This early vegetable can be grown up direct crops in soil. But if you want to indulge yourself with early cucumbers, take care of seedling. The maximum prize on time turns out when landing cucumber plants with 3-4 real leaves.
Instruction
1. One of troubles on cucumber beds - barren flower. That efforts with cultivation of seedling were not vain, the choice should be stopped on partenokarpichesky hybrids: F1 Spirit, Murashk's F1, F1 Mother-in-law, F1 Zyatek, F1 Speed, Bimbo's F1... They differ not only stable harvests under any weather conditions (have mainly female type of blossoming, cucumber grows from each ovary and without pollination), but also excellent tastes. Fructification begins in 25-30 days after planting of seedling. They cost expensive, sellers put no more than ten seeds, but this quantity in bags to you quite will be enough for receiving early products for two seasons.
2. Usually seeds of hybrids go on sale already had preseeding training (inlaid) therefore to organize them additional procedures (soaking, warming up...) in house conditions is not necessary. Main - not quantity, but quality.
3. Plants for the subsequent preparations can quite be grown up direct crops in soil. But if the spring late and cold, then is more practical all cucumbers to grow up through seedling. Only it is necessary to land it on beds with one present sheet. The plants are younger, the easier they transfer change.
4. Cucumber seedling is grown up with sword-play. In the beginning couch seeds in transparent small container with cover. Display them directly on bottom, from above powder with centimetric layer of damp sawdust or peat.
5. When at cucumbers cotyledonous leaves are formed, transplant them on separate glasses. They are taken out easily. Before landing it is possible to add in water container, seedlings then will emerge - take and transplant. Further you can pass cucumbers one more time, already in big ware.
6. At first seedling needs the temporary shelter. At cold snap from above in addition throw film or nonwoven fabric. If for landing you use purchased seedling mix on the basis of peat, surely feed up seedling as soon as plants have the first present sheet. It is the best of all to use infusion of mullein (1:10) or bird's dung (1:25), but it is possible also liquid organomineral fertilizers (the potassium/sodium humate, biohumus, reasit, oksidat peat).
7. Take away bed for cucumbers on the solar place. Arrange it since fall: dig out trench of 40 cm in depth and 60 cm wide. Bed length any. Anyway the productivity on such beds is always higher. They not only warm, but also very fertile. In groove stack all plant debris (the chopped small branches, straw, leaves, the weeded weeds, etc.), in process of its filling trample down garbage. In the spring once again well stamp contents, spill the mullein divorced with water or chicken dung (it is possible the medicines "Fitosporin", "Baikal", "Siyaniye") and fill up with earlier taken out fertile soil layer in 20-25 cm. Cover with film and in two weeks plant cucumbers.
