How to feed strawberries in the fall so that there is a good harvest. How to improve plant survival after transplantation - an overview of preparations

Strawberry bushes for good fruiting are recommended to be transplanted once every 2 to 3 years. Growing longer than this period, strawberries gradually cease to bear fruit. The fact is that during this time pests and spores of the fungus take root in the soil, as well as bacteria that adversely affect the growth of bushes and the number of ovaries. Crop rotation rejuvenates plants, so in the fall you need to work in the garden so as not to be left without berries next year.

When to transplant strawberries

When there is time and desire. But the result of transshipment of plants in spring, summer or autumn will be different:

Spring bushes will not bloom and bear fruit in summer, you will have to wait until next year. Their task is to take root and gain strength.. In the spring it is better to root the mustache - they are small, they are just starting to grow anyway. Some summer residents cut them off in the fall and dig in, and in the spring they take them out to the garden.

In summer it is problematic to plant bushes garden strawberries, as in the heat, they take root worse and get sick more often. Seedlings will need to be watered in the morning and in the evening, if there is no rain. The most optimal summer month for transshipment is July. Closer to August.

AT middle lane and in northern regions they do this, because the bushes still have a month to settle down in a new place, and then the cold comes. If the bush began to kick out new leaves after transplanting in the summer, then the event was successful. One minus - there will be no more berries on the summer bushes, only next spring.

The most convenient time is the end of summer or autumn. In warm regions, summer lasts longer and bushes can be planted even in September, because the temperature will begin to drop only in October. Bushes after wintering will bloom and produce a crop. In this way, you can plant a whole plantation and not be left without strawberries in the spring.

During the autumn transshipment of strawberries, she needs to be helped to take root faster. To do this, stock up on fertilizers - organic or mineral in granules, which can be used to feed strawberries after transplantation in August.

How to choose strawberry seedlings

The owner of the site probably knows when he last planted strawberries. Therefore, if a bush grows in one place for 4 - 5 years, it is better not to transfer it to a new bed. It is better to take young shoots - mustaches or two-year-old garden strawberry bushes. If there are 3-4 leaves and a root system on the bush, it can be used for planting.

If transplanted remontant varieties, which still bear fruit in the fall, then you need to transfer to a new place those bushes on which there are no berries left or to remove the entire crop, cutting off the green berries and flower stalks. Thus, all the energy of the bush will go to rooting and the bush will winter well. Usually, strawberry transplantation begins 2 weeks after the crop is harvested from the bush.

The maximum yield growth in a new place is given by bushes that were transplanted at one or two years of age.

In autumn, the rains begin and the heat subsides, which strawberries do not like so much. Therefore, the conditions for survival are the most favorable.

The procedure for transplantation

First choose a place. It is best if greens or early crops grew in front of the strawberries in the garden - radishes, onions, garlic.

There will be time to contribute nutrients and restore the amount of humus in the soil. Fertilizers when transplanting strawberries are the main condition for its fruiting for the next year.

1.5 months before the proposed transplant strawberries dig the soil with humus or compost. Fresh manure is not used, unless it is insisted on for a week before being introduced into the soil and diluted with water so that ammonia does not damage the roots, which are vulnerable to transplantation.

On the square meter contribute at least 5 kg of organic matter. You can shed the soil with biological solutions to speed up its decomposition. For example - Baikal EM. The soil must be moist, since only in a humid environment do bacteria effectively process organic matter that has fallen into the soil. All weeds are removed.

The time for transshipment is chosen in the evening so that the sun does not injure the plants. Even better on cloudy days.

Dig a hole along the length of the root system.

Put a layer of sand on the bottom.

Pour 2 - 3 liters of water and wait until it is absorbed.

Put the bush in the ground and sprinkle with soil. At a depth of 2 cm from the top layer sprinkle with granules of potassium sulfate and superphosphate. Top fertilizer cover with soil.

Water the root area with 1 liter of water.

The root neck should be above the soil surface. Roots should not be exposed. If the soil sags and opens part of the root system, the earth is added and compacted.

It is important what fertilizer to apply when transplanting strawberries. Can not use nitrogen supplements, since after them the green mass grows and the plant will weaken in winter, it may even die at the first frost. The main nutrients are phosphorus-potassium fertilizers to support the roots and bookmark the kidneys for the next year.

