It is necessary to find out if there is any serious damage to the glass, polyethylene or polycarbonate.

If large cracks are still present, it is necessary to partially or completely replace the material.

It is also necessary to make sure that there are no problems with the metal frame.

If the summer resident does not perform a timely inspection of the greenhouse, the latter may collapse.

Remove trash

After winter, a heated greenhouse often contains various plant debris and old pegs.

All of this needs to be removed immediately so that there are no problems with growing crops in the new summer cottage season.

Wash the greenhouse

One should not forget about such an important procedure as restoring the cleanliness of the greenhouse coverings.

It is necessary to wipe both the inside and outside of the greenhouse. It is advisable to use soapy water. The liquid should be prepared on the basis of laundry soap.

Cleaning must be carried out very carefully: the product should not get into the soil.

It is also important to disinfect surfaces. Copper sulfate has proven itself to be a good remedy.

Earlier, summer residents were told what they needed to do with currants in early spring.
