Growing and care

There are two ways of growing cucumber A friendly family. The southern regions prefer to plant seeds immediately, and in the more northern regions they stop growing seedlings. Regardless of the method, the material is prepared before sowing:

  • seeds are disinfected in a solution of potassium permanganate for 2-3 hours;
  • dried during the day and placed in a saline solution;
  • carry out the selection of seeds, leaving only those that have sunk to the bottom of the container.

Sometimes additional seed treatment is carried out with growth stimulants. If you plan to grow seedlings, work begins 4 weeks before the main planting in the ground or greenhouse. The planting of cucumbers in the greenhouse is carried out around the second half of April.

Simultaneously with the preparation of the seeds, they begin to pour boiling water over the beds, followed by loosening the soil in a day. The procedure is repeated every three days. Additionally, organic fertilizers are introduced, as well as special formulations for the prevention of diseases and pests.

Planting stages and scheme are determined based on the growing method. If everything is clear with seeds, then with seedlings it is not so easy.

Stages.

  1. The processed and selected seeds are transferred into prepared containers with fertile soil, deepening by 2 cm.
  2. Glasses are placed in a warm place where the sun's rays are accessible. When sprouts appear, the temperature is reduced to 20 degrees or rearranged to partial shade. Additional dressing, if a high-quality soil mixture for cucumbers was used, is not required.
  3. The seedlings are hardened 3 days before transplanting into the ground.

Transplanting seedlings is performed a month after planting seeds in containers in warm and sunny weather. It is important that the soil has time to warm up to 16 degrees Celsius, otherwise there is a high probability that the roots will die. The scheme is 50x70 cm, there should be 4-5 seedlings per 1 m2.

To achieve the maximum yield will help not only timely planting, but also competent care.

Stages.

  1. Watering. It is recommended to add warm settled water to the ground. Cucumbers should be watered at the root once a week in good weather. In drought, watering is increased, in the rainy season, it is reduced. If cucumbers are grown on clay soils, then frequent watering in this case is not recommended.
  2. Garter and shrub formation. The bushes must not be thick, otherwise it will affect the taste characteristics of the fruit. When the shoots reach a height of 10 cm, it is worth taking care of the garter of the culture. To do this, use pegs and sturdy fabric scraps.
  3. Top dressing. The first fertilizers are applied to the soil even before the seedlings are planted. After planting, the plants are additionally protected from recurrent frost with a mullein solution mixed with bird droppings. As they grow, the bushes are fed with complex or organic compounds.

Additionally, gardeners recommend hilling cucumbers to stimulate their growth. Loosening will provide the plant roots with the necessary amount of oxygen and nutrients. Do not give up on weeding either.

In order to collect strong, tasty and beautiful cucumbers on your site, you need to make top dressing. Lack of nutrients can negatively affect the appearance of the plant and significantly reduce the yield. Fertilize cucumbers with organic fertilizers in combination with mineral fertilizers. With the right balance of these components and adherence to the fertilizing schedule, the cucumber yield will be maximum.

Disease and pest resistance

The Druzhnaya Semeyka variety is distinguished by strong immunity. The plant is resistant to:

  • mosaic;
  • olive spot;
  • powdery mildew.

However, this does not mean that the cucumber is not at all susceptible to diseases and pests. In order to prevent and improve the health of the plant, it is regularly sprayed with solutions containing fungicides.

Despite their popularity, cucumbers are often attacked by diseases and pests. From them, cucumber plantings often die before the start of fruiting. In order to prevent this from happening, it is necessary to try to prevent ailments or get rid of them at the very beginning, having studied in detail their causes of occurrence, signs and methods of treatment.
