After the plum has produced a harvest, it needs special care.

It is important to remember that after planting, the plum does not need to be fed for three years: the nutrients added to the soil will be sufficient.

But after three years, it is worth feeding the plant every autumn.

What options are worth paying attention to?

Manure or compost

You can choose one of the options listed: they have approximately the same action scheme. These fertilizers will make the soil much better, and also restore the balance of nutrients.

One plum requires about ten liters of the indicated fertilizers.

The product should be spread in an even layer within the trunk circle. The older the plum, the more compost or manure will be required. Sometimes, for an adult plant, it is necessary to add about 50 liters.

Horse manure

This is a unique product that has excellent potential in matters of plum care in autumn. The specified component is kept for a year.

Next, take one and a half kilograms of fertilizer per bucket of water, mix and wait 72 hours. Next, mix one liter of concentrate with a bucket of water and water the plantings. One bucket of the prepared product will be needed for one plum.
