What to do if the soil in your garden is covered with a reddish coating: try pouring boiling water over it
Sometimes, the soil in your garden may develop “rust,” which looks like a reddish coating.
An experienced gardener knows that this is a sign of a disease that can negatively affect the yield.
Like any disease, it requires urgent treatment - fortunately, if the beds are not in a neglected state, the gardener has time to cope with the disease.
Let's turn to the recommendations of the expert of the online publication "Belnovosti" and scientist agronomist Anastasia Kovrizhnykh.
How to deal with "rust"?
Rust usually appears due to the large amount of iron contained in the water – it appears on the surface of the soil or between the veins of the crop.
Fungus can also cause the appearance of a reddish coating.
The first and simplest solution is to pour boiling water over the soil.
But if this does not help, then in the autumn you will have to use the drug Fitosporin-M or one of its analogues.
