Many summer residents think about why the ovaries of cucumbers turn yellow, as they periodically encounter this problem. It needs to be considered comprehensively. And in order to get to the truth, why the ovaries of cucumbers turn yellow, you need to eliminate all the negative factors that affect this unfavorable process and put in the foreground the question of what to do. After all, even with an outwardly healthy plant, a beautiful green stem, the problem can lie in completely unexpected, seemingly at first glance, things. To begin with, it is only worthwhile to understand that a certain amount of drying of flowers is normal, because. the plant must throw out more ovaries than it can grow.

This is reason number one. Pollination is an important part in the formation of any fruit. Unfruitful ovaries simply fall off the bush. Why is this happening?

So, temperature is important for the pollination process. At temperatures above thirty-five degrees in the greenhouse, pollen becomes sterile. Also, the bees do not want to fly into the greenhouse if it is too stuffy there. What to do if the bees do not fly? Ventilate, but do not create sudden temperature changes.

Out in the open, this shouldn't be a problem. It is worth waiting out the bad weather and pollinating bees will reappear.

Plants densely planted

When planting seedlings in the ground, it is important to correctly distribute and calculate the area necessary for the normal growth of one bush. This is important because densely planted plants interfere with the normal development of neighboring ones, do not allow the root system to develop, and also begin to shade each other, which leads to a lack of light. Of course, the latter problem is more typical for plants grown in greenhouses than in the open. Therefore, it is worth remembering that cucumbers have a fairly well-developed vegetative system, so they need to be planted according to the instructions. But in any case, the landing pattern should not be denser than two or three cucumber bushes per square meter of land. You also need to remember to remove tendrils and remove side shoots to avoid weakening the mother bush.
