Taste qualities

Pears of this variety are tender and juicy. The pulp has a semi-oily structure. The fruit is pleasant to the taste, with a sour sweetness. They are characterized by a thin, smooth leathery shell. They are especially good fresh, but are also used for winter preservation.

Ripening and fruiting

Baltic oily has a summer ripening period. Basically, the mass harvesting of fruits takes place at the end of August. Fruiting occurs in the 5-6th year of growth. Ripe fruits can hang on branches for a long time without crumbling.

Ripening of pears begins in the second half of summer and lasts until mid-autumn. To keep the pears fresh and tasty until winter, harvesting takes into account the characteristics of the variety, the ripening time and the weather conditions in the region.

Yield

The variety has consistently high yields. The average yield is 60 kg per tree. Baltic oily is famous for its regular annual fruiting.

Landing

For pears of the Pribaltiyskaya oily variety, light, loose and very fertile soil is ideal. The reaction is preferably neutral (pH 6.8-7.0). The landing site should be illuminated by sunlight all day. On the site intended for the cultivation of the Baltic oily pear, there should be no stagnation of melt and rainwater.

Ideally, it is better to take two-year-old seedlings, about 80 cm in height, the bark should look smooth, elastic and not dry. They are planted in late March or mid-November before the start of the active growing season. When planting in spring, a 60x60 pit is prepared in the fall, applying 25 g of manure, 350 g of sand and 90 g of potassium chloride as fertilizer. In the process of planting, you need to carefully spread the roots, place them in a hole and sprinkle them with earth. Then the seedling should be watered abundantly and carefully tamp the earth around it.

In order for the pears to be tasty and of high quality, and the yields to be consistently high, you need to responsibly approach the planting of a fruit tree. When planting a pear, you need to take into account many factors: correctly determine the timing, choose the right place, pay attention to the preparation of the planting pit.
Pear grafting is a simple and exciting procedure, but it requires accuracy and adherence to a number of rules. First of all, you need to take care of the selection and procurement of inoculation material, deal with the timing and methods of vaccination. An important point is also the choice of the rootstock, on the quality of which the result of the entire event and future fruiting will directly depend.

Growing and care

Pribaltiyskaya oily pear does not require special conditions for normal growth, it tolerates winter frosts well. It is a self-fertile variety that does not need pollinator planting. In hot summer weather, the tree needs to be watered with 10 liters of water every 3 days. Peat and humus are often used as mulch in a layer of up to 10 cm. Like many fruit trees, this variety requires regular pruning of thick and diseased branches in spring or autumn at temperatures above -7 degrees.

In order for a pear to grow correctly and give high yields, its branches must be cut off in time. Pruning can be done in both spring and fall. Depending on the age of the tree and the goals set, pruning can be: sanitary, thinning, shaping, stimulating, rejuvenating.
Feeding pears is a must-have procedure that cannot be ignored. Experienced gardeners recommend applying the first fertilizers two years after planting the tree. The process is divided into 3 main stages, which are determined by the timing of ripening, flowering and fruiting of the pear.
There are two ways to grow a pear seedling - vegetative and by seed. The first method is the most common, including propagation by cuttings, air layers, seedling buds. Seeds are grown less often, since in order to get a bountiful harvest with good taste of the fruit, the seedling will need to be grafted.
