants.
4. Until the carrots have sprouts, they are watered regularly. When shoots appear, it is better not to water them for 12-15 days, except for dry days. This allows the roots to go as deep into the soil as possible.
5. If mustard is sown next to peas, its yield will be 2 times higher.
6. Dill is best sown in the sun, as in the shade it reduces the aroma of leaves. Ash and lime are not added under dill.
7. Clematis is watered with lime milk in spring - 100-150 grams per 10 liters of water.
8. In mid-July, the earth is carefully raked from the fruits of celery and wiped with a cloth. After 15-50 minutes, spud again. Watering is carried out only after 2-3 days.
9. To stimulate the pouring of pumpkin fruits, its whips are pinned to the ground and rooted.
10. Seedlings of pumpkin crops, such as cucumber, squash, zucchini, can be grown in this way: cut the sod into cubes 10 * 12 cm, turn the roots down, make a depression and plant a seed in it.
11. In order for rhubarb petioles to grow thick, the soil under the plants is fertilized every year.
12. Do not feed beans, peas, onions, garlic, beans with nettle infusion.
13. Apple and pear need more potassium, and cherry needs more nitrogen.
14. If you stroke the tops of the seedlings every day for 1-2 minutes, it will not stretch. When touched, ethylene is released, which inhibits this process.
15. Nettle increases the resistance of nearby plants to diseases. That is why it is useful to mulch the aisles with chopped nettles.
16. Mustard green manures enrich the soil with phosphorus and sulfur, and also cleanse it of the bear and wireworm.
17. Onions will grow better if mustard grew in this place.
18. Repellent plants: lupine, celandine, nastrutium, calendula, marigolds, onion, kanufer, tansy, wormwood.
19. It is useful to mulch strawberries with coniferous litter. This will improve the taste of the berries, and also help to cope with gray mold, weevil, ticks, wireworms. And mulching with ferns will help strawberries cope with nematodes and gray mold.
20. After a sharp cold snap, the plants are sprayed with immunocytophyte or zircon. Can you use infusion onion peel. Pour 10 liters of water 0.5 liter jar husks, boil, leave for 12 hours, strain. When spraying, dilute with water in a ratio of 2/10.
21. When it gets colder, buckets with hot water, heated bricks are laid out on metal sheets.
22. To increase the yield on the site, it is necessary to attract pollinating insects. To do this, sow pink and white clover, fescue, bluegrass. Insects are also attracted by the flowers of white mustard and carrots.
23. To have remontant varieties strawberries in the second half of summer had more abundant fruiting, in the spring they break out flower stalks.
24. A good companion for cucumber is dill.
25. Beets sown along potatoes and tomatoes help them cope with late blight.
26. If you stick a nettle stalk next to each planted cabbage plant, then the cabbage will take root better.
27. From cabbage butterflies and aphids, dill, coriander, celery, marigolds, calendula are sown in the aisles of cabbage, and wormwood branches are also laid out.
28. When planting potatoes, a handful of ash is poured into the hole - it is a fertilizer and helps from the wireworm.
29. To increase productivity and improve taste in the first half of June, garlic is first watered with salt water - 2 tbsp. spoons for 10 liters of water, and then ordinary.
30. With poor growth of carrots, the beds with this crop are watered with a salt solution - 1 tbsp. spoon for 10 liters of water.
31. Cucumber is demanding on moisture, especially during flowering and fruiting. However, at the beginning of flowering, it is better to reduce watering, and then reinforce again. This contributes to faster fruit formation.
32. In hot weather, cucumbers, along with abundant watering, combine frequent spraying.
33. Cucumber pollen dies at t>30ºC Therefore, at this time, containers with water should be placed in the greenhouse.
34. Low temperatures and sharp changes in day and night temperatures are the reasons for the deterioration in the taste of cucumber. Also, cucumbers do not tolerate drafts at all.
