There are only a few days left until the beginning of the second half of October.
During this period, every summer resident must have time to complete several important tasks on his country plot.
So, we need to free the garden from two unnecessary “components”.
An expert of the online publication "BelNovosti", agronomist and landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh addressed gardeners with an important reminder.
Weeds
By approximately October 15, the owner of a summer cottage must remove all weeds growing in the garden.
The same needs to be done in the garden.
Why is it so important to remove weeds in the first half of the second autumn month?
The fact is that weeds remaining on the site even after the onset of severe frosts will continue to “draw” important components from the soil.
If you do not finish the fight against excess plants before the cold period begins, these representatives of the flora will “overwinter” without any problems and continue to cause serious problems in the next summer cottage season.
Fallen leaves
It is also worth clearing away fallen leaves from the garden.
And this needs to be done not only to improve the appearance of the site.
It is important to remember that leaf blades left on the ground can cause the spread of diseases and insects that are dangerous to plants.
Therefore, do not be lazy to remove fallen leaves in time.
