18.10.2024 18:25
Not all summer residents remember that at the end of the season, fruit trees need high-quality final watering.
Therefore, it is worth knowing what rules are important to follow.
What do they consist of?
Age of trees
The trees' need for moisture largely depends on the age of the plants themselves. Young seedlings need at least four buckets of water.
Middle-aged trees consume seven buckets
But older plants should be “treated” with ten liters of water.
When to add moisture
Since we are talking about a very large amount of water, it is necessary to calculate the watering time correctly. The ideal time for applying moisture is when the trees have already shed their leaves.
In this case, it is worth immediately starting to water and prepare fruit trees for winter.
Soil characteristics
It is always worth knowing that with some soil characteristics, watering is done more carefully. Summer residents who have close groundwater should be especially careful.
You should also be careful if the drainage is poor.