35. The increased content of carbon dioxide in the air accelerates the ripening of fruits and increases the yield. Therefore, it is useful to put a container with mullein in greenhouses and mix it from time to time.
36. If at the beginning of summer several fruits are set on pepper plants, and flowering has stopped, then these fruits must be plucked. Plants after that will begin to bloom with redoubled energy and by the end of the season will give a high yield.
37. For influx fresh air to the roots of pepper, loosen the soil more often and prevent the formation of a soil crust.
Eustoma will decorate your garden Eustoma is a very attractive plant with bluish, as if covered with wax, leaves and large funnel-shaped simple or double flowers delicate shades. Flowers in eustoma grandiflora reach 7–8 cm in diameter. They are the most different colors- white, pink, lilac, purple, white with a colored border, etc. Half-blown flowers look like rosebuds, and when they open completely, they look like large poppies. The stems of the eustoma are strong, 80–90 cm in height, branching strongly from about the middle, so that one plant looks like a whole bunch. On one plant, I once counted 35 buds. All varieties of tall eustoma produce long peduncles and are suitable for cutting. And cut flowers last a long time in a vase. Reproduction Unfortunately, eustoma does not reproduce by dividing the bush - this, as a rule, ends in failure. Since the adult lisianthus does not tolerate the violation of the root system, all resulting divisions may die. Cut eustoma cuttings do not take root either. Therefore, the main and most reliable way reproduction of this beautifully flowering plant - seeds. Terms of sowing seeds Amateur flower growers begin sowing eustoma seeds in winter (December - January). This is due to the fact that eustoma blooms on the 15–20th week after germination, therefore, when spring sowing it just won't bloom. I sow eustoma seeds from the end of November until the first days of February. It makes no sense to sow later, I was convinced of this when my first eustoma with buds was covered with snow. So I didn't get to see them bloom. Sowing in detail Eustoma seeds are sown in disposable cups (50 g) with light, moist peat soil, to which sand or perlite is added to make it more loose and breathable. Suitable from purchased substrates ready soil for Saintpaulia. Sow the seeds superficially and slightly press into the soil, after a month and a half it is necessary to make a pick. After sowing, put plastic bags on the cups to create a greenhouse effect and you can wait for the emergence of seedlings. Lighting and temperature For the first two months after sowing, eustoma seedlings need bright diffused lighting so that they grow compactly and do not stretch. Such lighting can only be created using fluorescent lamps. The optimum temperature for germination of eustoma seeds is 20–25°C; small seedlings appear in 10–15 days; they develop slowly for the first two months. Watering the seedlings For the first two months, the seedlings are practically not watered, because immediately after sowing, put plastic bags on the cups, and the humidity remains under the bags for a long time. As experience shows, eustoma seedlings growing in such greenhouse conditions need watering only once every 2-3 weeks, and even then not plentiful. Small seedlings of eustoma a month and a half after germination must be dived into separate cups. In late February - early March, already grown young plants should be transplanted by transshipment, without destroying the earthen coma, into pots with a diameter of 8 cm. It is imperative to pour a thin layer of drainage from expanded clay, zeolite or just finely chopped foam onto the bottom of the pots. Place the transplanted plants on a well-lit window sill and gradually, removing the bags and accustoming to the sun, adapt the seedlings to a film-free content. So eustoma grows in these pots until the seedlings are planted in the garden. In mid-May, plant seedlings in a flower bed. Eustoma is ready for transplanting when it has 4-8 true leaves. As soon as you plant eustoma in open ground, she immediately starts to grow. So in a month it is no longer recognizable. Feeding eustoma should begin after good rooting seedlings, about a month after planting. To do this, you can use high-quality mineral fertilizers for flowering plants which are completely soluble in water.

