Cherry trees are a common “resident” of many summer cottages.
And this is not surprising, since the fruits of the cherry tree are not only tasty, but also extremely healthy.
Unfortunately, the tree often disappoints its owners with a small number of fruits or even their complete absence.
A common cause is a fungal disease, such as moniliosis. A sign of the disease is the appearance of light gray formations on the lower part of the leaves.
Another reason for the reduction in fertility is the proximity to certain types of trees and bushes.
This category includes gooseberries, raspberries and members of the conifer family. It is also not recommended to plant sea buckthorn and black currants nearby.
Experienced gardeners advise planting cherries as far away from apple trees as possible. The fact is that this tree deprives cherries of a large number of useful elements.
The apple tree has a developed root system, which draws the necessary microelements from the soil for the cherry tree.
