One of the important tasks in the garden is preparing trees for the winter season.
It is extremely important to take care of the integrity of the bark, as cracks are dangerous for fruit trees.
Some are sure that no actions will be effective enough during periods of extremely low temperatures. However, the expert of the online publication "BelNovosti", scientist agronomist and landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh is sure that some proven methods will cope with the task perfectly.
What can you pay attention to?
Plain burlap
This material is recognized by many as one of the best. Burlap can be even better than roofing felt, which protects against frost well, but does not allow air to enter.
It is best to fasten the material with wire. Make sure that it does not exert too much pressure, but does not "hang" either.
Burlap can cover a very significant part of the trunk, which is also a very excellent quality.
Clay
Not everyone chooses traditional whitewashing, preferring clay. This is due to the fact that the product can be applied even to branches.
First, you need to dilute the substance with water, mix it and leave it for 48 hours. If necessary, you can even add a little copper sulfate as a disease prevention measure.
After that we start processing the trees.
