It is not worth planting an apple tree again in the same place. The soil needs to rest for some time and recover.

You can plant a fruit tree in the same place again in five years. In this case, there will be no problems with growing, and you can count on a good yield.

You can plant annual crops or green manure in such a plot so that it does not remain empty.

If the apple tree is sick, the soil should be treated. Fitosporin-M or similar products are suitable for this to destroy fungi and pests.

Only after this can you proceed to planting the apple tree again.

How to plant an apple tree

To do this, you will need to prepare the soil. You need to make a hole and fill it with fertile soil. In this case, the soil should be taken at least 15 meters from the area where the tree grew.

You also need to add fertilizer, and only then can you move on to planting the fruit tree.
