Planting a pear in the fall occurs in previously prepared pit

Many people like it when fruit grows in their gardens, like a pear, planting and care, pruning which, although it requires some work, but it pays off with interest when fragrant ripe fruits appear on the table. Of course, this tree is much less common than the apple tree, but it is also quite popular.

The time of planting a pear depends on the region. In the middle part of our country the seedlings are placed in the ground most often in the spring. This happens in late April or early May, even before the appearance of leaves. And in the southern regions it is correct to plant a pear in the autumn. This is due to the fact that under these conditions, new roots are better formed because of the large accumulation of moisture in the soil. However, in the autumn it is more difficult to keep young trees from attacking rodents, therefore, protection from these pests is carried out in parallel.

Proper planting of the pear is the key to a good harvest. Before placing the seedlings in the ground, it must be carefully inspected by removing the damaged branches. At the same time, the root system can not be touched, since it contains many microelements and nutrients, so necessary for the tree to grow.

Planting the pear in autumn is carried out in pre-prepared pits with a depth of sixty and a diameter of about one hundred centimeters, filled with fertile soil. On already cultivated soil or in advance prepared hills, valleys, you can do without them.

The walls of the landing holes must have a steep slope. With conical form, the soil unevenly settles, causing deepening of the root necks.

In this case, walls are not recommended to be smoothed with a shovel, as this makes air exchange difficult.

For the filling of pits, as a rule, a mixture of fertile soil, pereprevshego manure or compost and peat. You can add mineral fertilizers, depending on the type of soil. In doing so, you need to be careful that excessive diligence does not lead to burns on the root system.

Gradual raising of the upper land layer, obtained by mulching, leads to the penetration of the seedling. Therefore, the planting of the pear in autumn is carried out in such a way that its root neck under a slight slope rises from the general soil level.

Seedling with a one-sided or twisted crown is located in a bare part in the direction of the most illuminated southern side. A tree with branches will stretch towards the sun.

Planting a pear in autumn or spring is done in the earthen cone in such a way that the root of the roots rests on its apex. This minimizes the number of air voids. Fill the seedling with soil, it should be shaken slightly and pulled upward, so that the soil is evenly distributed among the roots.

After filling the pit, it is necessary to fill it with water. The resulting voids fall asleep and trample down the radius from the trunk.

For successful survival, it is necessary to fix the position of the roots so that the seedling does not swing from the wind. Therefore, you need to firmly attach it to a deep cola. To accidentally not damage the trunk, the garter is made as a figure-eight.
