Despite the fact that in winter there is in most cases nothing to do in the garden, the plot may still need the attention of the summer resident.
In particular, fruit trees should be carefully inspected.
Agronomist Anastasia Kovrizhnykh told what dangers plums, pears and apple trees may face in January.
According to the expert, possible problems should not be ignored, otherwise the harvest will only be a dream.
Advice for summer residents
If there has been heavy snowfall outside, you should immediately go to the garden and examine the tree branches.
If necessary, you need to shake snow off the trees so that their branches do not break under the pressure of precipitation.
You should also inspect the trunk circles of plum, pear and apple trees. There may be tiny holes left by hungry rodents nearby.
If there really are holes, they should be covered with snow, after first putting poison for rodents in them.
