Getting the autumn harvest

A number of growing plants form a wall, which requires the construction of a trellis and garters. All bushes are led into one stem, the stepsons are removed using small pruners or scissors, previously disinfected in alcohol or by calcination over fire.
Plants need feeding. The best results are obtained with organic fertilizers, for example, infusions of mullein or bird droppings aged for 7 days, diluted 20 times. Such feeding must be done every 2 weeks. As the plants grow, the lower leaves are cut off, exposing the fruit to air and sunlight. They will be sweeter and brighter in color.
