Growing fruit trees

Landing


Trees should be planted in the fertile soil . Soil fertility can be improved primarily enriched in organic matter by its abundant fertilizer with manure or compost . Applied manure was spread evenly over the surface of the soil, and then plow, dig or buried in pits under the trees . The latter method is very good, butlaborious. For plowing scatter 5 - 6 kg of manure or compost per 1 m2. in order to seal the well is taken in 3 - 4 times larger amount. manure intended for incorporation into the pits must be well decomposed . Incorporation of it is thorough mixing with the ground, taken out of the pits for planting a tree . It should not be mixed with soilmineral fertilizers, as in this case, there is a risk damaging the roots too much salt concentration . The larger hole, the better . You can dig and fill manure pit diameter of 1 - 1.5 m and a depth of 50 - 80 cm, which will provide very good growth of trees after planting . To tree normally receive sufficient pitapproximately flat largest size of the root system .

When digging pits separately folding the top layer of soil humus and less fertile bottom layer . At the bottom of the pit poured a mound of the humus layer and carefully laid it on the roots of plants a tree . Then pit fall asleep fertile soil, and then the earth from the deeper layers . When the soil is compacted backfill root hand, and in the last stage- Foot . We need to do it firmly, but gently, so as not to break the roots . Especially carefully it is necessary to stamp the ground immediately around the trunk . Then around the planted tree suit well and pour into it at least two buckets of water . Watering will not only give the roots of the water, but above all accelerate the settling of the land .


Especially strong ground settles in deep holes, so they should dig up and covered with soil with manure embedded a few months before planting to settles land is not pulled planted trees too deep . It is also possible to fill the pit manure during landing, but then over them leave a towering mound that as sedimentationland planted with a tree falls to the desired level. in the tree must be ground to the same depth as in the nursery, that is to be ground only to the root collar .


Fruit trees can be planted in the garden in the "artistic mess" in compliance with the relevant distances or on a particular system . The latter method is used most often . Space reserved for the planting of trees, divided into rectangles or squares, establishing future "living space "for each tree . In the place where the tree should be planted, drive a stake .


Before digging pits, number removed, so its position is fixed with two additional poles and landing board with cutouts in the middle and at the ends . The board applied an average cut to a stake and about the end cutouts auxiliary drive in pegs . Then, the main count and board removed, leaving the auxiliary pegs . When the pit is dug, the board placed between the auxiliary pegs as she lay face it, the average cut-out in the bottom of the hole to pierce the main number, about who planted trees .

Most of the species of fruit trees is better to plant in the fall . Newly planted tree protected from freezing device mound of earth or by wrapping the trunk harness straw . The latter protects the tree from damage by rabbits, they should be used, if the site is not fenced grid . In severe winters rabbits frequented even centerpiecessmall towns and suburbs of large cities . This is why it is necessary to garden fencing mesh as straw can protect dwarf trees no more than two years after planting .
