Overpowered the aphid on Plum? My proven way to get rid of it, thanks to which I get Large juicy fruits

Perhaps there is no person who does not like stone fruits such as plums. There is a whole garden on my site, but growing a good harvest is problematic, since these trees are literally precipitated by parasites, including aphids. I have found a simple, effective and budgetary way to control these insects.

Autumn processing

Everyone knows that it is much easier to prevent a disaster than to deal with it later. That is why, with the onset of autumn, I carry out several simple actions.

Preventive measures are as follows:

1. I cut off all the broken branches from the tree, remove the exfoliated bark. At the end, I whitewash the trunk, or rather its lower part.

2. I carefully mulch the soil. I add potassium sulfate to the soil, it reduces the fertility rate of the insect.

3. I remove weeds, fallen leaves. I burn them right away so that the existing larvae do not wake up in the spring.

4. I plant seeds of plants, I choose calendula, as it attracts a ladybug, which eats aphids with pleasure. I also grow odorous herbs that repel pests, these are tobacco, celandine and marigolds. I placed flower beds next to the plantings.

Actually, that's all. In this form, my plantings remain for the winter. With the onset of spring, but even before flowering begins, I spray the tree with a homemade solution, which almost 100% gets rid of aphids.

Preparation of funds

To prepare my product, there is no need to purchase any expensive drugs. All components can be found in their own garden, which is especially important for retirees.

To make a solution, you must prepare the following natural ingredients:

Foliage or other waste of tobacco, which I pre-grind to a state of powder - 2 handfuls;

Wood ash - 1 glass;

Onion husks - 1 glass;

Garlic - 0.5 kg;

· Water - 10 liters.

I pour all the components into a metal barrel, fill everything with settled water and mix thoroughly. I leave the solution to infuse, usually for 3-4 days.

After the received product I process the garden plantings, I do it twice with a break of two weeks.

After such spraying, I no longer fear for my trees and the future harvest, the fruits always delight with their taste, the plum grows large and juicy, to the envy of all neighbors. I also spray other fruit trees with the same product.
