Pruning small fruits

Pruning GrapesGrapes and kiwis have to be pruned since February 1 this species early in the spring to build a huge sap pressure. Prune too late, the plants can start bleeding heavily. The juice will literally spray out and the plant will be unable to close the wound with very adverse consequences. Remove all shoots from the previous year away from the beams have grown up to one to three buttons. From each stump with new shoots - eventually - but a flowering shoot is held. This is from the flower cluster in three to five leaves topped. Arise from the axils of new shoots to be regularly removed. In the grape clusters ripen more quickly if there are no leaves above it.
Blueberry, blueberry or American Blue Berry pruningThis shrubby besdragers require acid soil. Some varieties can reach 3 m tall. Usually a shrub 4 to 5 branches constitution held the first two years will not be shortened. On the leaders is the bush fruit-bearing shoots. The fruits are produced only on annual shoots. This means that from the third year of pruning regularly replace worn shoots needed.
Red and white currants pruningThese shrubs can be grown free-standing support of any kind and can even be used as a hedge. The detached butt is the most common. It will be held 4 to 5 branches, usually 3 onto a trellis branches. The branches are pruned every year. When they reached the required height, they are trimmed back to a strong lateral shoot. At the branches appear side shoots that produce berries. These are (long pruning) little pruning (which many small berries) or cut short (fewer but larger berries). This usually happens in late January. Inside the bush bunches ripen slowly, which can be improved by the tips of the shoots in the summer pruning away. But make sure that that at least six leaves sprout remain.
Blackcurrant pruningThese shrubs are only as free-standing shrubs. The finest fruit clusters are produced at year-old wood (that was formed during the previous year). Three-and four-year branches contribute less rich. Therefore, from the second year replacement pruning. Keep 4 to 5 branches. Replace three old branches often by new basal shoots. Short branches are not partially. You need the formation of branched stems (forks). Pruning too short fruit stalks away. The replacement pruning is black berries in the summer (after harvest). Every year more than enough new basal shoots.
Raspberry pruningThe summer raspberry canes that bear on the ground formed the previous year. Set new plants in autumn in the ground and prune them to knee height. This encourages the formation of new shoots in the spring. Retain up to 8 to 12 shoots per meter. Tie them to a wire (single wire above the other) after the leaves drop. The following year, it shoots at 10 cm above the top wire. After harvesting the canes cut off. After harvesting these will die, and now there are already new shoots that you can repeat the whole cycle.
when pruning raspberries. pruning raspberries
Autumn Raspberry pruningThese raspberry varieties bear fruit after the summer on canes that are formed in the same year. Prune in the autumn after the harvest all canes down. Next spring, 10 to 12 new canes and tie them to. Autumn Raspberries are not as robust plant than summer raspberries.
Japanese wineberry pruningThis is a climber that something like a summer-bearing raspberries can be treated. He bears fruit on branches that formed the previous year. After harvesting the spent canes to die down some. They can be the best to cut and replaced by new basal shoots that have emerged already. You can also plant several meters to climb on a trellis and then prune the parts that die.
When pruning fruit trees. Tips for pruning berry
Pruning GooseberriesGooseberries bear on one-year twigs. In December, all too short and thin branches to remove. Ground shoots are removed if they do not replace branches are cut. For hedges of gooseberries wire is usually to a height of 40 cm. Also close to the ground, hanging twigs and branches are cut away. Sometimes in the summer some air into the dense shrubs will be cut here and there. Always mold affected areas immediately prune when you see them.
Pruning BlackberriesIn this half-climbing fruit trees produce fruits on the one-year (the year formed) basal shoots. New shoots shoot in the summer. Turn them out onto wire arches. Once the shoots grow above the top wire, they are topped at 10 cm above. These main shoots of lateral shoots on which the berries. Cut canes should be pruned away during the spring.Other berries such as loganberries, tay berries, etc.These are species that usually cross product between blackberries and raspberries are created and the characteristics of either a greater or lesser degree. They must also raspberries or blackberries are pruned.

