Cucumbers love this white fertilizer!

In this video I will tell you about the mandatory top dressing that must be applied every year in my garden, otherwise every year the harvest will be less and less. For a large harvest of cucumbers, they need to get all the nutrients in a form accessible to cucumbers, otherwise there will be little sense from fertilizing and the growth of cucumbers will be depressed, and the cucumbers themselves will bear fruit poorly. Therefore, water your cucumbers with this remedy and get a large harvest of cucumbers every year.

I just use milk with a pinch of baking soda....Soil Acidity or Alkalinity: The Pantry Soil pH Test
Place 2 tablespoons of soil in a bowl and add ½ cup vinegar. If the mixture fizzes, you have alkaline soil.
Place 2 tablespoons of soil in a bowl and moisten it with distilled water. Add ½ cup baking soda. If the mixture fizzes, you have acidic soil.

Or you can make my soil recipe for a large container pot.

I do container gardening up north in zone 5A and make my own homemade potting mix.

I start by using clay dug from my backyard I let it dry in the sun on my driveway then I crush it into a fine powder then sweep it up and collect it.

I used to use the topsoil as part of my base ingredients instead of clay, but I've found that the clay has way more minerals than the native topsoil in my backyard.

Basically I mix the clay, coarse garden perlite, compost, worm castings, coconut coir, plus inoculants and amendments together by hand.

Per 10 cubic foot giant wheelbarrow (1 batch):

5 gallons coconut coir

5 gallons of crushed powdered clay

5 gallons of locally-sourced earth worm castings

5 gallons of my homemade super compost (fortified with rock dust and charcoal)

5 gallons of coarse garden perlite

This is the bulk of my soil base mix. Then I add these inoculants and amendments to the base mix listed above.

(1)Bat Guano

(2)Bone meal

(3) blood meal

(4) rice hauls

(5) alfalfa meal

(6) kelp meal

(7) seaweed meal

(8) aged chicken manure

(9) green sand "mineral deposits from the ocean floor"

(10) feather meal

(11) mycorrhiza "a type of fungus"

(12) microorganism mix "multiple different types of microorganism bacteria"

(13) neem cake meal

(14) red wiggler worms about one dozen per flower pot depending on the pot size

If you could see through my soil would look like a tangled web of millions of white spider webs in the soil mixture, this is also known as Santa's Beard, it's a good thing 👍.

This is the holy grail of the home gardener, it's known as "soil hyphae" a type of mycorrhiza fungus network that has a beneficial symbiotic relationship with the vegetable plant roots.

If you're able to achieve this hyphae network magical things happen like absolute ridiculous yields from one plant, it's truly insane 😳👍.

I basically make a living soil and let the soil feed the plants (happy soil microbes happy plants)🤷.

The only time i actually feed the plants is maybe for the first 5 weeks. I might occasionally mix some fish emulsion with water depending on the current growth rate.

Basically if you build your soil properly in the beginning, there's really no reason to feed your plants in my very short grow season 🤷.

Happy gardening all hope this helps someone ✌️.

Its chalk, aka calcium carbonate. Its the same thing as in heartburn chews. It WILL reduce acidity, but will also feed calcium, which seems to be something fertilizers lack.

First people need to understand & know how to check soil PH. This is essential don't just assume the problem is PH. Buy a PH test kit, they're cheap & easy to use. Trying to remedy a PH issue when there is no PH issye will be disastrous.

[tater]

Chalk? I think the narrator means pulverized Lime. He's basically making a slurry. It'll raise the pH of the soil.
You can do the same thing with Peppers or tomatoes.

[natlee]

Thanks for sharing.
A genuine question for you, please:
Is it possible that the chalk mixture will later harden the soil?

[noob]

I use that anyway they grow so fast they're so happy

[anilsingla]

Dear sir how many days we can use again this fertilizer

[eunjoycekwon]

U can use ash baking soda biochar etcccc

[robert]

My cucumbers are looking terrible this spring, I did check the PH and found it's average from 4.6. - 5.5 ish or so, My understanding now is it should be 6 or 7,

[graycunningham]

Grow your own food that's the way to go if you can and if you have a little bit of land

For better long-term effects, crush eggshells and mix it with the soil. The more acidity in the soil, the faster the eggshells let out the calcium.

When you know the soil naturally turn acid, sprinkle crushed eggshells, so much you can't tell if the surface is white/beige with dark spots or dark with white/beige, one to three times a year, or more if the shells disappear sooner.

BUT also, a cup of yoghurt or buttermilk (check so it contains living lactic acid bacteria!! It's that you want!) is good for the natural micro system, especially if you use processed fertilizer, not natural.

A cheap alternative to processed fertilizer is sting nettles.
You can pick nettles and put in a bucket of water, put a lid on, let ferment for two weeks. Use it 1 part nettle water to 10 parts water. However, the stench is awful, and there's a non-smelly way too. Pick the nettles, let them dry, crush them and mix into the soil. A lot of it. That will also make the earthworms happy, any dead plants are food for them. They eat plants, and poop out the best fertilizer any living plant could ever have! Be nice to your earthworms!!

Remember that the quality of the WATER can affect the soil too.

Use baking soda to increase the pH of the soil.

What is the name of this white fruid substance that he used in this video

[danadeaton]

Hard to find regular old school white chalk. Now its "low dust formula" which isnt the same. Online on A didnt have any either

[pattis]

Can I mix the chalk into the banana water?

[geoffs]

if they look depressed its a mental health problem, treat with valium or zanax, this will help to gain the upper hand lol

If you have an abundance of nutrients, your plant will adjust the Ph at the rhizosphere. Do a soil test and fill the voids qere nutrients is needed.
