Before the first frosts arrive, summer residents need to manage to do several important things.
It is important to listen to the advice of experts, and not to what your neighbors say. The autumn to-do list includes three important items.
Anastasia Kovrizhnykh, an expert of the online publication "BelNovosti" - a scientist agronomist and landscape designer, told what to do at the dacha in the fall.
First, cleaning
You need to start by cleaning up fallen leaves, fruits, and vegetation in the garden.
All of this is mistakenly called a source of nutrients for the soil.
In fact, it is a food source and shelter for pests, as well as pathogenic bacteria.
Secondly, processing
It is necessary to carry out treatment against pests and diseases.
At this time, it is recommended to use a solution of iron sulfate (5%).
Afterwards, you can begin whitewashing the tree trunks to protect them from sunburn in the winter.
Then you need to cover the tree trunks from rodents.
Thirdly, the vegetable garden
If necessary, you need to dig up the beds and add fertilizer, or sow green manure.
It is also necessary to prepare beds for planting winter crops.
