How to grow apple and pear

Apple pear is a kind of fruit cultivated by grafting technology. Apple pear is a kind of fruit which is similar in shape to apple but is actually a pear. At present, apple pear is not widely planted in the market, so the yield is not very high, and it is relatively rare in the market. So do you know how to grow apples and pears? What the editor wants to share with you today is the simple planting techniques of apple and pear. If you are interested, you can read the following carefully.

1. Garden site preparation

The resistance of the improved apple pear is stronger than that of ordinary pear trees and apple trees, so its requirements on the planting environment are not very strict. In general, apple and pear can be planted in the environment suitable for planting pear trees, but it is best to choose areas with rich organic matter, good drainage, strong water and fertilizer conservation and close to water sources for planting. Of course, another important condition is that transportation conditions should also be convenient, otherwise it will also become a difficult problem for planting. After we have selected the garden, we need to carry out rectification and reform, which is generally carried out by the way of hole reclamation, which can reduce the labor intensity.

2. Seedling cultivation

In the cultivation of apple pear, we should first select a good rootstock, and then carry on the grafting treatment. We usually choose pear as the rootstock, and when the rootstock grows to about 35 centimeters, we can carry out grafting. The grafting of apple pear is generally carried out by bud grafting, and the grafting tools should be disinfected during grafting, otherwise it will affect the survival rate of grafting.

3. Transplanting and planting

After grafting, we also need to observe the survival after grafting. Generally speaking, transplanting can be carried out by the end of April, but if we want to wait for its growth habits to be stable, we can wait until autumn to transplant, but the survival rate is not as high as that planted in spring. When planting, we dig the planting hole according to the density of row spacing of three meters and plant spacing of 2.5 meters, and then plant the seedlings after pouring sufficient base fertilizer into the planting hole. When planting, lift the seedlings up, straighten the seedlings, and finally compact the ground and water it again. In addition, when we plant, we should make a reasonable allocation of pollination trees, generally according to the ratio of one to eight.

4. Field management

After the apple pear is planted and planted, we should carry out topdressing and watering scientifically, generally four times a year on average, according to the different growth periods of the apple pear tree. In the early stage of apple-pear tree growth, we mainly use nitrogen fertilizer, while in the later stage, phosphate fertilizer is mainly potassium fertilizer. The second is that we should carry out scientific shaping and pruning, generally using layered or umbrella shape to maintain the permeability of fruit trees. When the apple-pear tree blossoms, we'd better use artificial pollination, because its success rate of natural pollination is not high, and it is necessary to carry out reasonable flower and fruit thinning work. Finally, bagging technology can be used to prevent diseases and insect pests.

These are the planting techniques that the editor wants to share with you today. I hope I can help you. Although the apple pear has not been popular yet, I believe that it will be gradually recognized by everyone in the later stage, and the market prospect after that is believed to be very good.