Landing under the film

The method has both advantages and negative sides. If the soil is covered with a black film, evaporation decreases and moisture remains in the soil longer. But this can lead to the formation of mold and plant diseases.

Therefore, the hole under the bush is made wider so that air enters the root zone, and the film itself is placed on a layer of straw and is not pressed strongly to the ground. The air will circulate better and the berries will stay clean. At the same time, weeds will not be able to grow, as they will not receive sunlight.

Lutrasil film will help plants to winter, protecting them from freezing.

Sometimes Lutrasil is used for trapezoidal landings. It prevents the soil from spreading, maintaining the embankment in the desired shape.

On the suburban area this method is very time consuming and does not differ much from conventional landings. The root system is raised above the soil surface in the northern regions so that the roots freeze less, and fresh manure is placed at the base of the embankment, which decomposes and heats the roots additionally. The height of the embankment is 50 - 60 cm.

When and how to fertilize strawberries during transplantation

One method has already been described - feeding strawberries during transplantation in the fall with mineral fertilizers, which were added directly to the hole, and then watered. The soil was previously enriched with humus. Thus, the strawberry bushes received all the necessary nutrition in the winter.

There are other ways than to feed strawberries in August when transplanting:

Wood ash. It also has an organic origin, contains potassium and phosphorus, as well as trace elements - calcium, copper, boron, zinc, iodine. It is better not to add dry matter, since ash has alkaline reaction and can damage the roots.

Phosphate fertilizers will not dissolve in an alkaline environment, root nutrition will be limited. 300 g of ash are insisted in a bucket of water for 3-4 days and poured liter of solution under the root, then sprinkled with earth. Strawberry nutrition is provided until spring, and in the spring it will be necessary to spray with a foliar solution of urea to stimulate the greens to grow.

Bone flour. Contains calcium and phosphorus. When embedded in the ground, an extract is made by pouring boiling water over the substance. With such top dressing of phosphorus nutrition, strawberry bushes will last for 3 years. You will need to feed with nitrogen and potassium.

You can fertilize strawberries in the fall when transplanting one superphosphate. the main objective- support root system. The composition of superphosphate includes nitrogen in a small amount, which does not affect the wintering of plants, and calcium, which stimulates metabolic processes and accelerates rooting. Superphosphate must be poured with boiling water and allowed to stand for a day, stirring occasionally to completely dissolve. So it will quickly get into the tissues of the plant.

The main thing is that the bushes after transplantation are regularly watered if the weather is warm. Watering should not be superficial. It is necessary to calculate the amount of water so that water penetrates to the very roots.

How to fertilize garden trees when transplanting- today we will dwell on this issue, since the wrong idea about this process can lead to the death of the tree.
Transplantation plants are most easily tolerated in the fall during a period of natural deep dormancy. Therefore, it is highly desirable to transplant seedlings of ornamental and fruit crops after the complete end of their growing season. Basically, you can plant fruit trees also in winter and spring, however, the outdoor temperature must necessarily exceed zero degrees.

For successful transplantation and survival of seedlings, the following sequence of actions is important - first cooling, then leaf fall, as a result, the plants go into a dormant stage, and only after this period seedlings should be transplanted. Do not confuse! During this period, just a transplant gives, according to observations, the largest percentage of survival.

Planting a garden does not mean that you will always have a stable harvest. In the process of growth, each tree needs an increasing amount of various nutrients. It's a paradox, but the less fertilizer you apply, the better they are absorbed by the tree itself. And the more fertilizer there is, the higher the likelihood of dying off the roots or other diseases. It is especially important to feed a tree when transplanting it even a short distance from the main place in the garden, not to mention changing the soil. It loses about eighty percent of the roots in this case.

When the roots come into direct contact with undecomposed organic matter, nitrogen or potassium, then it is then that they can become dead and the tree die. Therefore, do not rush to immediately fertilize, but simply loosen the ground more often, water and monitor the water temperature during the irrigation process. But when new roots grow, then pour the near-stem circles with weak solutions of complex fertilizers or put well-rotted manure and dig the ground with it shallowly. Such prepared manure, humus, compost can be mixed and added to the pit when filling it up after transplanting seedlings.

