What paint to choose for whitewashing trees: almost all summer residents make mistakes
Thoughtful gardeners approach the issue of whitewashing trees meticulously.
The work is important because it protects plants from the scorching sun and frost, and the activity of pests.
However, whitewashing is useful when everything is selected, prepared and applied correctly.
Experienced gardeners have listed the main mistakes that many gardeners make when preparing whitewash for trees.
Experts advise not to rush into the procedure. Firstly, poor whitewashing will be washed away very quickly by autumn or spring rains.
Secondly, there is a nuance with paint. You can unknowingly buy a low-quality ingredient. Then the work done will also be in vain. It is better to choose a more expensive one, and many advanced summer residents take paint that already contains antimicrobial components.
If you use regular paint, you need to add copper sulfate to it yourself. It will protect the trees from diseases. In addition, many gardeners have noticed that rodents avoid such plants.
