When growing cherries on your site, you need to know some of the features of fruiting. After planting, the cherry tree usually does not bear fruit for the first few years. Under favorable conditions, this crop can bear fruit in 2 or 3 years. However, you often have to wait 4-5 years.

Yield

An average of 10-14 kg of fruits are removed from one tree.

Growing regions

The culture is recommended for growing in the Central, Middle Volga, Ural regions.

Self-fertility and the need for pollinators

A self-fertile variety, to obtain a high yield, the planting of additional pollinators is required: Vladimirskaya, Lyubskaya, Shubinka.

Landing

Young plants are planted in the spring, and a place for them is prepared in the fall. Seedlings are placed in sunny areas on the south or southwest side near a wall or fence. Groundwater should be no closer than 1.8 m from the surface. Acidic soils must be deoxidized: with chalk or lime - 500 g per 1 square meter. This procedure is carried out in October. In April, the earth is dug up with the addition of organic compounds: compost or manure - 8-10 kg per 1 sq. m.

When planting, a distance of 3 m is left between the seedlings.It is better that there are 3-4 different varieties nearby, the planting scheme: 2.5x3 m.The pit is made 80 cm in diameter, 60 cm deep. Drainage is poured at the bottom, garden soil with the addition of ash and compost. They are planted in the same way as all cherry trees. After planting, 10 liters of water are watered, the trunk circle is mulched. For the winter, a young tree is covered with agromaterial.

For guaranteed survival of a cherry seedling in a summer cottage, all basic requirements should be strictly observed during planting.It is necessary to correctly determine the timing of planting, correctly choose a seedling, prepare a planting pit.
Cherry grafting is an agricultural technique, during which one plant fragment is transferred to another to obtain a new crop with its own characteristics and properties. During the procedure, the aerial part of one tree is spliced ​​with a fragment of another culture. This will increase the yield of the cherry tree as well as increase its resistance to diseases and pests.

Growing and care

The robin belongs to the unpretentious varieties. During flowering and fruiting, she needs abundant watering. About 3 buckets are poured under the tree. In the heat, they water it more often, but do not allow excessive waterlogging. In autumn, at the end of September, during the water-charging irrigation, 10 buckets of water are used for adult cherries.

They are fed with organic and mineral fertilizers. In the spring, when the buds appear with urea or ammonium nitrate, you can also use rotted manure or chicken droppings. Manure is introduced into the area of ​​the trunk circle of 4-5 kg ​​per 1 sq. M. Chicken droppings are dissolved in water in a ratio: 1: 15, watered with 0.5 buckets per 1 sq. M. m. In the summer, fertilize with potassium-phosphorus compounds. In autumn, when digging, wood ash is introduced - 1 kg per 1 sq. m. Every 5 years, liming of the soil is carried out at a distance of 1.5 m from the trunk.

The tree must be cut regularly: to form a crown, remove diseased, weak and unnecessary branches. The plant is formed in a non-tiered way. In young trees, about 10 frame branches are laid for 3-4 seasons at a distance of 15 cm from each other, they should grow in the direction from the center of the crown.

One of the keys to a good cherry harvest is proper care, a mandatory step of which is pruning. Pruning is one of the simplest procedures, and it doesn't require a lot of tools and time. After the procedure, the cherry tree redistributes a significant part of its vitality to the formation of a crop, which becomes better and more stable.
For abundant fruiting and successful growth, the cherry tree must be fed. Cherry makes rather high demands on the quality of feeding. For it, you can use both organic and mineral mixtures. At each stage of the growing season of a fruit tree, it needs different microelements.

Disease and pest resistance

The robin is distinguished by good resistance to fungal diseases. Cherry has medium resistance to coccomycosis, weak to moniliosis. May be affected by perforated spotting. For prevention, every spring and autumn, they are treated with a 3% solution of Bordeaux liquid. If the disease begins to progress after flowering, spray with "Horus", "Abiga-Peak" or "Skor". For anthracnose, spray with the preparation "Polyarm" - 15 g per 10 liters. Several treatments can be carried out throughout the season. A 1% solution of copper sulfate helps against rust. The bark is prone to gum flow: the thickened resin is cleaned off, the crack is disinfected and sealed with garden varnish.

When attacked, aphids are sprayed with the compositions "Fufanon", "Bankol", and the remedy "Actellik" or "Rovikurt" helps from the cherry weevil.
