Another summer cottage season is coming to an end. During this period, every owner of a country plot should carefully examine all garden plants.
You need to make sure that there are no fruits on the trees and bushes.
It just happens sometimes that summer residents forget to pick some fruits and berries during harvesting.
If the fruits are still present, then measures must be taken. This was recalled by the expert of the online publication "BelNovosti", scientist-agronomist and landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh .
What to do with the fruits
All unharvested fruits must be immediately removed from the plant and thrown away as far from the garden plot as possible.
If this is not done at the end of November or the beginning of December, the consequences could be very serious.
The fact is that blackened fruits and berries remaining on plants are an excellent environment for dangerous microorganisms.
In addition, it is possible that the fruit contains dangerous insects that can easily survive the winter.
A tree or bush that has unpicked fruit throughout the cold season will become vulnerable to various diseases.
Moreover, neighboring plants may also face problems. The risk of several trees dying at once will be very high.
