Polycarbonate is a material with very good performance. He came to summer residents more than to their liking, and especially as a covering material for greenhouses. Designs made with its help can withstand enormous loads, are unusually durable and are used everywhere nowadays. In this regard, quite a logical question about how to handle a polycarbonate greenhouse in the fall arises from many.
Soap disinfection
Polycarbonate greenhouses , unlike polyethylene covered greenhouses, practically do not require maintenance. They do not need to be disassembled for the winter. This material will withstand strong winds and high snow cover. However, of course, preventive measures that will reduce the risk of diseases of various cultures should be carried out. So, how to handle a polycarbonate greenhouse in the fall?
No special chemicals are needed. It will be enough ordinary household soap. It must be planed in a bucket of water so that a not too saturated solution is obtained. With this mixture, the walls of the structure are rubbed inside and out. To do this, use only a soft rag. Hard marks may scratch. If somewhere on the walls there are pieces of dried up dirt, you need to wet them with soapy water and, after waiting a while, wipe them with a rag. A knife or other sharp objects cannot be used categorically.
This is not the only way to carry out prevention. Next, consider how to handle a polycarbonate greenhouse in the fall yet.
Sulfur Check Disinfection
Although the manufacturer does not recommend using this method, many summer residents successfully practice it. However, in greenhouses with a poorly stained metal case, such a procedure is still not worthwhile. The method itself is extremely simple. Inside the greenhouse, a metal stand is installed. They put a saber on it, set fire to and close all doors and windows. It will smolder for about an hour. After this, wait a bit and ventilate the room.
Tillage in a greenhouse in autumn
Of course, as in any other, in the polycarbonate structure, attention must also be paid to the state of the soil. Its upper layer is best replaced with a new one.
It is also worth shedding the soil with a strong solution of potassium permanganate or
copper sulfate. Since polycarbonate greenhouses are very lightweight, you can generally not "bother", but simply call friends and rearrange it to a new place. Four men will be enough for this operation.
In any case, autumn tillage in the greenhouse should end with thorough cultivation. In this case, all plant residues must be removed and burned. After all these operations are completed, the structure is closed. In winter, snow can be thrown onto the ground.
Thus, the answer to the question: "How to handle a polycarbonate greenhouse in the fall?" - completely uncomplicated. Its price is 20 rubles. That is how much a piece of laundry soap costs. The most important thing is to ensure that the soil is decontaminated as much as possible inside the structure.
