Lunar landing calendar for September. Safe protection of plants from diseases and pests in July and August

Tomatoes come from Peru, where the climate is very hot and dry. How to provide native conditions for tomatoes in our climate? They, for example, grow in my open ground, and the summer is cool, and there are very frequent rains. At the same time, I want the bush to bear fruit until autumn, and give fruits, as they write on a bag of seeds - 10 kg per bush. In order to provide this southerner with comfortable conditions and, accordingly, a large harvest for himself, you need to be able to properly form a bush.

Why not let nature do almost all the work for us - propagate our favorite plants with layering?

My strawberry beds have been around for ten years. I, of course, update the bushes. Earlier, when May and June were dry, I took two buckets of delicious berries and another half a bucket of berries covered with gray mold from my “plantation”.

I launched an attack on this bastard. So, step by step - why my strawberries never get gray rot.

In the middle of summer, almost all annual flowers traditionally bloom, including those sown in open ground.

It is necessary to harvest this year's crop and prepare for the next year, to carry out a set of activities in the fruit and ornamental gardens as well as in the garden.

orchard

The main tasks in September are harvesting and preparing the garden for winter. Autumn varieties of apples, autumn and winter pears must be carefully removed before frost. Remove and store in a cool place, wrapping each apple in paper (newspaper). They will stay for a while. We leave only winter apples on the trees

Be sure to remove and dispose of the hunting belts, they have already worked out.

In September, the last time we feed with phosphorus-potassium fertilizer. Foliar top dressing is carried out with a solution (1 tablespoon per bucket of water)

Spraying with a solution of potassium monophosphate

Root top dressing can be carried out with any autumn fertilizer with a minimum amount of nitrogen, or without it, for example, "Kalimagnesia". Before using dry fertilizers, the soil must be shed.

Trees are best fed along the perimeter of the crown. In young trees, small suction roots are shallow compared to adults, so we just close the fertilizer deeper.

To bring fertilizers to mature trees, pits about 50 cm deep are drilled around the perimeter of the crown, with a distance between the pits of about half a meter. If the soil is moist and soft enough not to drill holes, you can make holes in the ground with a small pointed crowbar and pour the fertilizer solution into them.

Crowbar makes several holes around the perimeter of the crown
Fertilizer solution is poured into the holes

September is a good time for planting fruit crops. We plant berry bushes and pome trees (apple and pear). Seedlings purchased with an open root system must be without foliage. When buying, special attention should be paid to the root system. It should be branched and not dried. Even if planting is carried out immediately after acquisition, it is useful to dip the roots in a clay mash with Kornevin or Heteroauxin. This procedure will protect the roots from drying out after planting.

Stone crops are more reliable to plant in the spring.

decorative garden

Flowering hydrangea paniculata

September is a favorable time for division and transplantation , , landing And , shrubs and trees. Before the onset of cold weather, everything will have time to take root well.

Over the summer, we always see the errors made in the preparation of compositions. In September, transplanting even adult plants within the garden is successful. Wet cool weather, the use of root formation stimulants, such as Zircon, Kornevin, Heteroauxin, will help plants take root in a new place.

In September, almost all bulbs are planted, except for hyacinths and late-blooming OT hybrids of lilies. Bulb planting depth - three times the height of the bulb. All additives to the soil - humus, peat, bone meal, mineral fertilizers - are laid below the bulbs to avoid decay. The bulbs themselves are laid on a sand cushion and covered with sand. From above, everything is covered with excavated soil without fertilizers.

For seed propagation of plants, we collect our seeds. Especially those that require phased stratification, such as species peonies, trilliums, podophylls and others.

Ripe black peony seeds

The collected seeds can be immediately sown in pots with a permeable mixture of peat and sand. We bury the pots in the soil for the winter, not forgetting to sign.

At the end of the month, gladioli and dahlias should be dug up so that they do not fall under frost.

We protect decorative ponds from falling foliage with a fine mesh. Before installing the grid, we cut off all aquatic plants. If possible, we clean the bottom of the pond from all bottom sediments. Stretching the net, be sure to leave passages for frogs and toads.

lawn care

After mowing the lawn, combing out the accumulated felt with an aerator, a scarifier, a rake. Then we fertilize the lawn with autumn fertilizer for lawns with a minimum nitrogen content, for example, TerraSol Lawn Autumn, Fertika Lawn Autumn. If moss appears on the lawn, then before the snow falls, it will be necessary to add dolomite flour to deoxidize the soil. Prepare dolomite at the rate of 3-5 tbsp. spoons per 1 sq.m. lawn.

Coniferous, especially dwarf varieties with a dense crown, must be combed out and freed from dead needles, since coniferous litter accumulates inside the crown and during periods of winter thaws can become a source of fungal diseases

In dwarf conifers, it is necessary to clean out the old needles

After cleaning the plant, we do preventive treatment with copper-containing preparations, such as Ordan, Oxyhom, Abiga-Peak, etc.

We carefully examine the Weymouth pine and its varieties prone to blister rust. A change in the color of the needles and a thickening of part of the branch indicate the beginning of the lesion.

Beginning of Weymouth Pine blister rust

We immediately remove such a branch and carry out the treatment with the copper-containing preparations listed above.

Garden

We harvest the entire crop of root crops, potatoes, carrots, beets. We cut the tops of beets and carrots, dry the crop for several hours in the open air

Drying the dug out beets

Winter radish, leek, late varieties of cabbage can be left until October.

We add compost, humus, weathered bottom peat to all vacated ridges. High-moor sphagnum peat improves the structure of clay soils very well. It is acidic, so we add deoxidizers together with peat. All organic additives must be mixed with the soil.

Digging or loosening enough with a flat cutter depends on the mechanical composition of the soil. Heavy clays will not give up just like that, the surface application of organics will not improve the structure of such soil, so it makes sense to dig up the clay, embedding organics by 20-30 cm and only with a pitchfork, not a shovel. We sow green manure on the prepared soil. They rise quickly.

We cut off the green mass of green manure with a sharp flat cutter or oblique, leave the roots in the ground. The "tops" will serve as a good winter mulch for the soil, and the "roots" will overheat, improving its structure.

Siderat - white mustard

On uncultivated soils, a “portable composter-ridge” helps out. The box is put in place in the fall, filled with plant debris, chopped branches, sawdust, manure, mowed grass. It is advisable to mix everything well. If the box is filled gradually, then it is necessary to pour the layers with garden soil

Portable composter

For the winter, the box must be covered so that there is no excessive moisture. In the spring, we pour a little ready-made soil into a portable composter-ridge and plant cucumbers, pumpkins, and zucchini. In autumn, the box is moved to a new location. The compost created in this way is used for its intended purpose, and soil suitable for planting remains in place of the box.

At the end of the month we plant winter garlic. Truth in last years autumn has become long and warm, so planting can be postponed to early October.
