The optimal times for planting or transplanting the Uspenskoe apple tree are the times during which the herbaceous ones are at rest:

the beginning of the spring season, before the opening of the buds and the active movement of the juice.
the end of the autumn season, after leaf fall.

For a certain region, the disembarkation time differs:

for warmer regions, it is possible to plant in the spring or autumn seasons.
for colder regions, the optimal time will be the spring season, the root system of the planting material will master and take root in the ground before the onset of the winter season.

Cultivation

The Uspenskoe apple tree prefers places with the necessary amount of sunlight, without the presence of drafts and cold winds, but with rich loose soil.

This apple variety prefers lighted areas.

Note! It is important to know where the groundwater is located. They should be located at least two hundred centimeters from the ground surface and be sufficiently mobile. This variety does not like the stagnation of fluid in the root system.

Planting of planting material is carried out at the optimal time and in pre-prepared planting holes with dimensions not less than seventy centimeters deep and eighty centimeters wide. Distinctive features of the variety require a certain space between the planting holes. The space between the apple trees should not be less than three hundred centimeters, and between the rows not less than five hundred centimeters.

nitrogen.
potash.
phosphoric.
complex mineral fertilizing.