Irina Kondratieva: My new experience growing winter garlic. Magazine Gardener's World, October 2018, p. 5: "Experienced gardeners have special secrets for planting garlic. Sometimes these are the smallest details that summer residents do not pay attention to. the shape of a "skewed" drop - one side is rounded, the other has a rib.The rib is set so that it looks north or south, then the head of garlic grows much larger, because the leaf fan plane is located from north to south, and the plant is better lit and In the fall of 2018, I planted with the rounded side to the south.The fan of leaves in 90% of the garlic grew turned exactly to the south!In the remaining 10% of the "naughty" garlic, the leaves are not quite oriented, apparently due to the fact that the cloves in the process of rooting turned in the ground. In general, the advice from the magazine works! We are waiting for the harvest!

Tomato top dressing recipe Over the summer, I spent three such top dressings. As a result, we got an excellent harvest! The tomato bushes grew powerful, there were no burns on the fruits, the plants easily endured heat and any bad weather. But the biggest surprise was that the tomatoes ripened and delighted us throughout October, despite the rains and cold nights. The end result brought great joy. You will need: Water - 2.5 - 2.7 liters Yeast - 100 g Sugar - 0.5 cups Preparation: Pour 2.5 - 2.7 liters of water without chlorine (settled) into a three-liter jar. I breed yeast in warm water. I add diluted yeast and sugar to the jar. Having covered with gauze, I keep the jar warm, shaking the contents from time to time. The solution (mash) is ready when fermentation is over. I dilute one glass in 10 liters of water and water it under each bush. Good harvest!

Symptoms of a lack of trace elements in cucumbers Symptoms of a lack of each of the necessary nutrients in cucumbers they appear very clearly and very definitely. Magnesium With a lack of magnesium, cucumber leaves become brittle and appear burnt in appearance. They acquire a lighter color (pale green, yellowish), only the veins remain intense green. Nitrogen With a lack of nitrogen, the stems become thin, hard and fibrous. lower leaves the upper ones droop and turn yellow - they become light green. The fruits are small, few of them are formed, cucumbers develop poorly and gain weight slowly. Ambulance- immediate feeding with a solution of mullein per liter per plant. The composition of the top dressing is a liter of mullein per 10 liters of water. Potassium With a lack of potassium, the leaves become dark color and domed shape. They grow small, and along the edge of the sheet you can see a light yellow border. In varieties of cucumbers, the fruits of which have an elongated shape, cucumbers grow round, tapering at the stalk. First aid - a glass of ash in a 10-liter bucket of water, water at the rate of a liter of the mixture per plant. Phosphorus fertilizers for cucumbers With a lack of phosphorus, plants stop growing, flowers and ovaries fall off, leaves become blue-green and small. Excess boron Characterized by the death of living tissue along the edges of the leaf and the domed shape of the leaves. Excess calcium Leaves become brittle and hard. Excess fertilizer It is noteworthy that not only a lack of certain elements is dangerous for cucumbers, but also an excess - in this case, growth also slows down and fruiting weakens.

