The secret of a rich harvest lies in summer feeding.
In order for the tree to please with abundant fruiting, it needs complex mineral nutrition.
Fertilizers are the main sources of macro- and microelements that pears need to form sweet and juicy fruits.
An expert of the online publication BelNovosti, agronomist, landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh told how to feed a pear in the summer.
It is impossible to grow a rich harvest on ash or nettle infusion alone.
At the beginning of summer, there is still an opportunity to fertilize the tree with nitrogen fertilizers, which will stimulate the formation of vegetative mass.
In the second half of June or early July, the pear is in dire need of phosphorus and potassium. When the ovaries begin to grow, you need to prepare potassium fertilizers. This macronutrient is responsible for the juiciness and sweetness of pear fruits.
In addition to potassium fertilizer, in June the tree can be fed with a liquid solution of mullein.
To do this, pour 1/5 of the rotted mullein into a garden bucket (10 l) and fill it with water to the brim, then mix thoroughly. For one adult tree - 1 bucket of fertilizer. Top dressing can be applied once every 14-15 days.
