Experienced gardeners in their practice try to use only those methods that allow them to achieve excellent results without harming the site.
Therefore, in their arsenal you can find very curious and interesting tools.
For example, many gardeners try to get out into the coniferous forest in order to collect more pine cones.
How they are used in the country
Many people know that cones are often used to create decorative compositions, including in the garden. However, this is only an additional method of application.
Cones are mainly valued for their unique ability to defeat snails and slugs. If you use them as a "fence" around the perimeter of the plot and beds, then slugs simply will not be able to get into the garden. Cones have a specific aroma and a rather unpleasant texture that injures the delicate skin of pests, notes agronomist and landscape designer, expert of the online publication "BelNovosti" Anastasia Kovrizhnykh .
Therefore, with the help of a free product, you can easily protect plants from slugs and snails. It is also worth considering that cones do not have a negative effect on the acidity level of the soil, which is not the case with needles used for the same purpose.
There is another advantage of cones: it is believed that their presence on the site reduces the likelihood of developing dangerous fungal diseases.