Organic fertilizers play a physical role in plant life. They improve its structure and at the same time nourish the plants. In addition, this type of fertilizer perfectly mulches the soil around the tree. Under raspberries, such a mulch should always be kept. And so that the earth does not dry out and always “keeps” the temperature necessary and comfortable for raspberries, the mulch is covered from above with straw or white sponbond. Nitrogen should be added to trunk circle only when necessary and only when you are convinced that the trees have fully taken root.

Hello!

Agree, flowers in the house are a joy for the soul, a kind of small oasis, looking at which we give rest to both nerves and eyes tired of the computer and TV. Beneficial features indoor plants are very multifaceted and the hostesses are not in vain happy to breed them.

Moreover, most flowers do not require our constant attention, most often they only have to be watered, and all other "operations" are carried out from time to time - top dressing, spraying, transplanting.

And today we will master the most important operation, learn how to properly transplant indoor flowers, which have long taken root in our home, and flowers purchased in a store.

So, based on our requests, we chose a flower, and, satisfied with the purchase, brought it home. Now it is imperative to follow all the rules for transplantation, otherwise after a while it will be necessary to carry out a funeral ceremony for the removal of the dried "body". Either in best case the flower will hurt for a long time, get used to it, but will never become as beautiful as it was at first.

Transplantation of purchased flowers has its own nuances, during which housewives often make the same mistakes. If you are going to transplant a pet that has already settled down with you, then points 3-5 will come in handy.

Error one

After purchase, the plant is immediately placed next to other home flowers.

You should not do this, because if your "newcomer" is infected with pests, it will harm his neighbors as well. Therefore, after the purchase, we send the plant to "quarantine", during which it, at the same time, will be able to "get used" to the house. Usually "flower quarantine" lasts 1-2 weeks, during which the flower acclimatizes, and we do not disturb it, do not fertilize or replant it.

During this time, we observe the plant and if pests and pathogens do not appear on it, then we boldly place it in our collection. If they appear, then we “identify” the pest and neutralize it by treating it with special preparations.

Error two

And the most important thing is that a flower bought in a store is left to grow in the same pot in which it was sold.

The fact is that the transportation of natural soil in open containers (which are flower pots) across the border is prohibited. Therefore, manufacturers replace the nutrient soil with an inert mixture during transportation.

The inert mix is a combination of coconut flakes, perlite (natural form of volcanic glass) and long acting concentrated fertilizers. Plants can live and develop in such a mixture only for a limited period of time. And if you do not get rid of it the root system of plants, they will die.

Alternatively, plants in stores may be contained in peat, which is also detrimental to them at home.

Several times when transplanting, right in the main pot with earth, on the roots of flowers, I found special bags or small pots. If they are not removed, then the plant will simply stop growing and developing. Therefore, transplanting flowers in pots is vital.

Error three

Incorrectly selected soil.

Now on sale there are soils for different types plants. But, based on my experience, I will say that they are still not ideal for transplanting your green pets. And almost always, the composition of the soil has to be adjusted.

Soils can be:

Too dense, then we add additives to it, which will loosen it, allowing the roots of the plant to breathe. You can add coarse sand (river, lake), or perlite, which we talked about above, in this case, acting as sand. Or long-staple peat (in which imported plants grow in stores).

If the soil, on the contrary, is too peaty, it is necessary to compact it by adding to it a denser and more nutritious type of soddy soil.

Mistake four

Flower transplantation is carried out according to a gentle scheme

That is, the flower is transplanted into home pot along with part of the soil from the purchased pot in which it grew. This technique is not suitable for purchased flowers.

In the transplantation of imported plants, technology plays the most important role, with it, first of all, we must clean the root system of the plant from the “substrate” in which it was from the moment it left the foreign greenhouse until the moment it arrived at your home.

We take the plant out of the transport pot and put its roots in a container with warm water from the tap to soak them. While the flower is soaking, we lay drainage on the bottom of the pot and pour nutrient soil.

When the main part of the substrate “falls off” from the roots of the plants, carefully take it out, holding it by the base of the trunk, and transfer it under running water. Under running water, completely wash out the remains of the substrate from the roots. After that, it is recommended to spray the root system with a Kornevin-type preparation, but to be honest, I have never done this.

Carefully lower the plant onto the prepared soil and completely sprinkle the roots on top. Then pour abundantly with warm settled water.

When transplanting home indoor flowers, we use the same technology.

