How to feed watermelons: effective feeding options

No matter how hot the summer is, tasty and sweet watermelons will not grow on their own in your garden if you do not feed them..

This is not the most difficult process, and you will only have to add additives three times per season..

First feeding

It is carried out after transplanting seedlings to the beds. It is carried out 10-12 days later.

At this stage, you can add a solution of:

  • superphosphate – 100 gr.
  • potassium sulfate – 30 g.
  • ammonium nitrate – 10 g.
  • The ingredients are added per 10 liters. Fertilizer consumption is 2-3 liters for each seedling.

    Second feeding

    It is carried out with the same composition, at the stage when the plant begins to actively form lateral shoots.

    This time, the consumption of the solution increases – about 4-5 liters for each seedling.

    Third feeding

    It is carried out during the period of bud formation and ovary formation.

    At this time, watermelons are fed with ash infusion, which is prepared from 3 tbsp. l. wood ash and 1 liter of water.

    The fertilizer is infused for 24 hours.
