The apple tree is a tree that has been known to man for its tasty and healthy fruits for thousands of years.

Even on a small plot, summer residents find space for at least one tree. If there is very little space, then dwarf varieties come to the rescue, which are both compact and yield solid harvests.

Even novice gardeners know that without fertilizing, the apple tree will not bear fruit normally. The first fertilizer is applied in April.

4 best fertilizers for apple trees

To begin with, the trees are fertilized with rotted manure - 5 buckets under each apple tree. As an alternative, urea is added - 500 g per adult plant. The soil is moistened, urea is scattered, and then lightly embedded into the ground.

During the flowering period, apple trees are fertilized with the following composition: 250 g of superphosphate, 150 g of urea and 200 g of potassium sulfate per 50 liters of water.

At the moment of filling the apples, another solution is added. But this time, 30 g of dry sodium humate is dissolved in warm water, 130 g of nitrophoska is added, and then the volume is brought to 30 l.

When the harvest is collected, it is time for new feeding. Use 300 g of potassium sulfate and the same amount of superphosphate per 30-40 liters of water.
