Folk signs of November
In Rus' they used to say: “October is cold, father, but November has turned it too cold.” They joked: “November is September’s grandson, October’s son, winter’s dear father.” It was not for nothing that people called it “Twilight of the Year”: this month, watching short days and the rapid onset of darkness in the evening, they said: “Dawn meets dusk.”

It would seem that in November gardeners and summer residents can rightfully take a break from the busy season, but there is work that is caused by the arrival of cold weather. In the garden in the first ten days, when cold weather sets in, it is necessary to insulate piles, cellars, and storage areas. Remove rotten roots and discard. Those root crops that were lying next to the sick people need to be used urgently, and the area should be covered with sand.

Often, even in November, the leaves do not fall from the trees. This is bad, because the first snow will break the branches, which means you will have to constantly shake the snow off the trees, especially since the first snow usually falls wet and, therefore, heavy. Broken branches should be cut off immediately and the cut area should be covered with brilliant green.

Many owners of greenhouses (especially those made of polycarbonate) may encounter problems with polycarbonate pressing through and generally breaking the structure; even durable greenhouses could not withstand such amounts of snow. How to avoid greenhouse breakdowns in winter?

In the pre-winter period and the beginning of cold weather, you should hurry up and cover young garden plants, shrubs, and vines for the winter. Heat-loving plants are bent to the ground, pinned, and branches of fragile plants are tied to avoid damage from strong winds, cover them. You must save all the trees and flowering shrubs. To act confidently and organized, you need to have a work plan for preparing all the elements of the landscape around the house.

According to the 2019 calendar, spring has arrived. It opens in March - the “thrower” or “rooker”. Of course, the cold has become less intense, the sun is diligently warming the earth, and the snow is melting. March 22 is the day of the vernal equinox, day and night are the same in longitude.

Gardening work is becoming more active: garbage is removed from the beds, the site is prepared for the upcoming season. It is important to comply with the terms of the Sowing and Planting calendars, then the busy season will not take you by surprise.

March is the time for inspecting trees and bushes, pruning after frost, treating cracks and breaks with garden varnish, and treating them against pests.
