But the tool has proven its effectiveness, and now many summer residents cannot imagine growing cucumbers without using fertilizer based on this acid.

It is simple to use: 1 g is diluted in a bucket of water. Before applying the product, the soil must be moist.

However, the use of citric acid is unacceptable when the acidity of the soil is at a good level or higher than normal.

You can check the acidity level yourself. For this you need 9% table vinegar. Pour half a glass of water, boil, cool, add 2 tbsp. l. of soil from the site and mix well.

If there is no reaction, this indicates that the soil on the site is quite acidic. If there are several bubbles in the glass, then the soil is suitable for sowing cucumbers. If there are a lot of bubbles, the soil should be deacidified.
