Many summer residents plant fruit trees and shrubs only in the spring.
But there are garden crops, the planting of which should not be postponed until the beginning of the next summer cottage season.
It is worth planting such plants in the fall. After all, at this time of year the quantity and quality of seedlings sold is at its maximum: there is plenty to choose from.
But it is important to complete all procedures in the first half of October: then it will be too late.
So, which garden crops are ideal for fall planting?
Apple
First, you need to dig a planting hole and “fill” it.
In other words, the following fertilizers should be added to the hole: a couple of buckets of “organic matter”, half a kilo of unburned wood residue, 400 grams of superphosphate and about 200 grams of some source of potassium.
The apple tree must be planted in such a way that the root collar is at the level of the edges of the depression.
After planting the plant, the soil must be watered.
Let us emphasize: while an apple tree is suitable for autumn planting, a pear tree is not so much.
Currant
Dig a hole that will easily accommodate the plant's root system.
Plant the plant and then prune it.
You can also plant gooseberries in the fall. But you shouldn't plant strawberries and raspberries in the "golden" time of year.
