For a good grape harvest, proper feeding is important. It is important to know some secrets.
What fertilizers do grapes prefer
The most popular fertilizers for grapes are nitrogen, potassium and phosphorus.

This substance also accelerates photosynthesis, which is beneficial for grapes.
Phosphorus is necessary for the plant for the rapid development of the root system.
The microelement also stimulates flowering and fruiting of grapes.
