In June, gardeners who grow onions on their plots must make special fertilizers. It is during this period that the culture best absorbs nutrients.

To get large and juicy bulbs, you need to resort to the help of three fertilizers. Each of them must be made at one time or another.
June 1-10
During this period, it is important to use nitrogen-based fertilizers. Calcium nitrate is considered an excellent option. You need to dilute 12 grams of the substance per 10 liters of water. This solution is necessary to water the roots of plantings. The advantage of this method is that it stimulates the growth of the pen. Once the beneficial micronutrients accumulate in the greens, they are transferred to the bulb.
June 10-20
The second stage is the introduction of potassium monophosphate. Preparation is prepared as follows: 15 grams per 10 liters of water. Three days after watering, this solution is fed with chicken manure (a liter jar of excrement to fill with nine liters of water and leave for two days; then use 500 milliliters of infusion per 10 liters of water).
June 20-30
The third topdressing should be brought not earlier than a week after the previous. The choice of a particular fertilizer will depend on the condition of the feathers and bulbs.
If the pen looks weak, you will need a nitrogen-containing solution – 1 tablespoon of ammonia per five liters of water. Onions should be sprayed once in the evening.
If the bulb increases in size, it is important to support its development. This can be done with an extract of wood ash. How to prepare the solution: a liter of sifted ash pour nine liters of boiling water and leave for two days. At the end of the required time, mix 500 milliliters of solution with nine liters of water.
