Varieties of apple trees on dwarf rootstock # 3

It should be remembered that the grafting of the tree should rise about 3 centimeters above ground level, so the seedling is placed approximately in the middle of the pit. During the placement of the tree in the planting pit, the root system of the plant is straightened and covered with fertile soil mixed with humus, then a bucket of water is poured. Now it is necessary to pour the remaining earth into the root zone of the plant and stamp it thoroughly, which will prevent the formation of voids between the roots and the soil. For the convenience of watering the crop, a low earth roller is made at a distance of 50 centimeters from the strain, which will limit the movement of water during irrigation. To prevent evaporation of moisture in the root zone, the earth is mulched with a small layer of humus (3-4 centimeters).



Further care of the crop consists in timely watering, and especially during a drought. In this case, 1.5-2 buckets of water are consumed for each plant, while the soil is moistened once every 6-9 days.



Young trees need a sufficient amount of nutrients, so top dressing should be applied every two weeks. Mullein infusion is considered the best organic fertilizer for apple trees. A similar substance is prepared from cattle manure and water mixed in a ratio of 1 to 1. After 10 days of infusion, 1 liter of the substance is diluted in a bucket of water and only after that the plants are fertilized.



Caring for apple trees in spring consists of removing insulation materials and sanitary pruning of trees. During such operations, the branches that are broken and damaged by frost are removed. During the same period, the crown is sprayed with a Bordeaux mixture, which will get rid of diseases and pests. At the next stage of the work, mineral fertilizers are applied, and tree trunks are whitewashed.



In the summer, dwarfs need timely watering. In addition, it is necessary to carry out periodic inspection of trees, fight diseases and pests at the first signs of damage to the tree. Special attention should be paid to non-root top dressing. In hot weather, in the morning, the plant is treated with special preparations containing nitrogen, iron and other trace elements.



In autumn, after harvesting, branches damaged by pests are pruned. At this time, you need to clean up the garden, collect rotten fruits, and remove fallen leaves. Loosening the soil to a shallow depth around the strain will destroy many pests that go into the ground for the winter. To protect plants from rodents, the central trunk is wrapped with roofing material.



Pruning dwarf apple trees

Unlike tall varieties, dwarfs produce much larger yields, but this requires proper care of the plant, including proper pruning of the tree. It is advisable to form crops every year, because the lack of pruning will lead to lower yields and the appearance of small fruits.
