If you don't want next year's apple harvest to be a complete disappointment, then you'll need to provide the trees with proper care in the fall.
To do this, you will need to complete a number of necessary steps.
As a rule, we are talking about high-quality and abundant watering, cleaning the bark and other care procedures, notes the expert of the online publication "BelNovosti", agronomist and landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh .
What 3 tricks can improve your apple harvest next year?
Nutrients
The apple tree could have depleted its soil reserves during the season, so the deficit needs to be "covered". Experienced gardeners advise concentrating on compositions based on phosphorus and potassium.
You can choose any preparations and apply them in accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations.
Whitewash
This procedure is very important for maintaining the health of the tree. As a rule, it is better to postpone the procedure until November.
It's worth waiting until the rains have already stopped.
Mulch
It is worth remembering that in the fall it makes sense to renew the mulch layer in the trunk circles of fruit trees.
It is best to lay out a five-centimeter layer of humus.
