Harvesting until the last cucumber

It's time to collect everything that has grown in your beds. If you have greens, you can dry them or, which is much more convenient, freeze them. To freeze, dill, parsley, celery, sorrel must first be washed, then dried on a towel and cut. Chopped greens are placed in bags, expelled excess air and frozen with briquettes. You can freeze bell peppers, peas in pods, and other vegetables that you are used to adding to dishes. If there are green tomatoes left on the bushes, they will also be used, you can roll up a salad or make a sourdough from them.

What are the mandatory things to do in the fall at the dacha — Let nothing be lost, this is the motto of the zealous owner

Remove everything, every last weed

You can not leave anything in the beds. Leaves, stems, roots - all this must be removed from the soil. If the plants were healthy, they can be sent to a compost heap, where they will turn into organic fertilizer in a year.

Weeds can also be sent there, in compost, only without roots and seeds. Wild plants are so tenacious that they are able to remain viable in rotting compost.

General cleaning and return of revelers

If you planted something in the garden in flowerpots in the summer, it's time to decide the further fate of these plants. In flowerpots, they will die as soon as it gets colder. So either in the compost - or in warm rooms. The freed pots must not only be shaken out, but also rinsed so that mold does not form in them and some disease does not settle. For prevention, it is better to rinse them with a solution of vinegar or at least laundry soap.

If you planted indoor flowers in the garden for the summer, this is very good. Ultraviolet light, fresh air, rainwater and natural fertilizers will provide them with energy for the winter. But you gotta get the revelers home before they catch a cold

Fertilization with natural substances

Autumn is the time for natural fertilization. It is until the beginning of the next season that all natural fertilizers will be able to master your beds and make them fertile.

If your compost is ripe, you need to put it on the soil and dig it up

Another option for organic fertilization is planting green manure. These are plants that, after the emergence of seedlings, can be dug up directly from the roots and stems.

Siderata are oats, clover, mustard, legumes

Mulch use

To keep the nutrients in the soil to the maximum, it must be covered, that is, mulched. For this purpose, straw, sawdust or hay are suitable.

The soil covered with mulch warms up faster in spring, retains moisture and does not freeze in winter

Preparing perennial plants for winter

Autumn is the time for pruning both bushes and trees. Nothing should be left without attention, especially shrubs - the next year's harvest definitely depends on their pruning.

Pruning should be done correctly. Take your time - better take the time to study the rules of pruning, consult with professionals

Preparing for freezing

Some shrubs and even trees are very sensitive to low temperatures. To protect them, you will need to either cover the root system or figure out how to wrap the stems and branches. For the roots, in most cases, a layer of mulch is sufficient.

To cover the ground part of the plants, geotextiles, wrapping paper or other materials that have good vapor barrier will be required.

Replace, sharpen, disinfect

In the fall, it's time to put your garden equipment in perfect order so that in the spring it is ready for battle on the very first warm laziness.

Sharpen shovels and hoes, replace cuttings

The entire instrument must be disinfected. Just dip shovels, rakes and hoes into the whiteness solution for 24 hours. Then wipe them with a dry cloth and treat them with a little oil to prevent rust build-up over the winter.

Get busy planning

All outdoor work must be completed with planning. While memories are fresh, you need to write down the varieties that gave a good harvest, so as not to forget to buy such seeds in the spring. Record which fertilizers and prophylaxis have worked best. If necessary, re-plan the planting, draw a garden plan for the spring.
