For this one branch is sprayed with a solution and after 2 days they look at the results... If there is no negative reaction, then you can safely use the product.

Spraying the garden plays an important role in the life of each individual plant, affects their development and fertility. If you sprinkle trees with the right formulations on time, you can significantly increase the quality and quantity of the crop.

Let us consider in more detail the procedure for spraying the garden and answer a number of questions: the better to spray trees in early spring, late in the summer, is it worth holding an event in the fall? We will also understand the compositions (fungicides, fertilizers, insecticides).

This article will help everyone who wants to take care of the garden on their own. If you do not have the necessary time, proper experience and a great desire to work on your own, we recommend using the services of professional gardeners. We will take care of your landing quickly and efficiently! :)

Mandatory spraying

First of all, we will tell you when to spray trees. Mandatory procedures spraying occurs in the spring. There are several of them: before the appearance of foliage, before and during flowering, and also after the plants have faded. Each event has its own function.

1. Before the appearance of the first greenery on the branches, the garden is sprayed in order to destroy the pests that have successfully overwintered in the bark and shoots. Spraying also serves as a prophylaxis against diseases: scab, coccomycosis, klyasteriosporia, etc. If you are interested in how to spray trees before bud break, pay attention to copper-based preparations: copper sulfate, Bordeaux liquid or specialized mixtures (sold in gardening stores).
2. The second sanitary measure occurs at the time of the appearance of the first buds. Purpose: to increase immunity and resistance against fungal diseases. There is no definite answer to the question of how to spray trees before flowering. A lot of special preparations or one of the fungicides are suitable: Bordeaux liquid, iron or copper sulfate.
3. Now consider when and how to spray trees in spring when they bloom. It is best to carry out two procedures: the first - after all the buds have blossomed; the second - in two weeks (when 75% of the petals fall off). These are two complementary spraying, carried out with the aim of controlling garden pests (mainly ticks and weevils) and increasing immunity by fungal diseases... In this case, use malofos, DDT powder or anabazine.
4. When the plants have faded, the next event is carried out - spraying to increase resistance to pathogens of putrefactive diseases, as well as to destroy the hatched insect larvae. So, how to spray trees after flowering to solve these problems? Combined mixtures are already used here; you can buy them at specialized points of sale.
5. In summer, plants are sprayed with special compounds to exterminate a certain type of insect or to quickly saturate the garden with the necessary microelements (the so-called foliar feeding).

Our specialists will help to carry out preventive procedures. Experienced gardeners with many years of experience will select an effective remedy and carry out necessary work on the "highest level"! :)

We select the composition

In early spring, it is effective to spray trees with diesel fuel. Spraying is carried out in March. The refined product does an excellent job of killing pests. Diesel fuel covers the plant with a thin oily film, blocking the free access of oxygen to the larvae that overwintered on the plants. Of course, the living creatures are dying.

No against all kinds of fungal diseases better prevention except for sprinkling trees with copper sulfate or Bordeaux liquid. They not only fight against pathogens, but also increase the immunity of the garden as a whole.

Spraying with karbofos has its advantages. The substance perfectly burns out pest larvae, like acid. In addition, the plants are saturated with nitrogen. Therefore, karbofos is also used as a nitrogen-containing fertilizer. In view of these features, it is necessary to accurately determine when it is worth sprinkling trees with urea, and at what time of the year - treatment of plants will entail Negative consequences... Remember - the treatment of the garden with nitrogen-containing compounds is not permissible in a state of slumber (March) or during the period of preparing the plantings for sleep (second half of autumn). In both cases, the use of urea will negatively affect the development of the garden.

By the way, copper sulfate is sometimes replaced with iron sulfate. It has a similar effect, but at the same time it carries a property useful for some plants: it saturates them with an important trace element - iron. This trace element is involved in many oxidative processes in apple trees, peach plants, and cherries. Therefore, before sprinkling peach or apple trees with copper sulfate, carefully examine the plant for iron deficiency.

There are also folk recipes spray agents that can replace a fungicide in the fight against certain types of pests or diseases. For example, if you're wondering how to spray aphids on trees, pungent-smelling liquids are good. Infusions of garlic or tobacco show themselves excellently. Aphids do not tolerate harsh odors.

