Timely care for garden trees Dachniks is a joke called "the cultivation of a baby." Follow the trees should always be, at any time of the year. Of course, we are not talking about daily stay in the garden, but it will still have to pay due attention. An important agrotechnical reception and secret of a luxurious garden lies in the right care in spring and autumn. It is necessary not only to water the trees in time, loosen the soil and feed them, it is necessary to take care of the tree crust. She is the first to hit: temperature fluctuations, burns of sunshine, attack pests-cores, etc., which is why it is so important to protect the bark by performing a garden paint processing to protect trees.

Putting the snow, as dacms are accepted for work. Early spring is the most favorable time to care for garden trees. Processing the crown of the tree in Russia has long become a tradition. Recall the 60s, in those days each tree in the garden and in the city were leaving a lime solution. Now there is a more efficient method - processing trees of garden paint. Why do you need to do, not every newcomer will be able to answer. An experienced gardener will recommend to process the bark of trees not 1, and at least 2 times a year - early spring and late autumn. Moreover, painting the crown has certain requirements. For example, in the spring it is necessary to paint trees immediately after snow comes down. Be sure to comply with one condition so that during the treatment of the tree Earth was still cold and did not have time to warm up. This is important because the bugs and other insects have not had time in the cold earth. Teaches or special garden paint scare the pests and they will not be able to climb the crown up. The second point - many bugs and insects fall into the hibernation in a secluded place - in the tree crust. As soon as the sun's rays begin to warm the bark, they wake up and are accepted for business. Pests of wood bark are scare away with a special garden solution for trees. It turns out that the paint is forever seal pests in the crust, and they die there.

Autumn trees treatment is as important as spring. She protects the young fruit trees from explosion into severe frosts and from bright spring rays. A dark trunk of a tree can be punished from the dazzling frosty sun, and the tree may die. Therefore, the processing of plants of garden paint must be carried out in the fall, when the air temperature reaches the mark + 2-5 ^oWITH.

Lime or garden paint for whitewash trees?

20 years ago, the gardeners used a special solution for whitening trees based on hazed lime. Now there is an opinion that he can wish the bark of young trees and stop their growth. Here opinions are divided. Some experts believe that a concentrated lime solution can harm, so for young trees it is necessary to breed lime in more water. Other gardeners argue that if you think about the harm from lime and not to do the trees, then from sunburn trees can die at all. This is especially true if the seedling grows in the open space.

When processing the trunks of trees with a lime solution, you can achieve a good effect, but it should be remembered that one lime divorced in water will not be enough. Therefore, it is necessary to add an adhesive to lime. The solution must be homogeneous, the thickness of the layer is not more than 3 mm.

A solution for whitewashing trees can be bought on the market, in specialized stores or prepare on their own. The presence of the adhesive component is necessary, otherwise the glasses will stay on the crust until the first rain. An important condition - the color of the solution should be exactly white, and not gray or beige, to securely protect the tree from sunlight and temperature drops.

How to cook whitewash:

1. Instruct in 10 liters of 2 kg of hazed lime.
2. Add 250 g of copper vapor to the contents.
3. Put 1 kg of clay (preferably oily).
4. Optionally, you can add 1 or 2 shovels of the cow manure.

The ingredients are thoroughly mixed to the consistency of the rare sour cream. When the mixture is applied to the tree, it should not flock through the streams. If flows, it means you need to make a mixture of more thick and add more clays. The prepared boron is easier to process than the bug, so before Poching it is necessary to pay attention to the preparation of trees. It is important to clean the barrel from the old dry bark, remove the lichen. This part of the work is desirable to perform in gloves manually to not injure the bark of the tree. Clear small recesses or cracks can be sharply sharpened by a wooden stick. Cleaned boron must immediately burn.

The second preparatory moment - processing the trunk of the tree disinfectors. This may be any copper-containing solution (3-5%). There are 300 g of copper vapor on 10 liters of water. A soap solution with the addition of wood ash will be useful for plants. On 200 g of ashes, you need to take 5 grams of household soap and 1 l of hot water.

It is important before paving or treating trees garden paint to close fresh wounds. Mazzka can be made independently or buy a jar of Garden Vara in the store. Effectively heal wounds and cuts liquid clay, mixed with cow dung; Oil paint on the olife; A mixture of bee wax, rosin and fat.
