SAD
We whiten the bark of trees
On sunny winter days, the dark bark of trees warms up strongly. To keep the trees dormant and prevent dangerous frost wounds, whitewash tree trunks.
We support the branches
If a lot of snow falls, it is advisable to shake off the excess or prop up branches so that they do not break under its weight.
We are browsing the fruit in the storeroom
Let's check if the stored fruit starts to overheat. So that the sick fruits do not infect he althy ones, remember to remove the spoiled ones or those with the first symptoms of the disease.
VEGETABLES
Horseradish roots to use in spring
The rich, thick horseradish roots (about 30 cm long) can be used as seedlings for spring cultivation after winter storage in a cool room.
Harvesting kale and Brussels sprouts
Brussels sprouts and kale can be harvested after frost - harvested in such weather will be much tastier.
We can still pick mushrooms
It is worth going to the forest to pick mushrooms. This month we collect the fruiting bodies of bolete mushrooms and butterflies, there are large amounts of green goose and arboreal species - oyster mushroom and velveteen moth.
Recent bed tidying
After the vegetables are harvested, we clean the fields. Post-harvest leftovers (without symptoms) are added to the composter.
We plan crops
In the long autumn evenings, we can start planning crops for the next growing season, remembering about the principles of correct change and diversification of the vegetable garden.
