How many years do potted cherry trees bear fruit?

Potted cherry trees usually bear fruit in 3-5 years. The fruit can be eaten as fruit, with bright color, crystal beauty, red as agate and yellow as fat. The fruit is rich in sugar, protein, vitamins, calcium, iron, phosphorus, potassium and other elements.

First, how to maintain potted cherry trees?

1. Basin soil

Cherry trees like sunshine and rich, moist soil. The best pots for growing cherries are wooden boxes, wooden buckets or burning pots, or flowerpots with a diameter of 30 centimeters.

two。 Seedling stock

The seedlings grow strongly, the branches and buds are full, the root system is developed, and there are no diseases and insect pests. Perennial young trees require short fixed stem, reasonable distribution of branches and large cutting between branches.

3. Light

Putting cherry in the courtyard or balcony with better lighting conditions is conducive to flower bud differentiation and achieve the purpose of early fruiting and multi-fruiting. Poor shade and ventilation can easily lead to plant growth, poor growth and so on, with little or no fruit.

4. Fertilizer application

Fertilize once every four or five months to meet the nutritional growth needs of cherries. Organic fertilizers such as rotten rapeseed cake water and rice washing water can be selected when fertilizing. Or use soybean dregs after beating soy milk, dregs after squeezing fruit juice, a small amount of soil on the edge of the cherry tree flowerpot, fill it with soil and use it as fertilizer.

5. Watering

In summer, water is irrigated once a day, and some water is often sprayed on the leaves to cool and clean the trees. Irrigation is less frequent in spring and autumn. There is almost no watering in winter. The amount of irrigation should be slightly dripped from the bottom of the container.

6. Thinning fruit

When the number of flowers is large, the key point is to do a good job of thinning flowers and fruits, thinning some flower buds, after fruiting, thinning some poorly developed fruits in time, and good fruits continue to grow.

7. Pruning

Winter shearing is mainly to adjust the tree type and balance the tree potential. It mainly removes the growing competitive branches, upper dorsal branches, strong branches and slender branches. The elongated branch is truncated, resulting in the retraction of the branch. The purpose of summer pruning is to maintain the tree shape, promote flowers and protect fruit. Cut off the competitive branch and the upper branch on the back. Pick the heart when the branch grows to 15-20cm. It is usually completed before July, no more than twice a year. In September or so, when the branch first reaches the top, flatten the branch.