The only exception is that we do not wash off the soil from the roots, but just shake it off a little and lower the plant, together with the remnants of the “native” land, into the prepared pot, fill the root system with prepared soil and pour it with settled water. Everything, our flower is absolutely happy 🙂, but is still weak, so we protect the transplanted flower from cooling, drafts and waterlogging.

Mistake five

Early plant nutrition

After such a “cruel” transplant, many housewives want to help their pet recover and settle down in new conditions, for which they begin to add various top dressings.

But in no case should this be done, it will be possible to start feeding the transplanted plant no earlier than in a month and a half and only after it, moreover, shows the first signs of normal rooting - new leaves, sprouts, shoots will appear.

The method of transplantation that I have described may seem too traumatic. But do not be afraid, in fact, it turns out to be much more humane for the plant, since the pet will not suffer in a substrate unusual for its habitat.

I applied this method of transplantation to all the plants purchased in the store, and they all tolerated it safely, continuing to grow and delight with their beauty. The only “missing” plant I had was myrtle, but it disappeared due to improper care of it, the intricacies of which at that time I did not know, but that’s a completely different story.

I hope that my experience of transplanting green pets will be useful to you, and if I missed something in the article, I will be glad for your tips.

Whatever roses you grow in your flower garden or at home, in any case it will be useful to know how roses are transplanted correctly.

Features of transplanting an adult rose to replace a dead bush

When one of the rose bushes suddenly dies in the rose garden, another, also an adult bush, is planted in its place.

When growing these beautiful flowers, sooner or later there is a need for a transplant - immediately after the acquisition, you need to move to a larger pot with fresh nutrient soil, and garden roses have to be transplanted for various reasons:

it is not always possible to initially correctly plan the design of the site, or construction suddenly begins, and there is no other way out but to move the flower bed with roses to another place;
when planting seedlings, neighboring plants were not taken into account, from which the roses began to hurt and die;
due to sandy, overly loose soil, the roots of roses were deepened, or on a heavy clay soil were extruded to the surface;
the main ones on the site were not taken into account;
under the mature bushes in the old rose garden the soil was depleted;
rose bushes have grown too large and have lost their decorative effect.

The latter option is possible with improper care of own-rooted roses, if you do not cut the roots of the bush in time and allow the stems to grow into different sides. At the same time, it is not at all necessary to dig out the entire bush, it is enough just to cut off and transplant part of the bush, so you will rejuvenate old bush get more out of it abundant flowering. In addition, you do not have to worry about how to root a rose before planting in a new place - it will already have a developed root system.

In other cases, if landscape design the site was thought out in advance, and a place suitable in all respects was chosen for planting roses, it will no longer be necessary to replant the accustomed rose bushes.

When one of the rose bushes suddenly dies in the rose garden, another, also an adult bush, is planted in its place. In this case, you need to carefully approach the choice of a plant - a rose must have suitable sizes bush, the color of its flowers should be in harmony with the environment. It is better to use the same variety, since planting, for example, a strong-growing variety among weak-growing ones will negatively affect other plants.

A new bush can be transplanted in April or October, having previously dug up the old plant and completely replaced the ground with a new one to a depth of up to half a meter, within a radius of about 30 cm. For greater convenience, all necessary work it is recommended to prune adjacent rose bushes before transplanting. And in order for an adult rose bush to take root better in a new place, after transplanting in the first year, all emerging buds should be removed from it.

What to consider when transplanting roses

The best time to transplant roses is early spring, before the buds open, or October, three weeks before the hard frost. AT spring time roses should be transplanted in the late afternoon, or in cloudy weather.

Before transplanting, overgrown spray roses are cut to 20 cm, climbing varieties- half, and standard ones - by a third. You should also remove weak and broken branches, cut off the leaves from the plant.

When digging up a rose intended for transplantation, it is important to know whether it is a native or grafted bush. In the first case, the root system is located superficially in the ground, in the second case, the taproot goes deep into the soil. Given these features, try to remove the rose bush from the ground as carefully as possible along with the earthy clod. Especially do not worry that some of the roots will still be lost - everything will be restored in a couple of weeks. Roots that are too long need to be trimmed.

A dug up rose can be transferred to a new place by tying the root system in a cloth.

A dug up rose can be transferred to a new place by tying the root system in a cloth so that the clod of earth does not fall apart and the roots are not damaged. Plant the plant directly with the fabric - it will soon rot in the ground.

