The pear can be grown both in the south and in regions with an unstable climate. When choosing seedlings, it is necessary to take into account frost resistance, taste and disease resistance. The best representative of this fruit in the Far East region is the Noyabrskaya pear.
Description of the variety
The fruits of the described tree can be used to make compotes and dried fruits, and jam is also obtained from them.
This tree has strong growth, branches are well branched, shoots are thick. The crown is formed round-pyramidal.
Fruits appear on two-three-year-old wood, are formed on shortened twigs and simple ringlets.
Fruit characteristics
The November pear is small in size, with a maximum of 65 grams. It is appreciated for its juicy and slightly oily pulp. The fruits can be stored until the end of December, and if frozen, then throughout the winter.
Taste qualities
The fruits of this tree are sour-sweet.
Ripening and fruiting
Early autumn variety, pears begin to be removed from the tree at the end of September. Trees of the described variety bear fruit 3-4 years after planting the seedling. Most fruits can be harvested for 5-6 years.
Yield
This indicator is high and ranges from 54.8 to 212 kg / ha.
Growing regions
Mainly grown in the Far East.
Self-fertility and the need for pollinators
Pollinators are essential for a good harvest.
Landing
In order for the November pear to develop quickly and bring a rich harvest, it is planted in a well-lit place, protected from gusty winds. The soil in this place should be light, fertile, with the location of groundwater at a depth of 2-3 meters.
Wet, heavy soil leads to root rot and death of the plant. There should be enough light for a pear of this variety, so it is planted at a distance of 3 m from buildings and 5 m from other trees.
On a young tree, the root system should be well developed and healthy, without mechanical damage. A trunk with a diameter of at least 1.5 cm. Plants with a closed root system can be planted in spring, summer or autumn. Noyabrskaya pear seedlings with open roots adapt longer, so they can be planted in the spring before the leaves bloom, and in the fall a month before the onset of cold weather.
Proper landing is essential for rapid growth and development. 2 months before planting the November pear, prepare a hole 80 cm wide and 60 cm deep, and mix the excavated soil with humus and mineral fertilizers. If the ground is hard, add sand.
For better survival, the pear seedling of this variety is advised to soak for several hours in warm water with the addition of a growth stimulant. Before planting, the root system is carefully straightened and placed in the planting pit. Sprinkle the Noyabrskaya seedling with earth, tamp each layer so as to remove air pockets. The root collar should be 5 cm above the ground.
Growing and care
The productivity and taste of the fruits of this variety depend on proper watering. Pear Noyabrskaya is a drought-resistant variety, but with a lack of moisture, the plant does not develop well and bears fruit. Therefore, watering is an important part of maintenance. An adult plant has a well-developed root system and it penetrates deep into the ground, so such a tree can find moisture on its own. But there are also rules for watering.
For a young pear:
during the growing season - up to 3 buckets of water;
in the summer - 50 liters of water;
in the fall, before preparing for winter - 150 liters of water.
For fruit trees:
from the moment of flowering to harvesting - 5 buckets of water;
during leaf fall - 150 liters of water.
Pear watering is carried out in grooves specially dug along the perimeter of the trunk to a depth of 15 cm.
Timely feeding also affects the productivity of Noyabrskaya. An excess of fertilizer, as well as a deficiency, can negatively affect yields. Fertilization scheme for one pear.
In early spring, before the appearance of buds, 10 buckets of organic matter or 0.5 kg of urea are introduced. Urea is used strictly according to the instructions, fresh manure is not used.
During the flowering period, it is better to take complex mineral fertilizers: 50 g of superphosphate, 40 g of potassium sulfate and 1 liter of diluted manure are added to a bucket of water. Each plant consumes 4 buckets of this mixture.
And also dilute 0.5 kg of nitrophoska and 1 g of sodium humate in 10 liters of water. Up to 5 buckets are poured under each tree.
After harvesting, 300 g of superphosphate and potassium sulfate are used. They are simply scattered around the pear.
The quality and quantity of the November pear harvest depends on a well-formed crown. Pruning is done in early spring. In the fall, dry and damaged branches are removed. The one-year-old pear is pruned so that it remains 50-60 cm above the ground.
In 2-3-year-old plants, the trunk is retracted to a quarter of the length. Additional shoots are also removed, leaving 4 strong branches growing at an acute angle.
Branches growing inside the crown are cut strictly into a ring.
Shoots no more than 3 cm thick are removed to prevent damage to the bark.
Be sure to whitewash the Noyabrskaya trunk. The procedure is carried out in early spring and late autumn. It helps to protect the trunk from sunlight. Lime is used, which is diluted in warm water to the consistency of thick sour cream. Whitewashing is carried out in dry, sunny weather. Before finishing, the trunk is cleaned with a metal brush or a wooden scraper to remove moss, lichen and damaged bark. Cracks are covered with garden pitch. For whitewashing, use a brush or a special gun.
To maintain the November pear, many gardeners use combined fertilizers. Others prefer to prepare complex complex mixtures on their own:
potassium chloride - 1 tablespoon;
superphosphate - 2 tablespoons;
water - 10 liters.
All ingredients are mixed in warm water until completely dissolved. The ready-made fertilizer is used to irrigate the trunk circle.
There is another option:
urea - 1 tablespoon;
superphosphate - 2 tablespoons;
potassium chloride - 1 tablespoon;
ash - 2 glasses;
ammophoska - 3 tablespoons.
All ingredients are mixed and spread out at a distance of 60 cm from the trunk.
It is important! It should be remembered that an overdose of fertilizers can lead to loss of yield, therefore, strict adherence to the dosage is necessary.
Disease and pest resistance
The Noyabrskaya variety has good resistance to scab and fungal diseases, but this does not mean that preventive treatment in early spring should be abandoned. Commercial fungicides and insecticides are a great solution to get rid of insect infestations.
Like any other fruit trees, the pear needs protection from various diseases and pests. When planting a pear on your site, you need to know in advance what diseases you should beware of. To successfully carry out the struggle, it is necessary first to correctly identify the cause of the problem. It is important to distinguish signs of disease from manifestations of the presence of insects, mites, caterpillars and other types of pests.
Resistance to soil and climatic conditions
This variety does not have a high level of shedding, it is winter-hardy, and therefore feels great in the harsh climate of the Far East.
