In early October, the apple tree already gave the main forces to the crop, and the tree looks tired. The foliage gradually turns yellow, and the roots continue to work, accumulating resources for winter. If at this moment help the apple tree with a simple subtract, in the spring it meets the new season of strong, healthy and ready for fruiting.
One of the most affordable ways: to bring ash under a tree. It has potassium, calcium and trace elements that strengthen the root system and increase frost resistance. It is enough to scatter a handful of ash in the trunk circle and slightly sprinkle with earth.
An infusion of humus or compost will also help. It can be prepared in a few days: pour organics with water, let it be transferred and then pour under the apple. Such liquid top dressing works softly, but effective: nutrients are immediately absorbed by roots.
It is important not to forget about moisture. In autumn, the tree needs the so -called “moisture -loading watering.” One or two abundant watering in October help the roots preserve life longer even in frozen soil.
As a result, the apple tree leaves in the winter not weakened, but supported. In the spring, her kidneys are revealed together, flowering goes more fully, and the fruits are formed large and sweet. All this is thanks to simple and timely care in October.