Iodine, ammonia, brilliant green - in the garden! Iodine in the garden An ordinary vial of iodine can provide a gardener with more than one great service. Since we all know from childhood that iodine is an excellent antiseptic, it is a sin not to use this property in the prevention of plant diseases, especially all kinds of rot. A solution of 5-10 drops of iodine in ten liters of water is recommended to spray strawberries and strawberries before flowering. This simple procedure relieve it of gray rot and activate vitality. Spraying is carried out 2-3 times with an interval of ten days. With a solution of one drop of iodine per three liters of water, tomato seedlings are watered once in order to increase the productivity and future size of the fruit. After planting seedlings in the ground, you can carry out iodine feeding again by adding three drops of iodine to a bucket of water. Watering rate: a liter under a bush. If you mix 40 drops of iodine with a liter of serum and a tablespoon of hydrogen peroxide in 10 liters of water, you will get an excellent tool to combat the hated late blight. By adding a liter of non-fat milk and 10-12 drops of iodine to 9 liters of water, a solution is obtained that destroys downy mildew on cucumbers. In addition, iodine is part of the means that prevent yellowing of leaves in cucumbers and promote rejuvenation of lashes. FEEDING ONIONS WITH AMMONIA The tips of the onion feathers turned pale, and the feather itself became yellowish?! He lacks nitrogen. A solution of ammonia will help to replenish it. It is done like this: dilute 3 tablespoons of ammonia in 10 liters of water. And in the evening, pour the onion with this solution under the spine. Zelenka in the garden Brilliant green solution is no less famous than iodine, it will also be used in the dacha, no doubt. Zelenka can lubricate the wounds of plants with small pruning or accidental damage instead of garden pitch. 40 drops of brilliant green dissolved in a bucket of water will help rid tomatoes of phytophthora, and cucumbers from powdery mildew. In order not to measure a drop each time, you can dilute a vial of brilliant green in a liter of water, and then add a little bit to the eye for spraying. Spraying cherries with a weak solution of brilliant green helps to better set fruits. Trichopol in the garden "Trichopol" is used as prophylactic against phytophthora. For this purpose, 1 tablet of "Trichopolum" is dissolved in 1 liter of water and tomatoes are sprayed every two weeks. Aspirin in the garden Aspirin is part of one of the means of combating powdery mildew gooseberries and currants. Potassium permanganate in the garden Potassium permanganate is well known to any gardener and is used everywhere. First of all, in a pink solution of potassium permanganate (0.5 grams per 100 ml), it is recommended to treat the seeds before planting in order to destroy possible pathogens that hibernate on the seeds. To this end, the seeds are soaked in the solution for 20 minutes and then dried. If in a bucket of a pink solution of potassium permanganate (3 grams per 10 liters) add boric acid on the tip of a knife, then a good early spring dressing for strawberries, raspberries, currants and gooseberries will come out. This fertilizing option is especially good in areas with sandy soils. 2 teaspoons of potassium permanganate, dissolved in 10 liters of water, will save strawberries from gray rot, if you do not forget to spray the berry after flowering. Potatoes are soaked in a dark pink solution of potassium permanganate before planting, as well as seed tubers before being stored. Neither the wireworm nor pathogenic fungi like this treatment. In addition, soil for seedlings is shed with potassium permanganate dissolved in water, boxes, cups and pots are washed in which they plan to grow seedlings or forcing greenery, and greenhouses and greenhouses are treated inside and out to prevent plant diseases. The only thing to keep in mind when using potassium permanganate is that everything is good in moderation. You should not get too carried away with watering "rose water". An excess of manganese in the soil can adversely affect the development of crops.

