All gardeners know that to grow heat-loving vegetables in the middle zone of the protected ground is almost impossible.Because in greenhouses and greenhouses heat is retained longer and the microclimate in them provided a favorable independent of external influences of wind, frost, rain and daily fluctuations in temperature, the seeding and transplanting can be done earlier than in the open field, and harvest time is lengthenedfor 1-3 months.And he yield and product quality is significantly better than in open areas.
Cucumbers are very demanding on the growing conditions and with proper farming techniques capable of producing very high yields.By caring for cucumbers in the greenhouse, you should be ready to ensure the plants enough light, nutrients, optimal soil moisture and air.
But there are a number of factors that the plants do not like - it's acidic soil, growing from year to year in the same place, watering late in the evening, a rare collection of fruits, poor ventilation of greenhouses after watering or fertilizing, sudden changes in temperature and drafts.But the most devastating plant are the cold air and cold water - this should particularly remember making care of cucumbers in the greenhouse, and never try to prevent similar troubles plants.
To the plants in greenhouses are well developed and allowed the harvest, there is a technology of growing cucumbers in the greenhouse, from which it is not recommended to retreat a single step.The first step in agricultural technology is to prepare the soil, which is already beginning to prepare for the two weeks prior to planting.To do this, producing a constant disinfecting the greenhouse and covered with film.The soil is well watered, disinfected with copper sulfate, making humus or compost at least 1-1.5 buckets of 1 sq m.ridge and fertilize the complex fertilizer type nitrophosphate or "Rastvorina" dug up and leave for a few days.Cucumbers are well bear fruit only in well-fertilized with organic fertilizers and soil the plants are not afraid of high doses of organic matter.
Further technology greenhouse cucumber cultivation involves transplanting, which are put in a line at a distance of 35-40 cm from one another.Wells makes a size of 10-15 cm and pour heated water or a pink solution of potassium permanganate.Seedlings should be for 2 hours before planting to water and should not be planted too deep, so that the top edge of the peat-compost cup was at ground level.If the seedlings grown in plastic beakers, containers to be cut at several places, and plant extract so that the roots are not scattered from earth lumps.If the seedlings are too stretched, you need to plant so that the plant was slightly tilted toward the ground.
planted seedlings should be watered with water at a temperature of not less than 27 ° and immediately produce mulch with peat or humus.Further care for cucumbers in the greenhouse requires that the top layer of soil is not dried and formed a solid crust.Please be aware that the present cucumbers start to grow only in a well-heated soil, without sharp fluctuations in daily temperature.
Under the roof greenhouses stretch two rows of thick wire, which will need to garter plants.Good care of cucumbers in the greenhouse means protecting plants from pests and diseases.A good solution would be planting along the track with the beds cucumber dill or basil - it deter aphids.When the fennel grows to a height of about 20 cm, it should be removed and the seeds to plant again.Okay, and marigolds repel aphids, they can be planted at the beginning and at the end of the ridge.
also need to make the process of growth of cucumber dressing.Sometimes the condition of the plant itself indicates a mineral or trace element lacks.Quite often gardeners wonder why in the greenhouse cucumbers turn yellow, and it's pretty clear signal that not enough soil nitrogen.But the cause of the yellowing leaves of cucumber can be pests, such as spider mites.He settles on the bottom of the sheet, wrapping his web.Mite sucks the sap from plants, causing the leaves turn yellow at first, and then they die completely.The reason why greenhouse cucumbers turn yellow, it may also be that the plant is too thickened, there is poor ventilation or a greenhouse soil is loosened enough.
