Now is the time to think about how you will restore the soil for the new season.
It is believed that events should begin to be held from the end of this month.
You can also add nutrients in early October, but later soil improvement procedures will be of little use.
Therefore, it is worth remembering what rules for adding nutrients in the autumn period should be applied.
What do they consist of?
Nitrogen
This type of fertilizer is good for the beginning of the season, but it is not worth applying in the fall. The fact is that plants (perennials) can begin to produce shoots.
They will not become strong, so the culture may die.
Compatibility
Not all fertilizers can be used in combination: sometimes such "friendship" causes more harm than good. Therefore, before applying, it is always worth finding out about the compatibility of certain preparations.
For example, lime should never be mixed with phosphorus or potassium.
Mulch
After you have added all the necessary nutrients, you should not leave the soil unattended. It is worth using a mulch layer.
In this case, fertilizers will be most effective.