HOW TO HELP ONION FEATHERS GREEN AGAIN It is impossible to imagine the hostess' kitchen without onions. Let tears flow from him like a river, but in many dishes a vegetable is necessary. Therefore, in private plots, onions are grown everywhere. It is planted either for the winter or in the spring. Onions are growing well. Rarely enough is capricious and shows discontent. But oh serious problems signals. Often - yellowing of the pen. What to do if the onion turns yellow? Everything depends on the season. If the onion began to turn yellow in June, for example, then this is bad. The plant is not happy. Or someone wound up in the garden. You need to figure out why the onion feather turns yellow, and take action. If this happens at the end of July, then there is no reason for concern. The harvest has begun to ripen. We'll clean up soon. Provocateurs of yellowness: Why do onion leaves turn yellow? Causes of the problem: a pest has wound up, there is not enough nitrogen in the soil, the plant lacks moisture. Rescue measures will depend on the specific cause. Pests: As a rule, the plant is damaged by flies and secretive proboscis. Onion fly Symptoms of its presence: feathers turn yellow and wither early, a larva can be found in the bulb, the vegetable rots, and the plant is pulled out of the ground very easily, even accidentally during weeding. Pest orientation: 1. Size adult- about seven millimeters. The body is yellowish-gray with dark sparse stripes. 2. The larva is a white worm with cone-like processes at the end. It can be seen in the bulb or in the soil near the plant. The pupae of flies hibernate in the soil. In spring, the pupae wake up. Egg laying coincides with the flowering of dandelions. A week later, the larvae appear. They sneak into the bulb and feed on it. Protective measures: Deep soil digging before sowing; early boarding; neighborhood with carrots, the smell of which repels flies; destruction of infected plants; sprinkling the earth around the onion with ashes mixed with tobacco dust; cleaning from the garden of all plant residues. Onion Stealth Trunk Very dangerous pest, which eats away feathers from the inside. Signs of its invasion: on the leaves - white spots and longitudinal stripes, yellow tips of feathers, twisting and drying of the feather. For young plantings, both adults and larvae are dangerous. How to recognize a pest? 1. Adult beetle - small insect up to two millimeters long. The body is covered with light scales. The tarsi and elytra are brownish. There is a light stripe at the base of the elytra. 2. The larva is a light worm with a dark head. Hidden trunks hibernate in the ground, grass, shrubs or unharvested onions. They feed on them in the spring, gradually moving to fresh plantings. The female gnaws the onion feather and lays eggs there. After two weeks, the larvae emerge. They eat the internal contents of the feathers, and then descend into the soil to pupate. Protective measures: timely cleaning of plant residues; sowing on ridges remote from the plantings of the previous year; regular loosening of row spacing; cutting off damaged feathers plus loosening. Lack of nitrogen in the soil It can be observed both on dry days and on rainy days. Nitrogen is absorbed in dissolved form, so moisture is needed. At the same time, after heavy rainfall, nitrogenous compounds go too deep, from where the roots of the plant cannot absorb them. To compensate for the deficiency of nitrogen, onions are periodically fertilized with saltpeter, ammonium sulfate, urea or slurry. Lack of moisture During the period of active growth and gaining strength, onions need regular watering. Here are some recommendations: The plant is watered before and after weeding; pour water into the grooves made between the green bushes; with dense plantings, when you have to water over the feathers, use a watering can so that the water does not wash out the soil near the bulb; the need for watering is checked with a finger; if the soil is dry at the depth of the nail, then you need to water it; one and a half months before harvesting, watering is stopped. Feather Rescue: Let's Consider a Few folk methods integrated struggle with a problem. That is, such recipes that allow you to immediately eliminate several causes. 1. In ten liters warm water dissolve half a glass table salt and one ampoule of ammonia. Add three zhmenki ash. Water this composition once every ten days. Until the feathers turn green again. 2. planting material soak in strong potassium permanganate and land in rows sprinkled with salt. 3. For half a bucket of water - half a tablespoon of iodine, two bags of potassium permanganate and five hundred grams of soda. This is a concentrated formula. It must also be diluted in water in a ratio of 1:10. And already divorced to water. 4. Sprinkle the aisles with sand mixed with naphthalene.

