How to Prepare and Apply the Fertilizer
- Ferment the Rice Water – Soak a cup of rice in water for 24 hours. Strain the liquid and let it sit in a covered container at room temperature for another day. This process allows beneficial bacteria to develop.
- Mix the Ingredients – In a large bucket, combine the fermented rice water with the other ingredients and stir well.
- Dilute the Solution – Add 10 liters of water to ensure the mixture is not too concentrated.
- Apply to the Soil – Pour 1-2 cups of the solution around the base of each cucumber plant in the evening.
- Foliar Spray Option – Strain the liquid again, put it into a spray bottle, and lightly mist the leaves to enhance nutrient absorption through the foliage.
