During planting of the Izumitelnoe apple variety, fertilizers should be used, which are usually used when planting other fruit trees. The same rule applies to tree care.

Experienced gardeners recommend planting this particular variety in the fall, purchasing ready-made seedlings with a very good and branched root system.

The soil should be well-drained and loose. Loams work best. It is on such soil that the tree will bear fruit best. If you are planting several trees, then you must maintain a distance of more than 2 m between plantings. After the tree is planted, it is necessary to water it abundantly.

After the winter period, you should immediately begin to form the crown of the tree. Here it is necessary to shorten all the shoots, and this will need to be done for 5 years, while the tree is not yet bearing fruit.

If your soil is rich in nutrients on your site, then you do not need to additionally feed the plant, or rather, you will need to do this no more than once a year, using a mixture of humus, trace elements, urea and calcium salts. Further, fertilizers are not applied throughout the season.