Which plants improve the soil Plants that improve the soil In order to improve the chemical and physical properties soil, increase its fertility, resort to phytomelioration. Thanks to the use of phytomeliorants, the soil can be cleared of diseases and pests, reduce the number of weeds, reduce pollution, etc. Phytomeliorants include green manure plants and concentrator plants. Siderates are grown as green manure. This is one of the most effective ways restore soil fertility. Legumes and other plants or their mixtures are used as green manure. Legumes enrich the soil with nitrogen. As a green fertilizer, fodder peas, fodder beans, narrow-leaved lupine, beans, phacelia, seradella, vetch, clover, yellow and white sweet clover are most often used. Green fertilizer is able to heal the soil. In this regard, the most suitable are plants of the cruciferous family - radish, rapeseed, mustard, colza. They suppress the growth of weeds due to their rapid development. In addition, pests such as wireworm do not like mustard, and marigolds and spring rape can destroy several types of nematodes. Also, planting cruciferous plants prevents leaching of mineral elements from the soil, and mustard helps plants get sparingly soluble phosphates. If the soil is light, then phytomeliorants will increase its moisture capacity, and on heavy soil they will improve the water regime. Concentrator plants absorb large quantities certain elements, i.e. are phytoremedians. They are planted in order to cleanse the soil of heavy metals. If you use these plants every year, then the level of heavy elements in the soil will decrease significantly. ➣ Legumes can accumulate 6 times more radioactive elements than cereals. To cleanse the soil from radioactive elements, it is necessary to plant barley, alfalfa, mustard, sunflower, dwarf or downy birch. Plants that go to green manure are crushed and then buried in the soil. They are added dropwise during budding and at the beginning of flowering, because it is at this time that a large amount of biologically active substances are present in them. On light soils, plants are planted to a depth of 12-15 cm, on heavy soils - 6-8 cm. Siderates Siderates (green manure) are plants that quickly form a green mass and are a source of organic matter and nitrogen for other plants. Green manure is sown to enrich the soil with nitrogen and organic matter, potassium, calcium, phosphorus, improve soil structure and its physical and physico-chemical properties, increase the activity of beneficial microflora, protect the soil from erosion and blowing, and suppress weed growth. Siderates have a phytosanitary effect, attract beneficial insects thanks to their bright colors etc. Siderates are plowed into the soil until seeds are formed. In this way, they prevent their self-sowing and turning into weeds, and at the same time the soil receives a supply of certain nutrients. The most commonly planted green manures are: legumes - lupins, beans, soybeans, lentils, seradella, clover, sainfoin, fodder beans, sowing and field peas, alfalfa, sweet clover, spring and winter vetch, sap grass, etc.; cruciferous - mustard, colza, rapeseed, oilseed radish; buckwheat - buckwheat; hydrophiles - phacelia; Compositae - sunflower; cereals - rye, oats, wheat, barley. Principles of sowing green manure Green manure is sown in spring and autumn, before and after planting the main crop. Sow thickly in spring, less often in autumn. If sown in early spring, then pick up early cold-resistant plants - oats, mustard, fodder peas. Green manure is plowed 1-2 weeks before planting the main crop. The effectiveness of green manure depends on the age of the plants. Young plants are rich in nitrogen, so after incorporation, the main crop can be planted after 2-4 weeks. It is important to remember that too much green mass should not be closed. Soil preparation The soil for green manure crops should be well prepared. Every year at the beginning of May it is necessary to sow such early crops like peas, dill, early potatoes, radish, kohlrabi, lettuce, cauliflower. After harvesting, plant residues need to be embedded in the soil, level the surface and sow green fertilizer, having previously applied 1 bucket of nitroammophoska per 1 weave. If the soils are acidic, then 0.3-0.5 kg of lime is applied per 1 m2 to a depth of 5-7 cm. Seeds are sown randomly, covered with a rake, sprinkled with earth. Some green manure Lupine - a genus of plants of the legume family, is grown for green manure. Lupine is able to accumulate up to 200 kg of nitrogen per 1 ha in the soil. Lupine grows well on the poor acidic soils. The plant is sown in late July - mid-August after harvesting potatoes, cabbage, greens. After lupine, you can grow almost all crops. Seradella sativa is a genus of plants in the legume family. Moisture-loving, grows well on light slightly acidic soils. Seradella is usually sown in early spring as an independent crop or sown with cereals (oats, rye). Sweet clover, burkun - a genus of biennial, sometimes annual plants of the legume family. Sow it in spring, summer or