Our professional gardeners will help you to choose the active composition for your garden and to carry out preventive measures. We will take care of your landing quickly, efficiently and inexpensively! :)

Technological process

Now we will tell you how to spray trees correctly, consider the technology and provide a list of tools. In order to carry out the procedure, you will need:

• special pump and spray liquid;
• protective equipment (rubber gloves, respirator, glasses).

First of all, decide when is the best time to spray the trees. The event should be held in dry weather, preferably early in the morning or after sunset. Thus, the applied liquid will be absorbed as much as possible, will not be washed off by rain and will not evaporate in the sun. So, the day and time have been chosen, it's time to start:

1. Spray the active ingredient over the entire surface of the wood. Make sure that the composition lays down evenly with fine dew. To do this, keep the tip of the sprayer at a distance of 60-70 cm from the surface to be coated.
2. Shake the liquid in the pump reservoir periodically. This is done so that the solution does not stratify.
3. At the end of the procedure, wash all pump components. Then wash your hands and face with plain soap and rinse your mouth.

FAQ

After talking with novice gardeners and scrolling through many forums, we have identified a number of issues that most often torment beginners. We will try to give intelligible answers to each of them.

• Question # 1: When should the trees be sprayed - in spring, autumn or summer?

Each spraying performs its function depending on the composition of the substance that is used in the procedure. For example, copper-based formulations are excellent at fighting fungal diseases, and urea is excellent at burning pests. Universal remedy from all the problems simply do not exist, so the event is held several times a year: at least three times in the spring and 2-3 times in summer time... The spring event serves as prevention, and the summer event - to destroy pests that have captured a tree or saturate the garden with the necessary elements (nitrogen, iron, etc., depending on the scarcity) - this is the so-called foliar feeding.

• Question number 2: how to spray trees in March and why urea is not used during this period?

In early spring, spraying is carried out in order to destroy insects that have overwintered in the "bowels" of the tree. For these purposes, preparations based on copper or diesel fuel are often used. They do an excellent job with this task. Karbofos has unique property- it saturates the garden with nitrogen. What does it mean? Urea activates vegetative processes. Do not wake up the garden, it will wake up when the earth and air are warm enough. Early awakening will not do anything good.

• Question number 3: when and with what to spray trees from leaf rollers?

This is one of the most "harmful" types of insects. They damage fruit-bearing plants from mid-spring to almost the end of autumn. It is necessary to fight them even before bud break. Effective remedies for spraying: diesel fuel, machine oil emulsion. In the middle of spring, urea is used. In summer, caterpillars can be etched with tobacco infusion or karbofos. If pests are few, they are often collected and destroyed by hand - but this is an ineffective way of dealing with it.

• Question number 4; can trees be sprayed during flowering?

Yes! not only possible, but also necessary! During this period, many pests hatch, ticks and weevils crawl out. The latter damage the buds of the ovary, so their destruction is the primary task if you want to get a large and high-quality harvest.

Let us remind you that professional gardeners can hold important events for the life of your garden instead of you. We will take care of your site as efficiently and carefully as possible! :)

When and how to spray trees video

Since ancient times, people have known about the detrimental effect of oil products on all living things and have learned to use it for their own purposes. So, in horticulture, for the processing of apple trees, pears, plums and other fruit trees, diesel fuel has been actively used as a means for many decades. effective protection from diseases and insects.

Of course, the use of a pure petroleum product will lead to plant burns or even their death. The choice of this oil product for the first March treatment of fruit plantations will effectively destroy viruses, fungi and insect larvae that hibernated on branches and in cracks in the bark. Spraying trees with diesel fuel helps to achieve the complete destruction of the larvae due to the fact that the solution sprayed over the surface of the bark forms a uniform oily film on the surface of the branches and the pillar, which does not allow the larvae to breathe, as a result of which they have as soon as possible after processing, suffocation occurs.

Spraying fruit trees with diesel fuel at the end of April - May allows you to fight against adult insects, thanks to the same enveloping properties of the oil product, which, once on the leaves and forming a thin film on them, makes them unsuitable for laying eggs of butterflies and aphids. Treated leaves are unsuitable for insect consumption and cannot provide food for their offspring.