Pit preparation

Prepare the landing pit begin three weeks before the proposed transplant. The size of the new planting hole should be no less than the hole from which the rose bush was dug. The average diameter of the pit is about 60 cm, the depth is 45 cm. Loosen the bottom of the pit and cover it with soil mixed with compost, and cover it with ordinary soil on top so as not to burn the roots of roses. Water the hole well before planting the rose.

Planting a rose

The grafted rose is placed in the planting hole so that the root neck is five centimeters below ground level. In a self-rooted rose, a clod of earth with roots should be on a par with the surface of the earth. Cover the established plant with garden soil, lightly tamp and water abundantly.

Rose fertilizer

Around the transplanted rose bush, at a distance of 15 cm from the shoots, apply roses intended for roses. mineral fertilizers(at autumn transplant nitrogen fertilizers exclude), loosen the ground again to a depth of no more than 10 cm and water. Mulch the surface of the soil around the rose with well-rotted manure. For the winter, do not forget to spud the bushes and remove all unripe shoots.

In the next three years after the transplant, try not to move the freshly planted roses to a new place anymore - let the plants come to their senses.

Our grandmothers, growing strawberries, or strawberries, as we used to call them, were not particularly worried about mulching. But today this agricultural practice has become fundamental in achieving High Quality berries and reduce crop losses. Some might say it's troublesome. But practice shows that labor costs in this case pay off handsomely. In this article, we invite you to get acquainted with the nine the best materials for mulching garden strawberries.

Mint was used by the Egyptians as far back as 1.5 thousand years BC. It has a strong aroma due to the high content of various essential oils with high volatility. Today, mint is used in medicine, perfumery, cosmetology, winemaking, cooking, ornamental gardening, and the confectionery industry. In this article, we will consider the most interesting varieties of mint, and also talk about the features of growing this plant in open ground.

People began to grow crocuses 500 years before the advent of our era. Although the presence of these flowers in the garden is fleeting, we always look forward to the return of the heralds of spring next year. Crocuses - one of the earliest primroses, whose flowering begins as soon as the snow melts. However, the timing of flowering may vary depending on the species and varieties. This article focuses on the earliest varieties of crocuses that bloom in late March and early April.

Looking at the variety of varieties of tomatoes, it is difficult not to get confused - the choice is very wide today. He sometimes confuses even experienced gardeners! However, it is not so difficult to understand the basics of selecting varieties “for yourself”. The main thing is to understand the peculiarities of culture and start experimenting. One of the easiest tomato groups to grow are varieties and hybrids with limited growth. They have always been appreciated by those gardeners who do not have much time and energy to care for the beds.

Once very popular under the name of indoor nettles, and then forgotten by everyone, coleuses today are one of the most striking garden and indoor plants. They are not in vain considered stars of the first magnitude for those who are looking primarily for non-standard colors.

Salmon backbone baked in Provence herbs is a “supplier” of delicious pieces of fish pulp for a light salad with fresh wild garlic leaves. Mushrooms are lightly fried in olive oil, and then poured with apple cider vinegar. Such mushrooms are tastier than ordinary pickled ones, and they are better suited for baked fish. Ramson and fresh dill coexist perfectly in one salad, emphasizing the flavor of each other. Garlic sharpness of wild garlic will saturate both salmon flesh and mushroom pieces.

Conifer tree or a shrub on the site is always great, and a lot of conifers is even better. Emerald needles of various shades decorate the garden at any time of the year, and phytoncides and essential oils, secreted by plants, not only flavor, but also make the air cleaner. Generally, most zoned adults coniferous plants, are considered very unpretentious trees and shrubs. But young seedlings are much more capricious and require competent care and attention.

Sakura is most often associated with Japan and its culture. Picnics in the shade flowering trees have long been an integral attribute of the meeting of spring in the Land of the Rising Sun. The financial and academic year here begins on April 1, when magnificent cherry blossoms bloom. Therefore, many significant moments in the life of the Japanese pass under the sign of their flowering. But sakura also grows well in cooler regions - certain types can be successfully grown even in Siberia.

It is very interesting for me to analyze how people's tastes and preferences for certain foods have changed over the centuries. What was once considered tasty and traded lost its value over time and, conversely, new fruit crops conquered their markets. Quince has been cultivated for more than 4 thousand years! And even in the 1st century BC. e. about 6 varieties of quince were known and even then the methods of its reproduction and cultivation were described.
