Landing

To collect a lot of fruits in the fall, you need to know the nuances of planting, as well as properly care for Renet Chernenko.

It is recommended to plant apple trees in full accordance with the following rules:

1. Saplings are planted in the spring, when the buds have not yet dissolved. Or after the fall of the foliage in the autumn, but 14 days before the onset of the first frost. Otherwise, low temperatures will destroy weak seedlings. If apple trees are planted in areas where autumn is far from warm, it is better to postpone planting until spring.
2. Apple trees by Renet Chernenko, purchased in the markets, must be carefully transported. They should be transported to the sites in mixtures with clay, wrapped in wet sacking.
3. If several trees move, then peat or sawdust, slightly moistened, is poured out under the roots.
4. Having delivered the apple trees to the site, their roots are shortened. Only those that have a dried or decayed appearance are removed. And also painful and with growths.
5. If the root system dries out, it is recommended to keep it in water for several days.
6. In areas where clay soils prevail or groundwater flows, it is not necessary to keep the pits open for a long time. In such lands, trees of the Renet Chernenko variety should be planted exclusively in the spring.
7. Planting holes should be with steep walls, more than half a meter deep and up to 120 centimeters wide.
8. During planting of seedlings in clay soil, drainage is placed at the bottom. Branches are usually used. This action will help to avoid stagnant water, and the tree will gain access to air and nutrients.
9. Clay is poured into the bottom of the pit with sandy soil to retain the liquid.
10. A stake is hammered into the finished hole, then a seedling is placed, so that the neck of the root system is located 30 centimeters higher from the ground. The tree is tied to a support, a nutrient mixture is poured onto the root.
11. The hole is filled with earth. The result is a low mound, which is trampled down, watered, sprinkled with hay. Sawdust and straw are also used for this.

Care

Planting seedlings correctly is just the first step on the road to harvest. An active period of growth of apple trees by Renet Chernenko is observed in June after the 15th. During this period, the trees are fed with liquid fertilizers.

Top dressing is done after rain or before it. Fertilizer is poured into 15 cm wells. They should be prepared in advance.

During the first few years after planting, the trees need constant watering. Until mid-July, they are watered at least 5 times. One apple requires 30 liters of water. Trees that have reached adulthood are moistened differently. The first watering is carried out before June 15, the second - after 1 month, the third - until mid-August, the fourth - in the autumn months, but before the onset of frost.

For a rich harvest, you need to prune trees. If this is not done, then not enough lateral shoots are formed. As a result, the main branches have to hold an excessive amount of heavy fruit. Pruning is carried out before fruiting, then at the very beginning, the last time during the formation of apples.

Diseases and pests

Correct planting, timely care is not a guarantee of getting a great harvest. You need to protect apple trees from various diseases and pests. Rodents often attack trees. A small fence will help protect plants from them. The material for it will be a small mesh half a meter in height. It is dug into the ground to a depth of 30 centimeters. To prevent rodents from gnawing the trunks, they are wrapped in glass wool. It will also protect trees well from cold weather. Damaged apple trees are covered with garden varnish, a film is wound on top.

Various insects can also take a liking to plants.To fight, the following actions are required:

• digging and cleaning each trunk circle;
• conducting sanitary pruning;
• whitewashing of boles;
• installation of protective structures;
• spraying with insecticides.

The main advantage of Renet Chernenko is a high level of scab resistance. This disease is most common in fruit trees. If signs of scab are detected (and it can still appear in a particularly rainy summer), apple trees are sprayed with copper or iron sulfate.

Favorable growing areas

In accordance with the State Register, plants are recommended for breeding in the following regions:

• Central;
• Central Black Earth;
• Middle Volzhsky;
• Ural;
• Volgo-Vyatsky;
• Northwestern.

It is in the above zones that apple trees grow well, give a rich harvest and reveal their maximum qualities.