autumn. In crop rotation, it is often sown under the cover of grain crops. Grows well in neutral soil. White mustard is an annual oilseed plant of the Cruciferous family. Grows in almost any soil. The green mass of the plant is mowed when the leaves are fresh and juicy. After planting mustard, the incidence of plants with late blight, rhizoctoniosis, tuber scab, etc. decreases. Also, mustard crops reduce the number of wireworms. ➣ Siderates of the Cruciferous family cannot be alternated with cruciferous vegetable crops, such as radishes, turnips, mustard, cabbage, etc. In these plants common diseases and pests. Oil radish - annual plant cruciferous family 1.5-2 m high. Radish can be sown from early spring to late autumn. A bag of seeds is mixed with one glass of dry sand and scattered over the site, then harrowed. The plant has phytosanitary properties - it destroys pathogens, suppresses nematodes. Annual sunflower, or oilseed, is an annual plant of the Aster family with a deep root system. The plant produces a lot of compost mass. It grows on any soil with a pH from very acidic (pH4) to alkaline (pH8). Buckwheat is a plant of the Buckwheat family, rapid growth, enriches the soil organic matter, phosphorus and potassium, absorbs organic phosphates well. Buckwheat is the best green manure under fruit trees and bushes. It is recommended to grow on poor, heavy, acidic soils. Precursors Good precursors are useful for all crops. So, cucumber, pepper, cabbage and onion, if grown in one place for 3-4 years, will reduce the yield by 30-50%. When choosing a predecessor, it is important to consider the timing of harvesting. For example, late cabbage is harvested in October. At this time, it is no longer possible to prepare the soil for carrots, early greens and other crops. The volume of grown products also plays a big role. For example, potatoes take more space than all vegetables combined, and parsley - less than tomatoes or cucumbers. This is why it is necessary to group the vegetables for the crop rotation so that they occupy approximately the same area. After potatoes, you can plant potatoes and other vegetables, except for pepper, tomato and eggplant. Potatoes can be grown after any crops. Tomato, pepper and eggplant (nightshade) should not grow in one place for more than 2 years in a row. They can be grown after any vegetable crops except cucumber, and cucumber cannot be grown after nightshade. Pumpkin (pumpkin, zucchini, squash, melon) are good predecessors for all crops except cucumber. You can grow pumpkin after any crop. Cucumber is a plant demanding of its predecessor. It can be grown in one place for only a year. Cucumber is undesirable to sow after pumpkin, melon, cabbage, swede and tomato. In turn, the listed plants are not recommended to be planted after the cucumber. Root crops (carrots, beets, rutabaga, parsnips, parsley, celery, etc.), like cucumbers, should not be planted in the same place in the 2nd year. They grow well after nightshade crops, cabbage and cucumber. After root crops, you can plant any crops. The only exception is spinach, which should not be planted after beets. Cabbage (white cabbage, red cabbage, cauliflower, Brussels sprouts, etc.), as well as radish and radish do not grow well after corn, cucumber and cabbage. Beans, peas, beans and soybeans are good forerunners for all vegetables. They, in turn, can also be planted after other crops. It is better not to plant onions for 2 years in one place, although they are undemanding to their predecessors. After garlic, onions, shallots, you can plant any vegetable crops. Lettuce, dill, artichoke, chicory and other greens can grow after any predecessors.

PREPARING IVAN - TEA Save so as not to lose! HOW TO PREPARE MIRACLE TEA: 1. So, we collect the upper part of the plant, along with leaves and flowers - they break off easily, in 5-10 minutes you can collect a hefty armful. 2. Next, leave for 12-20 hours (but not more than 24!) In the shade, in a dry place, to slightly wilt. The main thing is not to overdry! Enough juice must remain in the plants for fermentation. Also, it is better to dry the entire branches, rather than individual leaves. 3. Then we cut off the leaves and flowers from the branches. 4. We grind the leaves and flowers between the palms, with an effort so that the cells burst and the fermentation process begins. Leaves sap and darken. We put it tightly in an enameled or ceramic dish with a layer of 5 cm, then press it on top with a fist, cover with a damp towel and leave for 20-24 hours for fermentation at a temperature of 25-27 degrees. You can control the fermentation process by smell, when the process is completed, instead of the usual herbal smell, a very pleasant, candy smell appears. 5. We lay a layer of the finished mass on a baking sheet and dry it in the oven at a temperature of 100-150 degrees, for about 40 minutes, sometimes more. Stir regularly. The finished, dried tea is dark brown to black in color. Leave for a while to evaporate the residual moisture and pour into storage containers. Koporye tea is ready! Happy tea!

