Boarding time

In the south and central Russia, it is recommended to plant pears in the fall.In the north, planting work is recommended to be carried out in the spring. This will help prevent the death of the young plant.

Soil preparation

The pear develops well in nutritious soil. Poor sandy soil should be enriched with organic humus. To do this, composted manure is usually added.

Selection of seedlings

High-quality seedlings are sold in plastic containers. In this case, the plant is transferred to the soil with a lump of soil. This helps avoid damage to the roots. Seedlings without leaves with an open root system also take root well.

Nuances of the landing process

To plant a plant, it is recommended to do the following:

1. Prepare the soil. It needs to be well cleared of weeds.
2. Make a recess. Its diameter should be 60 centimeters, depth - 30. It is recommended to place a drainage layer at the bottom.
3. Pour a mixture of fertile soil, compost, potassium fertilizer and superphosphate.
4. Plant the crop by transferring the earthen clod.
5. Fill in the hole for planting. To do this, it is worth using fertile soil, which needs to be compacted well.
6. Water the plant. This will require 20-25 liters of water.

Pear care

In order for the crop to develop normally and bear fruit abundantly, it is recommended to provide it with high-quality care.

Watering

For 10 liters of water you should take 50 grams of superphosphate.The second time, fertilizers are applied at the beginning of the appearance of the first fruits. In this case, it is worth using ammonium nitrate.

To prepare the solution you will need 20 grams of the substance and 10 liters of water. In the fall, after harvesting, it is worth covering the tree trunk circle with humus.

Trimmings
