How to Avoid Spreading Infections Between Your Plants While Pruning
Have you ever wondered how you can avoid spreading nasty infections from one of your plants to another while you are pruning them?
Well, wonder no longer!
Here’s how.
Simply wipe your shears off with a household disinfecting wipe. Alternatively, you can use a solution of 50% isopropyl alcohol and 50% water. Dip your tools in the water solution and allow them to air dry, or wipe them thoroughly.
That’s it! Simple, yet effective.
Alternatively you can use a disinfecting wipe to save time, but the reusable solution is more environmentally friendly because there is nothing to throw away.
