Whitewashing trees is a very useful procedure that protects garden crops from the harmful effects of direct sunlight and from parasitic insects.
However, sometimes whitewashing trees can cause more problems than good.
Agronomist Anastasia Kovrizhnykh explained what you should pay attention to when carrying out this procedure.
According to the expert, it is worth eliminating the inaccuracies common among many summer residents.
All summer residents should know
Bleaching should be carried out only in the autumn period, when the movement of liquids inside the tree occurs.
Whitewashing can also be done in winter to prevent the crop from being damaged by frost cracks.
In no case should you whitewash trees in the spring, especially in the late spring – it makes no sense, because garden crops do not need this procedure.
Earlier we talked about how to protect a plot from strong winds so that garden plants are not damaged.
