LIMPIAR LA ZONA AFECTADA Y APLICAR PASTA DE CENIZA CON AJO O CANELA

Ash, garlic, and cinnamon paste: homemade remedy for wounds on stems and branches

How does it work?

Cleaning the affected area and applying a paste of ash with garlic or cinnamon is a natural treatment to combat gummosis, a disease that causes the exudation of sap in the form of gum on trunks and branches. Cleaning removes rubber remains and damaged fabric, while the ash acts as a disinfectant and desiccant. Garlic and cinnamon have antifungal and antibacterial properties that help control infections and promote healing.

How is it prepared?

The paste is prepared with natural ingredients and is easy to apply.

Recipe:
- 2 tablespoons of fine wood ash
- 1 clove of crushed garlic or 1 teaspoon of cinnamon powder
- Water (amount necessary to form a thick paste)

Steps:
1. Mix the ash with the crushed garlic or cinnamon in a clean container.
2. Add water little by little until you obtain a thick and homogeneous paste.
3. Use immediately.

Recommendations

- Clean the affected area by removing the rubber and damaged tissue with a clean tool.
- Apply the paste directly to the wound with a spatula or brush.
- Repeat the application every 5 to 7 days until you notice improvement.
- If it rains, reapply once the area is dry.
- Make the applications preferably in the afternoon, in dry weather.
