Old pears

Among the garden inhabitants, a pear is a famous long-lived.
But for fruiting it matures late. Sometimes there is a dozen years. Therefore, do not rush to say goodbye to the old tree, like my windows plastic Zhulebino that I decorated and gave them a new kind, and the tree has a chance for life - there are ways to return it to a fruitful life. Listen to the Soviets.
Sharp knife and solid hand
I have a very old garden. There are pears in it who remember my great-grandmother. Of course, it was not enough to go from them until I decided to correct the situation. Neighbors advised to cut down the root. I tried. But then three years fought with a pig. One tree left stump and instilled a new grade in the young, but fruiting until waited. Now I understand that there is direct addiction between the crown and roots. No crown - a significant part of the roots die. Where to take the fruits? But those pears, which I kept shtamb shortened and skeletal branches, have begun to live a new life. That's how I do it. From two to four strong skeletal branches cut off half of 10-15 cm. The remaining branches employ the roots and stimulate the growth of a dormant, they soon acquire fatliquors young shoots, which form the future crown. It only remains to choose the best shoots and next spring boldly to make a new vaccine.

Nuances of vaccination
Methods of vaccinations are different, but everything learns to practice. So she suggested me that it is best to do it for a bark or to spend a simple copulation with the tongue. I take a cut from 8-10 kidneys and necessarily a central. From "in the first year, the leading kidney gives a strong escape, and the rest are lateral.
In addition, all wounds will perfectly overgrow, and young shoots are formed strong - they are not terrible even the strong gusts of the wind.
But for this it is necessary to observe the uncertain rule: the lead and dive should have as little difference in the thickness.
If you decide to instill with the old Dedovsky way in the split, keep in mind: under the weight of the leaves and fruits, the grafted branches are easily laid out from old branches. This is another reason for vaccinating only on young, actively growing wood.

Secrets of fast harvest
In the future, every year I make vaccinations on other branches. What does it give? After three years later, I collect a good crop pear. And in the case of removal of the entire stan, it would have to wait for everything 8-10 years, as when planting a new tree.
Rewrite makes a few varieties. It gives better pollination and more stable harvest.
The only condition. In one tree we vaccinate the autumn, and on the other - winter varieties.
Yes, remember; The success of vaccinations largely depends on the purity of the vaccination material, a sharp knife and a confident hand. So not one holy pots to sculpt. Try! And you will succeed.

Cut on health
It is believed that the pear should be planted in the designated place once and for all. My experience does not confirm this. I transplanted our pear variety Chizhevskaya. And it became even better - and blooms abundantly, and fruits. In addition, at the time when she was still a saplress, her neighbor goat rang. I remember, thought: Well, all, the end of the trick! An, no! After this adventure, she just looked. So do not be afraid to cut a pear, it will not be worse.
By the way, our pear is fruitless without pollinator, as other pears are still young. I landed the seedlings of various varieties - Bergamot, Lado, Winter Redobokaya (last year she fruited for the first time). And they are all different: from sweet to tart. And how blooming! Especially I am proud of my pear of a variety of redoboca. It is frost resistant - withstands forty-portus frosts. She has very large fruits and when the harvest has already been removed from many fruit trees, there are still hanging on it, red-green pears are banging. Charm, and only! And jams, jams, compotes from pear - this is such a yummy.
The essential advantage of pears in front of other fruit is their high yield. The fruits are almost 3 times more than an apple tree.
But for this, of course, care is needed. Pears love moisture. I miss not often, but abundantly. Place for planting is chosen solar, on well-drained and fertile soil. Feeding with dung or complex fertilizers during the dissolution of the kidneys and flowering. During the season, I will bring ash and be sure to make a whitewash in the spring and autumn. I add clay and manure into the lime. It is true, however, to process leaf backs, but in the spring of them on any fruit trees are fully. While the beetles are a little collecting manually, and when it is broken, then you have to spray. But I love my pears very much and do not regret them or the strength or time.