Ornamental Fruit: fruit and ornamental species in the gardens of their careOrnamental Fruit mini mix
Autumn Bouquets and arrangements can be effective with decorative fruits' opgeleukt, especially if the fruit has a pleasing format.
Ornamental Fruit is not new, everyone knows the heavy gourds from the garden outdoors. They are retained, sometimes for months in a decorative bowl. But a man wants something new, thought a Dutch grower. He developed the "Decoration Mix ', which consists of a wooden box with eight plastic trays containing seven different decorative fruits. The fruits with a diameter of 2 to 5 cm are remarkably green, red, black, striped or hairy. Very decorative, such as filling in a tall vase, without water course, or as part of a Biedermeier.


The shelf life of fruit is fine. They remain for several months, provided they are dry and stored outside the refrigerator. Then they will slowly dry out and gradually lose their color. It is also important to know that the fruit unfit for consumption. Mix the Decoration consists of the following products: Solanum annuum 'Balloon', Solanum nigrum 'Huckleberry', Solanum aethiopicum, Cucumis hirsutus, dipsaceus Cucumis, Cucumis africanus Cucumis and mycrocarpus. The mix is ​​available from July to early December.

TypesThere are probably more than five hundred of pumpkins different cultivars. They are divided into five main groups. Summer squash / zucchini, fall pumpkins, winter squash ordinary pumpkins and ornamental gourds.Because this product on the auction still changing rapidly and there are many other codes are marketed under no clear view of the overall product.Cucurbita maxima at auction and C.pepo C.siceraria distinguished. For Cucumis VBN are no separate codes.Cucurbita species is on the auction among the group of ornamental fruit.Among them also besides Cucurbita Capsicum, Actinidia, Citrus, Malus, Punica, Pyrus, Solanum, and Zea.
Care tipsOrnamental Fruit for months to save, if it is fully ripe. In dried form, the fruit very long shelf life. Fall and winter squash can be stored for several months. The harvesting and transportation must be handled with extreme caution if the pumpkins are a little beschadigingentje comes as the pumpkin rot.

Plums in the garden: species, pruning, planting, fertilizing, harvesting, diseases

Plum tree (Prunus)
Species:Altesse Simple, Anna Späth, Avalon, Belle de Thuin, Bleue de Belgique, Early Laxton, Elena, Cape plum, Mirabelle de Metz, Opal, Prune the Prince, Queen Victoria, Reine Claude, Ruth Barley Etter, Sainte Catherine, St. Katrien, Valor , Violetta, Wignon ...
Prunus ---> - Belongs to the Rosaceae subfamily with the stone fruits. The plum tree is a close relative of our apricot.The plum varieties are mainly derived from the Asian region and Japan, China and Southern Russia.
Classification of types: Ordinary plums, Japanese plums, Mirabelle, sugar plums (Reine plums), or myrobalan plum, plum hurt.
Plums are monoecious early bloomers that are pollinated by insects. Another plum tree that was planted in the neighborhood, always ensuring a better fruit set. Note simultaneous dilations at planting, you put together the right kinds. Warm dry days leading to good fertilization relative humidity and freezing temperatures.
Method of planting:Stem low, half-standard, tall.
Rootstock:

    Low stemmed varieties are bred and half tribe of Saint Julien A.
    The tall varieties are then grafted on the type of Brompton.
Location:Well tolerate sun to partial shade. Well-drained soils are recommended with a neutral pH. Can still slightly alkaline. Too high pH values ​​often lead to deficiencies in the soil such as manganese and iron deficiency.
The best planting occurred about November to March. November Plantations provide a better success rate of regrowth.
Distances:

