You can start planting this fruit tree as early as April.

This must be done before buds appear on the seedling.

But it is necessary to ensure that the weather is cloudy and windless.

As for the time of planting, it is better to do it in the morning or evening. The temperature during the day and at night should be above zero.

It should also be taken into account that if the place is too dark and cold for a fruit plant, the shoots will stretch out, the tree will become weak, and you will have to wait a long time for fruiting.

As for groundwater, it should be at a distance of one and a half to two meters. You should not choose lowlands.
Light and loose soil is suitable, and the acidity level should be neutral.

It would be a good idea to refer to the lunar calendar so that the seedlings take root well.

Favorable days:

  • in March - 11-13;
  • in April - 7-9, 17-18;
  • in May - 6-9, 13-15, 17.
