in the area care of trees needed to gather a good harvest in the next season. Upgrading of the principles of garden fruit trees is about the same. Before the spring warmth, trunks necessarily coated with a thin layer of lime. This is done in order to prevent the fall of the tree of various insects, and little to energize the base.
During the dry summer, trees abundantly wateredTo prevent their destruction. After watering, over the wet soil from the root base poured dry peat, humus, or scatter a thin layer of grass. This is done in order to slow down the evaporation of moisture.
During the spring planting, you must carefully follow the process in the orchard: it so happens that the tree was not in a hurry to bloom. In any allusion to the wilting, it is recommended to dig a neat plant to put its roots into a large pot with water. Instead, the tank is often used method for lining moist soil on the roots. After a while, the tree must come to life and begin to turn green. Only then can you put the fruit trees in the ground.
Often, there are moments in which the soil around the base is covered with a whitish bloom and crust. Do not forget about the loosening, especially in the growing season. It is important to know what the maximum depth loosening must not exceed 15 centimeters. In this process, use the rule - a shovel, this tool is less traumatic for the roots. August and September - the timeout period, it is in these moments there is fruiting. The ideal time for loosening and digging can be called a spring and summer months, May and June.
Fertilizing fruit trees
The main fertilizer for successful fertilization is considered organic - compost, manure, ash. Especially often use tight compost, which is well-caked, and began to turn into humus. Prepare the material costs in advance. That is, the period is fertilizer in the spring, and the compost should start to cook in the fall. Spread layers of compost round, the square that matches the diameter of the tree crown.
If the soil without clay, loose and well-dug, the humus and compost to the soil is recommended that no more than once every three years. Dry bird droppings completely replace the annual feeding the root system of the fruit tree. This type of fertilizer can be made in the autumn, before winter hibernation, or closer to the spring floods.
It is mandatory to take into account the age of the tree. If the tree young (2-3 years), then it needs 10 to 12 kilograms of fertilizer throughout the year. In five, seven years the tree will be considered as quality fertilizer, with the introduction of 20 to 25 kg of fertilizer into the soil. Older trees are very whimsical in the filling of fertilizer and may require fertilization 170 kg of fertilizer.
