Even if you leave for the city until spring, the harvest remains in the cellar and will have to be checked periodically.
In winter, you should come to your dacha to check the harvest if you don’t want to find an unpleasant picture in the spring.
Therefore, before you leave for the city for a long period, you can do the check for the first time.
Let's turn to the recommendations of the expert of the online publication "Belnovosti" and agronomist Anastasia Kovrizhnykh.
What you need to pay special attention to
First of all, you need to check potatoes and cabbage, which do not store well in conditions of high humidity.
Tubers and fruits with minor signs of damage should be immediately separated from healthy ones and disposed of.
The heads of cabbage need to be cleaned of rot or sent for processing into a dish or in the form of sauerkraut.
It is also important to inspect the canned goods and remove any spoiled products - swollen metal lids and active fermentation will serve as a guide.
