Cucumber
Cucumber - one of the most common and favorite vegetable crops, fruits of which we consume in a sour green, and throughout the year in fresh (greenhouse cucumbers), low-salted, pickled and salted form. Cucumber contains a large amount of sodium, chlorine, fiber and other nutrients. Cucumber - one-year heat-loving cross-pollination plant with separated-estrous flowers, belongs to the family Cucurbitaceous.

Consumption rate of working solution is 200-300 l / ha.
It is advisable to combine feeding with the introduction of crop protection and urea (if necessary).
If necessary, it is recommended to use «ROSTOK» Molybdenum and «ROSTOK» Manganese.
The content of nutrients in fertilizers «UAROSTOK»® and doses of entering are designed according to the needs of plants in the components during a period of growth and development.
The use of fertilizers «UAROSTOK»® promotes:
- improving the vitality of seeds;
- increasing photosynthesis intensity by 10-40%;
- reducing stress features for plants from soil-climatic and anthropogenic factors;
- strengthening plant resistance to disease;
- increasing the number of productive flowers and weight of fruits;
- increasing the harvesting of crop by 10-15%;
- improvement of fruit quality indexes (increasing of content of vitamins, including vitamin C, solids, sugars, reducing nitrates in compound).

The plants of cucumber are taken in number of 1 ton from 1 ha basic and appropriate number of by-products, kg: calcium - 30 magnesium - 13; g: iron - 94, manganese - 9.6, boron - 1.5, zinc - 3.3, copper - 1.7, molybdenum - 0.1. Cucumber plants are especially sensitive to the availability of calcium and manganese to it, medium - magnesium and copper, low-sensitive to - boron, zinc and molybdenum. Unbalanced nitrogen nutrition and growing cucumbers in soils with poor consistence of micronutrients (molybdenum, iron, copper, manganese, boron, sulfur) commits to increasing the nitrate content in products.
