Why cucumber leaves turn yellow, you need to hurry to correct the situation
May 12 – NVL. If you notice that the leaves of your cucumbers are starting to turn yellow, do not rush to panic and do not immediately turn to chemical fertilizers and pesticides.
When the leaves of cucumbers begin to turn yellow, this is not always associated with diseases or root rot – often the cause is a lack of trace elements. There is a simple solution to this problem: nettle infusion, which helps to cope with iron deficiency. To do this, you need to collect nettles without seeds, fill it with water and leave for a day, then dilute the resulting infusion and pour cucumbers under the root. The result will not be long in coming – the cucumbers will once more become green and taste good.

This method helps to compensate for iron deficiency in cucumbers, which is often the cause of yellowing and wilting of the leaves. Nettle infusion contains iron and other beneficial trace elements that help cucumbers quickly restore health and return green color to the leaves. After feeding, cucumber bushes usually quickly begin to show signs of improvement, and subsequently can produce healthier and tastier fruits.
Nettle is a source of many beneficial elements that can have a positive effect on cucumbers and other plants. Nettle solution contains such important trace elements as iron, magnesium, calcium, potassium, copper, boron, zinc, manganese and phosphorus.

Iron is essential for the production of chlorophyll, which is the main pigment in green plants and essential for the process of photosynthesis. Magnesium is also necessary for the formation of chlorophyll, and is also involved in protein synthesis and regulates plant metabolism. Calcium strengthens plant cell walls, and potassium is an important macronutrient that is involved in the regulation of plant water balance and contributes to disease resistance.
Copper, boron, zinc, manganese and phosphorus are also essential for plant health. Copper is involved in the formation of chlorophyll and accelerates plant growth. Boron is necessary for the growth and development of roots, flowering and fruiting. Zinc contributes to the formation of chlorophyll and proteins, and manganese is involved in photosynthesis and regulates the level of soil acidity. Phosphorus is essential for root development, stem strengthening and improved flowering and fruiting of plants.
