About breeding viburnum
Wild-growing viburnum usually spread poultry, spreading it seeds at different distances. In addition, there is vegetative:
- root offspring;
- vaccinations;
- cuttings (both green and apparent);
- champions;
- powder on stump.
Much less frequent Kalina Red breeds the division of the bush.
Seed seeds can be either in autumn or in spring. If you want to sow them in the spring, then it is necessary to stratification (for some time hold them at temperatures from +3 to + 5 ° C, for example in the refrigerator). Fill out in April the container with the substrate (sand and peat in equal shares). Then place stratified seeds into it in a depth of three centimeters. In the future, seedlings need nuts, watering, loosening substrate, feeding.
Steps for reproduction horizontal gag:
- choose a few young branches and cut them down "on the stump";
- shorter to the next spring annual shoots and decompose them into the grooves (their depth of 6 centimeters), the emphasis there;
- when shoots from the wokeered kidneys will grow in height of 15 centimeters, pour out the grooves of fertile land so that only the tops of young shoots remain;
- over the summer, spend two more or three extracts so that the root system will grow;
- in the autumn, the branch can be separated from the bush, and then separate the root shoots.
Green cuttings need to be chopped in June so that there are 3 intercouxes, 10 centimeters long. Leafs should be shortened in half. The rooting is carried out in mini-greenhouses, in a substrate consisting of peat and river sand. The cuttings are plugged into this soil by 3 centimeters. Every day spend 3 watering cuttings, then after 14 days the first roots will already grow.
Slicing of weathered cuttings should be done with the onset of spring. Their length is about 20 centimeters. Then they must be put in the package and send to the refrigerator. When April comes, the lower parts of the cuttings treat the stimulants of the root formation ("heteroacexin" or "root"). In solution, they should stand the day. After washing, such cuttings are sent to the soil (rich in nutrients and loose), having under the tilt. The soil is necessarily kept in a moistened state.
Less often determine the Kalina root piglet, which is formed quite abundantly. When its height is 20 centimeters, spend three extracts for the summer season to form more roots. Then in the fall (and it is possible in the spring of next year) Separate the piglets and transfer to the right place.
Planting viburnum ordinary
A bush can be placed near the wicket, benches or gazebos in the garden. You can use several viburnum bushes when forming a living bleeding on the site. Caline and for a parisade near a high-rise building. The bush will grow on the poor soils, but it will be better to show itself on wet fertile loams, chernozema. It is advisable to take a bright place to Kalina, but it will not be offended by the half. Typically, the landing is made in the fall, but you can and in the spring, only to have time before the kidney swells on the shoots. So, dig a hole (on average 50 centimeters wide). At the bottom of the river sand (half of the big bucket) and the compost (you can overwhelmed dung), its quantity is a whole bucket, ash (300 grams). Mix everything. If the soil is non-fermented, then make fertilizer (for example, nitroposka). Make the placement of the roots of the seedling in the pit so that the root neck is to be flushed with the surface of the soil. It is allowed to buoy the neck, but not more than four centimeters. Then you wake carefully a place near a seedling and generously water with water. And the last stage is mulching, which will help keep moisture in the ground. Yes, and weeds will be much less. A number of specialists recommend shorter shoots. But you can not do this.
Recommendations for the care of Kalina ordinary
There will be no special trouble with viburnum. In the arid time it should be abundantly watered, and if it rains from summer in the summer, the soil will be moistened and without your effort. Sometimes weeding and loosening are carried out, and in the fall, the replenishment of the priority circle, mulching with a compost (in the amount of one bucket). About once every three years, in the fall under the bush, make four kilograms of compost, superphosphate (50 grams), potassium salt (30 grams), lime (200 grams). The yield will increase, if in the spring you are adopting a viburnum kist ammonium Selitra (30 grams). In June, spend watering by adding the mineral complex to the water. To get a good bush, in it, when forming it is necessary to lay six or seven branches of different ages. Every year, you look at the bush, remove damaged, chilly, old branches, as well as those that grow incorrectly and thicken the central part of the bush.
And now we will list the possible pests of Kalina Ordinary:

- kalopian leaf (eats the entire leaf pulp, leaving only veins);
- sawmakers (feed on a juicy pulp of leaves, penetrate the shoots, as a result of which they dry);
- kalinovy \u200b\u200bblooms (their caterpillars are nibbled buds and flowers, so there is a little full berry);
- caterpillars of rosal and kalin leaflets (brown up the edges of the leaves, then twist them in the "roll" and envelop the web);
- green paddle porenitsa (blossoms floral ovary);
- lilac Bringerh (his caterpillars also spoil the edges of the leaves).
To combat pests, it is better to get better comprehensively, using the folk methods (infusions of Zhgigi Pepper, Garlic, Grass Chisthela, Luke Herry, Yarrow Grass), Biottoxybacillin biological preparations and chemicals. In the spring (before the leaves are promoted) according to the green cone, experts are recommended to make spraying to destroy the wintering phases of harmful insects. Then there are two more processing in front of flowering using "carbofos", "chlorofos" and "Copper". Instead of these funds, you can make the processing of "into-virus". After flowering, chemicals are no longer used.

Kalina is rarely sick, malievable dew or spotty can harm her. To prevent the development of malievable dew in early spring, when the kidneys are not swollen on Kalina, spray it with copper vitriol (it is enough to take 150 grams of this powder to 5 liters of water). In the future, there are several treatments of the bush or a colloid sulfur.
Mature fruits in early varieties can be collected in September, late - in October. Just cut with scissors every brush at its base and put whole clusses in the bucket. You can leave the brushes of viburnum in the garden on the table for several days, covering them with a grid (so that the birds do not boke). Then the berries are slightly plated, their taste quality improves significantly. We offer a simple recipe for delicious and useful jelly. Clean the fruits twice skip through the juicer. In the liter of the resulting juice, pour 800 grams of sugar. Patiently stir the composition so that all sugar is dissolved.
