Full-fledged growth and development of plants requires introduction of mineral and organic fertilizers. But it is insufficiently simple to fill the necessary quantity of nutritious granules in hole in the earth and to wait for result. Each type of fertilizers demands entering into certain time. Why it is impossible to bring nitrogen in the fall? Really it can affect the state of health of trees and bushes so strongly?
Nitrogen fertilizers bring to help plants to increase quicker green material, to construct necessary proteinaceous connections and to stock up with all necessary for full development during the whole summer. Nitrogen is the valuable element which is part of proteins for this reason it is so important during active growth, that is in the spring.
There is logical question: why it is impossible to introduce nitrogen fertilizers in the fall? If there is no active growth during this period, the need for them does not arise and plants can use the nitrogen reserve brought in advance, then, when it is necessary for it. Not everything is so simple the fact is that the compounds of nitrogen which are in the soil are acquired by roots irrespective of, the plant needs them now or not. If you bring nitrogen in the fall, fruit-trees and bushes instead of preparing for wintering, will begin to increase actively vegetable weight and at the right time will not be is at rest. Autumn nitric fertilizing not only does not bring benefit, but can do considerable harm. Vegetiruyushchy plants in the period of the first frosts are more subject to frostbites. They are worse made ready for the winter and are ill more.
And here in the spring the lack of nitrogen can lead to very sad consequences. During this period of plant are busy with active building of green material, forming of leaves, escapes and gain of root system. The power supply is better at this time, the plant during the entire period of vegetation will be stronger. If there is not enough nitrogen, leaves are formed in smaller quantity and cannot execute function of photosynthesis in the necessary volume. At nitric starvation the mass yellowing of foliage and even premature leaf fall is observed. From such tree or bush it is already not necessary to speak about harvest. You should not neglect rules of application of fertilizers. If you do not find time for early-spring fertilizing nitrogen, it is possible to improve situation due to periodic extra root fertilizing during the spring period prior to infructescence. Remember that the healthy mineral nutrition – guarantee of harmonious growth and development of plants in your garden, and consequently, and receiving big crop.