Another dangerous pest, the fight against which with most other means is ineffective, is the bark beetle, which settling in the bark of plums, pears and apple trees, is protected from chemical and biological spraying agents. After timely treatment with diesel fuel, everything happens a little differently. Let this remedy not destroy the hidden larvae, but after pupation of the bark beetle in May and the birth of new butterflies, the oily film will not allow adults to lay off new offspring in the bark, thereby saving your fruit trees from this pest.

Spraying with diesel fuel has shown itself very well in the aspect of saving decaying parts of trees, if the cause of the formation of rot is sharp corner in which water accumulated.

Since this oil product is not a fungicide, it can be sprayed not only in early spring and late autumn, but throughout the entire flowering period of the fruit tree. Usually, it is bred according to one of the following recipes:

• To 10 parts of water add 1 part of ferrous sulfate, then 10 parts of 10% milk of lime, and only then 20 parts of diesel fuel. The resulting mixture will be 50% concentrated and is recommended for use before bud formation and after foliage has fallen.
• 5 parts of clay and 5 parts of water are mixed with 20 parts of fuel. The resulting solution has the same concentration as the previous one, but does not contain a fungicide and can be used during the period of fruit emergence.
• Another option for obtaining a 50% solution for spraying is to mix 9 parts of water with 1 part of laundry soap and 10 parts of diesel fuel.

The main thing to consider when creating a solution from an oil product is its concentration, exceeding which can kill your trees, so it is better not to stir here than to stir.

“I heard from fellow gardeners that they are treating shrubs with solar oil (diesel fuel) and chlorine. Please tell me how (in what proportion) to do the treatment with these drugs.

Respectfully yours - I.NSolischuk ".

Bleach is a disinfectant and is not used in horticulture. And ordinary lime is part of the Bordeaux mixture used to protect the garden from pests and diseases, - explained the agronomist and experienced gardener Gennady BREUS... - To prepare Bordeaux mixture, you need to take quicklime, dissolve in water and add copper sulfate to the resulting solution.

For spring processing of garden plantings, it is necessary to prepare Bordeaux liquid at the rate of 300 g of lime and copper sulfate for 10 liters of water. During the summer treatment of trees, the dosage active substance(lime and copper sulfate) can be reduced to 100 g. When sprinkled, Bordeaux mixture adheres well to plantings and is poorly washed off by rains.

Diesel fuel (waste solar oil) in its pure form is not used in horticulture, but is included in the preparation No. 30. This preparation, in addition to solar oil, consists of a solution of white clay and an adhesive (any sticky substance). To prepare preparation No. 30, dissolve 500-600 g of white clay in water, move well and filter. Then add 300 g of waste oil products (diesel fuel) to the resulting solution, mix everything well and use it to spray trees against pests. By the way, now you can process the plantings with it.

The principle of action of the drug No. 30 includes two points. Firstly, when spraying trees, it destroys openly overwintered pests due to the fact that an oily film clogs them Airways, resulting in suffocation.

Secondly, preparation No. 30 scares away pest butterflies, which choose only clean leaves, branches. And the oily liquid deprives their offspring of a food source.

It is very important to treat trunks, skeletal branches with porous bark with diesel fuel and clay. At the end of May, bark beetles usually pupate under the bark, butterflies emerge from the pupa, which again lay bark beetle eggs. The drug number 30 will prevent their reproduction.

Why does the nut not bear fruit?

“I have been growing a nut (pistachios) at my dacha for five years. The tree is large, healthy, but does not bear fruit. What needs to be done for the nut to bear fruit?

E. Solovyova ".

Pistachios are a self-fertile variety of nuts; a pollinator nut must necessarily grow next to this tree. And if it is not, then the tree will not bear fruit, - said the amateur gardener Georgy ANDREEV... - Therefore, you need to plant a different variety - a pollinator, while remembering that not every nut can be a pollinator.

The fact that this nut (pistachios) is southerner also plays a role; in our region it is not zoned and cultivated. By virtue of cold winter the tree may freeze and not bear fruit.