    Tribal Layer: up to 4 meters away from.
    Half Tribes: up to 6 meters spaced.
    Strains high: up to 10 meters spacing.
Construction of the tree:This tree is usually placed at four branches constitution, as it usually has such enormous dimensions. They must then be distributed around the trunk. (Not from a point on the trunk of view). -> Inevitably leads to tearing of fruiting!
At first we put the steep batches from a wider until we "crown" to obtain. This will make light and air into the top left, which later will be of great importance for the fruit. Weaker stems are bent, if they have not had to stand flat.
Central leader or tribe is in stone fruit cut back to fourth.By the severe pruning back the outward buds will grow stronger. (The correct pruning branches readily accessible than a length of 1 to 2 meters).
Note competing modes near the central leader, they are irrevocably pruned to 10 cm high and then tied to the normal central leader.
Pruning:Plum Boots can 1 to 2 times per year to be pruned, depending on the purpose. The best time for this is from from April to September. Note: pruning in the winter periods can lead to death!
When pruning a slight let's stump are also sometimes called a targeted rate.
We especially pruning suckers, broken branches, dead branches, inward growing branches, storage and steep branches.
We then reduce to low hanging fruit in wood.
Try always possible to disinfect tools to work with a well set and knife, or saw or shears. That the wounds as small as possible. The tearing of the bark is otherwise inevitable and can provide appropriate diseases or fungi. Wound mounting media such as cold or hot grafting wax is vital. Reine Victoria is particularly sensitive. (Galena Disease).
Summer allows for pruning:Here we pay attention mainly to strong growth rugscheuten not lignified, these cuts we are completely gone. Like carrot storage should be as low as possible removed. Beware of root damage, otherwise they lead to more basal shoots.
Neglected trees can be pruned, with a new building years.
What we should notice is the pruning of fruit on year old wood, this should never happen all at once, otherwise the trunk will be bald. Bare branches leading to sensitization of strong sunshine!
A simple lighting makes all the way for stronger pruning new shoots, especially on the backs of the remaining branches.
Fertilization:Organic fertilizers can be given in the spring, beautiful shoots and fruits to develop. A healthy shoot length of 20 cm per year is normal.If no regular fertilization is used, we obtain a weaker growth with smaller fruits as a result.Mulching can, but one must always keep plenty of space and distance from the rootstock.
Harvest:

    Make sure the fruit stem to pluck it, otherwise they dry out much faster and moldy.
    Just pick the ripe fruit, unripe plums will rot.
    Note that you do not branch with leaves or pieces afplukt, as these contain the fruit bags for offspring.

Pears, plums and cherries

Pears, plums and cherries

pears
Pears are known only as cultivated plants. They are closely related to apples, but they have more warmth and rooted deeper than apple trees. Therefore, well-drained, deep loose soil conditions for growing. Pears can be managed very well. Some pear varieties are familiar with the phenomenon years turn ': the one year they spend a lot more revenue than other years. This applies particularly to older varieties such as' Peer Jutte. There are hand and pears. "Supertrevoux 'is an early pear (harvest in August), big and juicy with a red blush. 'Beurre Hardy' is harvested in September, rust brown, large, tasty and very perishable. 'Bonne Louise d'Avranches' ​​ready for picking in late September, quite small, succulent, green with a red blush, and some time save costs.

Good pears are 'Gieser Wildeman' and 'Saint Rémy' (both red boiling). Harvest in October. Most pears bloom in April-May

Pears as pollinators
Pears also are the best fruits and different varieties can pollinate each other, but also by self-pollination the fruit is formed. That certainly never so always ask when you buy expert advice. Good combinations are:

1 'Supertrevoux' 2
2 "Conference 1 2 3 4
3 'Doyenne du Comice' April 2
4 'Gieser Wildeman' April 2

plums

 
Almost all plums are excellent pollinators themselves. So you have a tree to get enough fruit. But also ask advice from plums, for the pollination quality varies by race. Plums usually need more space. It can be quite large trees (of course depending on which is grafted to the rootstock).
