In autumn there is less and less work to do in the garden and vegetable patch.
However, even when plants are not bearing fruit, they need care.
Let's figure out what moisture-charging irrigation is and why trees need moisture even before the onset of winter.
Moisture-charging irrigation
Let's start with the fact that although trees go into hibernation mode, the roots continue to do their job of saturating the plant with moisture.
This is why they are watered in the fall to provide the trees with moisture before the start of the new season.
It is important that the water is below the freezing level, that is, at a depth of approximately one and a half meters.
It is also important to choose the right watering period, which must be done before the first frost, but after the trees have shed their leaves.
The need for watering is determined by the condition of the soil. If it easily forms a wet lump that leaves a wet trace behind, then watering the soil is not necessary.
And if the lump crumbles, the garden needs proper watering. On average, depending on the age of the tree, it will need from 3 to 6 buckets of water.
