Apple Tree Care After Harvest
The apple tree is one of the most common plants on our plots. It always
needs proper and appropriate care. For apple trees to reward you with a
good harvest, you need to take care of the plant even after picking the
fruit. After fruiting, the tree is depleted and needs additional support.
First of all, let us talk about watering! Apple trees need to be watered
regularly, especially during hot periods. It is important to keep the
soil moist.
In August, you can carry out summer pruning by removing excess shoots and
branches to ensure good air circulation and light access to the fruit.
If the apples have grown large and heavy, support them to prevent branch
breakage. Branch supports are important in August, when fruit is already
quite large and apple trees — especially young ones — struggle
to hold the weight on their own. Begin placing supports under the branches
to help the trees carry the harvest through to full ripeness.
Do not forget to regularly clear fallen apples from the ground to prevent
the spread of disease and attraction of pests. Inspect trees regularly for
signs of pests or disease. If problems are found, take appropriate action.
One of the most important steps in apple tree care is applying
fertilizer!
In our posts, we have introduced you to the Biogor-Zh microbiological
fertilizer for fruit and berry crops. This complex product was developed
in accordance with the latest scientific advances related to rhizosphere
bacteria that promote plant growth.
It enhances plant resistance to adverse environmental conditions such as
drought, frost, and disease.
The product promotes:
- fruit and ovary formation, supporting full structural development;
- stimulation of active fruit growth and development, leading to increased yield;
- acceleration of fruit ripening, allowing harvest at optimal times;
- rich flavor and high nutritional value of the fruit;
- extended shelf life of the harvest, which is important for quality preservation.
An equally important factor in fertilizer application is the restoration
and maintenance of soil fertility! This ultimately supports long-term
and successful cultivation of fruit and berry crops.
The product contains microorganisms with probiotic, phosphate-mobilizing,
nitrogen-fixing, and cellulose-decomposing capabilities, as well as
carbohydrates, macro- and microelements essential for healthy plant
growth and development.
Biogor-Zh KM series microbiological fertilizer is a reliable solution
for successful cultivation of fruit and berry crops, ensuring high
yields and product quality!
