The second month of spring is a busy period for summer residents.

Gardeners will definitely not suffer from idleness, because many crops need to be planted. First of all, we are talking about root crops and legumes.

Also, don't forget about other types of gardening work. For example, watering plants, applying fertilizers, pest control, and soil cultivation.

There is so much to do that owners of country houses sometimes get lost. Some people have difficulty making a work plan for the second ten days of April.

However, if you use the recommendations of the lunar calendar, the task will be significantly simplified.

April 10

The first day of the new week is named in the lunar calendar as suitable for working with the above-ground parts of plants.

Today it is worth adding nutrients to the soil, removing weeds and using means against dangerous insects.

You can also graft fruit trees and remove excess shoots.

Working with the root system of garden crops is not welcome today. It is also not worth overdoing it with watering.

April 11

On Tuesday, you need to continue active work in the countryside.

This day is ideal for fighting pests and weeds.

But you should avoid pinching. Also, do not over-water the beds.

April 12

On this day, it is advisable to take a break from gardening work.

However, if a person does come to a country plot, he can plant root crops, peas, beans and onions.

Picking is an undesirable procedure today.

April 13

On Thursday, it is worth returning to active work in the garden and vegetable garden. It is worth planting beets, carrots and radishes.

It also makes sense to thin out the seedlings, apply fertilizers and protect garden crops from pests.

The fourth day of this week is not suitable for abundant watering of plants.

April 14

It's too early to relax on Friday. There's a lot of work to do, because it's hard to find a more suitable day for planting root crops, onions, and peas.

In addition, it is necessary to remove excess branches from fruit trees and treat the soil cover.

April 15

On the first day off, summer residents should suspend their gardening activities.

But if you can’t postpone gardening work, you can plant turnips, carrots, beans and onions.

Activities such as fertilizing plants are also not prohibited.

But working with the root system and pinching are not recommended today. Excessive zeal in replenishing the moisture deficit in the soil will also not lead to anything good.

April 16

It is advisable to continue the rest period.

If a summer resident cannot help but engage in activities related to the garden and vegetable garden today, he can purchase new equipment and use preparations against plant diseases.