Strawberries are fed three times a year 1) In early spring after pruning the leaves, strawberries are fed with a complex mineral fertilizer(nitroammophos - 1 tablespoon per 10 liters of water) or organic fertilizer(infusion of mullein, diluted with water 1:10, or chicken manure - 1:12). Strawberries are fertilized at the root, using 0.5 liters of solution for each bush. 2) During the period of budding and fruit ripening, strawberries require more potassium, so potassium nitrate, ash or chicken manure infusion can be used for feeding. Spraying strawberries with microelements during flowering and ovary growth significantly increases its yield (a pinch of boric acid per 10 liters of water). 3) After harvesting and pruning old leaves, they are fed with complex mineral or organic fertilizer (2 tablespoons of nitroammophoska, 1 cup of ash per 10 liters of water). Feeding strawberries in August with urea (30 g per 10 liters of water) helps to lay and increase flower buds, which will increase the next year's harvest. Good luck at the cottage!

Currants need to be constantly rejuvenated - and you are guaranteed a big harvest An old currant grows: a large bush, and a mug of berries And in order to get a big harvest, currants need to be constantly rejuvenated Currants need to be constantly rejuvenated - and you are provided with a big harvest berry plants do not require very close attention. But there are two species among them that need constant care. These are strawberries and currants. The first summer residents, as a rule, devote quite a lot of time: they sit down, water, fertilize, mulch the beds, renew the plantation. But currants are most often forgotten for many decades. And then they wonder why the bush gives only a mug of berries, while you can really collect half a bucket from it. What is most interesting, many gardeners attribute crop failure to an unfavorable summer or harsh winter. In the meantime, care is a problem. In order for blackcurrant to bear fruit well, the bush must be constantly updated! CUT OLD BRANCHES Most berries in currants ripen in the center of the shoots. In this zone, the main number of fruiting branches is located, but they do not bear fruit for long, only 2–3 years. And after 6-7 years, the crop completely disappears. That is why the bush must be rejuvenated annually. When pruning, 2-3 new shoots are left. All older than 5 years are cut flush with the ground. With such a formation, there will always be up to 10–15 branches of different ages in a currant bush. PREPARE A REPLACEMENT Some summer residents can find currant bushes on the site that are 20, 30 and even 40 years old! Probably, they can be grown as a memory of their ancestors, but you can hardly expect a harvest from such relics. And if the berries are more important to you, then the bush should not be kept longer than 10 years - after this period it is better to uproot it. And replacements for aging plants begin to be prepared after 7–8 years. The easiest way to propagate blackcurrants is by layering. To begin with, loosen the soil near the bush. Then grooves are made 5 cm deep, strong branches are bent into them, pinned with wire and sprinkled with earth. When young growths reach 15 cm, they need to be heaped with humus or loose earth. By autumn, young shoots of layering form a mass of roots. Then they can be cut off with a pruner from the mother bush, dug up with a clod of earth and planted in a permanent place. In books they often write: currants can be propagated by dividing the bush. And gardeners willingly use this advice - it's a pity to throw out an uprooted bush. After all, it will turn out several new ones. However, this method is not the best: there really are more plants, but their quality leaves much to be desired. Moreover, in mother bushes diseases and pests accumulate, and when they divide, they pass "by inheritance". It is best to plant young plants in the fall. And so that the new bush grows powerful and gives good harvest, seedlings should be buried obliquely, deepening by 6–8 cm. In this case, additional roots are formed, and more shoots of renewal appear. SECRET OF SUCCESS Currants are best planted not in the open sun, but in partial shade. Then the berries grow much larger!
