Most often there is no berry on drainings because of illiterate care for fruit trees. That the harvest pleased from year to year, it is necessary to follow certain rules on the maintenance of these fruit-trees.
The beginning gardeners quite often ask question about terms emergence of fruits on drainings. In most cases trees begin to fructify 4-5 years later after landing if by this time fruits have not appeared, then it is necessary to investigate care for culture and to correct some of its aspects. So, the lack of fruits speaks about:
- abnormalities of the picked-up soil type when landing young saplings;
- illiteracy of landing of saplings (violation of the agrotechnical moments);
- diseases of cultures, attacks by wreckers;
- lack of due watering and application of fertilizers.
Have dealt with the main reasons, now it should be taken into account these points in more detail and to find out what to do otherwise.
Plum perfectly grows on heavy soils which detain moisture - clay and sredneglinyasty. The only thing that should be considered when landing - acidity of soil, plum prefers alkalescent and alkaline soils. Less sour soil can be made by entering of mix into it of lime, chalk and ashes, having taken these components in equal proportions.
Plum rather badly transfers profound landing, the procedure which in certain cases is illiterately carried out can affect further fertility of culture. It is worth remembering that the root neck when landing has to be not lower than 5-10 cm from the surface of soil, it is very important.
Now as for watering and application of fertilizers. Some gardeners on ignorance try to fertilize and water as much as possible drainings, thinking that thereby they help culture to accustom quicker on the new place, to strengthen immunity, to gain strength for fructification, however in fact these actions only harm saplings. 3 times during season - in the spring, right after snow thawing need fertilizing of draining not more often, during blossoming and after harvesting. Optimum frequency of watering - 2-3 times a week provided that there is hot and dry weather.
Having merged defeat wreckers and diseases can not just deprive of harvest, but also ruin trees. Culture most often is exposed from diseases - kokkomikozy, gomozy and fruit decay, from wreckers - caterpillars, plum fir seed moth and plum plant louse therefore first of all in the absence of fruits it is necessary to exclude infection of trees with diseases and the attack by wreckers. The fact is that if during the previous season the saplings hurt, then in come you should not wait for fruits.
