In winter, a gardener, in most cases, tries to rest and gain strength before the next season.

But if you have a full-fledged greenhouse, then you should not stop caring for it even during the cold season.

During the winter, a number of works need to be carried out in the greenhouse to make it ready for the next season.

Let us turn to the recommendations of the expert of the online publication Belnovosti and agronomist Anastasia Kovrizhnykh.

  1. Tidy up. Remove plant debris, pathogens and various trash, which is best burned.
  2. Strengthen the structure. This is especially true for a polycarbonate greenhouse. At least install supports.
  3. Ventilate the greenhouse. This will allow the soil to freeze well and deeply, which will kill some of the pest larvae.
  4. Throw snow into the greenhouse. In the spring, the soil will be moist enough to grow crops.
  5. Clear the snow. Otherwise, it may break when the thaw sets in.

We have previously touched on the topic of what to do at the dacha in December.