How to plan a site

“I have a plot of five acres. Tell me how best to plan it: at what distance from the border should a tree, a bush, a building be located; where the toilet should be located; Is it possible to store boards, old bedside tables or other materials near the fence along the boundary?

AND.TOwandering. "

Usually, all these issues are regulated by the charter of a gardening partnership, which is adopted by the general meeting of gardeners of this partnership, the Land Use Rules (for a private courtyard). In accordance with the charter, the house should be located on the side of the street, three meters from the border of the neighbors. Large trees (walnut, apricot, cherry) are planted five meters from the neighboring border, and so that the shadow of the tree does not cover the neighboring area. Medium-sized (apple, pear) are usually placed at a distance of three meters, and low-growing (plum) - two meters from the border, shrubs - a meter from the neighboring fence.

Under the fence, you can store boards, etc., but so that the height of the masonry does not exceed one and a half meters and does not obscure the neighboring area.

All fruit trees in the fall must be prepared for winter. We need to protect them from diseases and pests.

In the fall, it is advised to spray the trees to prepare them for winter. This is done in late October or early November, when all the leaves have already fallen off.

Pruning branches and collecting leaves

Cleaning trees from old bark, growths, lichens

Cleaning is done due to the fact that the old dead bark begins to rot, and pests appear on the lichens.

If you see cracks in the bark, then cover them with your own cooked var. To prepare the composition, mix mullein, clay, copper sulfate, straw dust. Density garden var should be the consistency of sour cream.

Strapping

So that hares and other rodents do not damage apple and pear trees in winter, they tie the skeletal branches and stems with burlap or matting. This material is tied with young hazel branches or stockings. To protect young seedlings from frost, they are wrapped with agrofibre or cloth.

Whitewash

Most often, the treatment of trees is done with a solution of slaked lime. 2 kg of slaked or 1.3 kg of quicklime and 300 g of copper sulfate are poured into a bucket of water. If you don't have lime, use clay and slurry. A solution is made, it is coated with tree trunks and branches. Because of the snow in winter, the composition is washed off, therefore, at the beginning of spring, the trunk is whitewashed again.

You can also whiten it with emulsion paint, it contains antibacterial components, they protect fruit trees from any insect pests. But it is not advised to whitewash young trees with emulsion paint.

It is required to dig up the ground several times. When digging the soil in September, you should get rid of weeds and plant debris, in which pests can hide in winter.

Spraying

• insects sucking juices: these are aphids, honeydew, leaf flies and mites;
• pests that gnaw leaves are she-bears, white bears, and also cocoa worms, volnyanka.
• fungal diseases, it is mainly scab and late blight;
• pests that damage the kidneys: weevils and tube worms.

Spraying solutions

inkstone

• false powdery mildew;
• anthracnose;
• coccomycosis;
• clusterosoporia;
• with gray rot;
• slows down the development of powdery mildew.

Copper sulfate

Copper sulfate fights against moniliosis, coccomycosis, clotterosporosis and curl on plums. It protects apples and pears from scab, monioiosis, phyllostictosis.

For one young tree up to 6 years old use 2 liters of solution. If the plant is older, then use up to 10 liters.
Copper and iron sulfate are sprayed into the garden in the early morning or late evening. The air temperature should be + 5-30 degrees.
To get the maximum effect from copper or iron sulfate, laundry soap is added to the solution.

Urea

Apply urea, when all the leaves fall off, the solution is made from 0.5-0.7 liters and a bucket of water. They spray it on trunks, branches and soil.

Diesel fuel

Usually, diesel fuel is bred as follows:

• A bucket of water (10 liters) is poured into the barrel, after 1 liter of ferrous sulfate, then 10 liters of 10% milk of lime, and only at the end of 20 liters of diesel fuel. The resulting solution has a concentration of 50%, it is advised to use it after the leaves have completely fallen off.
• You can mix 9 liters of water with 1 liter of a solution of laundry soap and 10 liters of diesel fuel.
• The main thing to remember is that exceeding the concentration of diesel fuel can destroy trees, so it is better to add less diesel than to overdo it.
