Before planting any crop in his garden, the gardener must definitely get acquainted with its features and growing rules.

Description of the variety

The Antey apple tree belongs to the winter varieties. It appeared due to the crossing of several similar varieties: Newtosh, Babushkino and Belorusskoe raspberry. Its breeding was carried out by the authors from Belarus - BelNIIP. The tree is different from other apple trees. It is low, its crown is thin. At first glance, it looks like a pyramid. Branches are light brown. When the shoots are young, they are dark brown in color. The leaves are green and large. They are oval in shape, but pointed towards the ends, along the edges there are also sharp teeth. After planting, it should take three years for the seedling to start bearing fruit. The apple tree gives a rich harvest every year.

The harvest ripens in autumn towards the end of September. After assembly, after two months, they begin to mature. The consumer period lasts until December, in rare cases until March.

Features, pros and cons

To obtain a bountiful harvest of fragrant apples, the garden must be periodically renewed by planting seedlings of productive and new varieties. The choice of an apple seedling must be approached with all responsibility, because low-quality planting material at best will not take root, and at worst it will die in the prime of years after numerous investments in its health and normal formation.

Growing features

There are two seasons for planting seedlings: spring, when the buds have not yet appeared on the plants, and in autumn, after leaf fall. But Antey's apple tree prefers autumn more, because a lot of time has been given to take root on the site. The main thing is to choose a not cold day. In the spring, all vital energy is spent on growth, plus many useful elements require the kidneys. Due to the lack of strength, the root system does not form in the tree.

The area should be rich in sunlight. The soil is fertile. If cabbage or radishes grew on the ground, then it is advisable to abandon planting in this place. Vegetable crops have taken all nutrients and minerals from the soil. The apple tree will not take root. And also high groundwater is undesirable on the site. With frequent contact with them, the root system will begin to rot. This will ruin the entire tree.

Before planting a seedling in the ground, it must be immersed in water. The roots must be saturated with moisture. The pit goes down 80-90 centimeters, its diameter is 1 meter. Cover the bottom with a drainage layer. Pre-fertilized soil is laid on it. An additional support should be installed nearby. Water the future apple tree abundantly.

Growing this variety is easy. The main thing is not to allow the land to be dry. The tree needs to be watered especially often in dry conditions. And also to feed the soil, treat the trunk from pests, cut off dried and dead branches. Loosen the soil around the tree in hot weather. This is necessary so that the roots do not dry out and weeds do not form.

Top dressing occurs three times in one season.

  • When the flowering period ends. Fertilizers should contain phosphorus and nitrogen.

  • Formation of the fetus. Feeding restores mineral components.

  • Collection of fruits. Nutrition of the tree for the coming season.

When fruits appear on the branches, they must be treated with calcium every two weeks.

In spring, excess branches are removed from the tree. They are no longer useful, but only take away the nutritional components. But no more than one third is removed. Crown formation occurs in autumn. As soon as the last leaf has fallen off, you can begin to sanitize the apple tree. It is important to remember that the central shoot must remain above the rest of the branches. The branches are longer at the bottom than at the top.

Planting apple trees is a very important, troublesome and responsible business. Its survival and full-fledged fruiting depends on the correct procedure. Before planting, you need to choose the right planting material, determine the location and prepare the soil.
A successful grafting helps to solve a whole range of problems, first of all: to get the varieties of interest and save space on the site.The vaccination technique itself is not so difficult and even a novice summer resident can master it. Vaccinations can be done during the entire growing season.
Along with top dressing and pruning necessary for apple trees, watering is also a significant contribution to the correct development of the culture, and therefore to a high yield. Improper watering, carried out inopportunely, without enough water, can bring big trouble to the fruit tree.
An important point in caring for an apple tree in the open field is feeding and fertilizing. Top dressing of apple trees begins in early spring and ends in late autumn. Lack of nutrition leads not only to a decrease in the quality and quantity of the crop, but also reduces the immunity of the tree, making it more vulnerable to pests and diseases. And with the autumn procedure, the tree will be able to lay more fruit buds, which will have a positive effect on the future harvest.
Despite the fact that apple trees are considered quite unpretentious plants, they still need proper autumn care. Timely preparation of trees for winter makes them more resistant to winter frosts, as well as increase future yields.

The apple tree is a popular fruit crop among gardeners. It can be found in many summer cottages. But at the same time, such trees are often affected by various diseases. It is very important to recognize the disease in time and carry out the necessary procedures for a speedy recovery. Otherwise, the fruits will be spoiled, and the tree itself may die altogether.

Fruiting of aging trees, as well as the quality of the harvest, decreases. Therefore, if the tree is aging and there is a need to replace it, you need to think about how to propagate the apple tree so as not to lose the variety. For reproduction of an apple tree, several methods are used: by seeds, layering, eyes and cloning (budding).
