Even if the first weeks of winter were cold, this does not mean that the weather conditions will not change until the beginning of March.
The possibility of a thaw in December, January and February should not be ruled out.
If the air temperature suddenly increases in winter, then the summer resident should visit his country plot.
First of all, to check the cellar and to save the harvest stored there.
An expert from the online publication BelNovosti, agronomist and landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh , reminded us of this important procedure.
What to do in the cellar during the winter thaw
In winter, many summer residents store tubers and root vegetables in this room.
A thaw increases the risk of losing the entire harvest. The reason is the increase in air humidity.
To correct the situation, the summer resident should open the ventilation in the cellar. If this is done in time, the vegetables will not rot even during the thaw.
In addition, the condition of the crop must be checked. All spoiled tubers and root crops must be removed from the boxes and thrown away to prevent the spread of diseases.
Earlier, the expert explained why it is necessary to sprinkle seedlings with ground cinnamon.
