• competent trimming and garter. In the development process, the plant reserves faded foliage, broken inflorescences and damaged shoots. Long stems are quite easily broken, for which they are neatly tied up. In October, the drooped and yellow folias are cut off by a secateur. Removing the ground part of the flower, you can provoke an "anabiosis" of the bulbs;
• high-quality trashing of tubers.After a few weeks of rest, the bulbs can be transferred to the illuminated place and start small watering.

Classical digging soil formation with a turnover promotes efficient destruction of various parasites and pests;
• mechanical collection medvedok, beetles, slugs. Properly placed traps may facilitate purification infield against insects;
• physics—thermal method. This embodiment comprises a heat treatment of bulbs by lowering them into the water for 5 minutes at a temperature in 50-55ºS. Thus, onion mite and nematode dies. There is an effective mechanism tubers tuberose steaming;
• biological variation. Based on the use of natural enemies. For example, birds readily feed on various insects and larvae. To do this, we need only to draw their attention to the plant;
• mechanism of chemical attack It includes the use of pesticides. For this tuberose tubers treated before planting TMTD 1% solution, 0.2% sodium and fluid euparena fundazol. When the plant overcomes onion mite, rational use of combined formulations is: 0.2 + 0.2% fundazol "BI-58"; TMTD 1% + 6.2% "BI-58"; 0.2-0.3% + malathion. Throughout the growing period, growers produce spray all parts polianthes leaves. The infection can penetrate into the flower vase life when he shoots. In this case, the working tool must be sterilized with alcohol and potassium permanganate.

If on the territory of the infield is not possible to alternate between culture, the soil before planting should be treated with formalin. For this purpose, taking 250 ml of the product and dissolved in 10 L of water. This mixture was used per 1 m2 of the soil at a temperature of 0 degrees.
