Before growing a variety of pink apple trees Bryanskoye on the site, you need to choose the right place for planting, so that the tree grows well, develops and bears fruit. Better if it is the northeast or northwest side of the site, which has a flat surface. A fertile, nutrient-rich soil with a neutral reaction is suitable here. The place should be well open, well lit by the sun all day long. Groundwater should lie here as deep as possible, no higher than 2 meters. Also, the place where the plant will be grown must be protected from drafts. It is necessary to prepare the soil in advance. To do this, you should add organic and mineral fertilizers to it. Manure, phosphates and potash preparations are perfect fertilizers.
You need to dig everything up, mix and remove unnecessary debris and grass, and then start preparing the planting pit. The planting hole should be deep enough, about 1 m wide and deep. After the hole has been dug, it should stand for about 2-3 months. The optimal time for planting seedlings will be autumn or spring. It is better to plant the plant in the spring, before the buds begin to bloom.
When planting an apple tree in autumn, you should leave a couple of months before the onset of cold weather, so that the tree has time to adapt. The soil mixed with fertilizers is introduced into the planting pit. Then you need to make a small mound. A seedling is placed on it and the entire root system is carefully straightened. Then fall asleep with the remaining earth. It is necessary to compact the soil, and also to control that the root collar is just above the ground level.
After that, a small circle is formed around the trunk, so that in the future the water does not spread during irrigation. Water the seedling abundantly using at least two buckets of water. Next, it is better to lay out a sufficiently thick layer of mulch about 10 cm. Sawdust or other materials are perfect as mulch.Mulching the trunk circle will help protect the plant from severe cold in the future, and will also retain a large amount of moisture in the hot dry summer. If you plant several copies of apple trees, then the distance between them should be observed. In addition to mulch, crops such as onions, cucumbers, and tomatoes can also be planted under the crown.

Throughout the first year of the tree's life, a thick layer of mulch should be maintained at all times. In the summer season, in the presence of a large amount of rain, you should loosen the soil under the crown, dig it up - only shallowly so as not to damage the roots. Apple trees need abundant watering during the first year. In the second year, the number of waterings is reduced to about 4. However, watering should be of sufficient quality, at the rate of 6 buckets per tree.
Siderata are also planted between trees, which will serve as an excellent fertilizer and mulch layer.
Like any tree, an apple tree needs timely pruning in order to form the correct compact crown, as well as to increase the amount of harvest. Damaged, dry, frozen branches should also be removed.
Insect pests
Despite its resistance to scab, the Bryansk aloe apple tree can be affected by various insect pests. To protect the tree from them, it is necessary to construct special traps.
Experienced gardeners use bags for this, which are tied to the trunk of a tree and treated with glue made from rosin and castor oil.
