There are literally a few days left until the beginning of the final month of spring.
At the end of April, a summer resident needs to perform several important actions on his country plot.
What procedures exactly are we talking about? This question was answered by the expert of the online publication "BelNovosti", scientist-agronomist and landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh .
Attach trapping belts to trees
In May, the air temperature is likely to be quite high.
During this period, many insects will appear in the garden, posing a danger to the trees.
To protect plants from pests, trapping belts should be attached to the trunk. These are special traps. They can be sticky or soaked in pest control products.
Loosen the soil
The soil cover must be processed in order to retain moisture and improve the soil structure.
The soil must be prepared for the upcoming planting of garden crops.
Prepare potatoes for planting
In May (or even at the end of April) many gardeners will begin planting potatoes.
The tubers need to be subjected to dry or wet germination.
Sowing some crops
April is the ideal time for sowing dill, parsley, carrots and peas in open ground.
It also makes sense to plant spring garlic.
Earlier, summer residents were told how to transplant elongated tomato seedlings.
