Want your apple tree to yield a good harvest next year? Feed it at the end of August with this
August feeding is very important for apple trees.
The fact is that at the end of summer the plant “directs” a lot of substances and microelements to filling the fruit.
But the tree also needs to form flower buds for the next season.
If you don’t help the apple tree during this period, then a year later the gardener is unlikely to get the same abundant harvest.
Don't want to be disappointed next year? Then give your fruit tree phosphorus and potassium! And do it in August or early September: then it may be too late.
How to feed an apple tree at the end of August
During this period, the following fertilizers will be beneficial for the plant: superphosphate and potassium sulfate.
For each square meter there should be 30 grams of the first product and 20 grams of the second.
Add fertilizer to the holes, fill these holes with plain water and bury them.
However, the products can simply be scattered around the plant (stepping back about half a meter) and then digging up the soil.
A gardener who has performed any of these procedures can be sure that there will be no problems with the formation of flower buds; the plant will definitely have enough strength for this.
