Choosing the optimal time for fertilization is crucial for healthy pear tree growth. The base fertilizer should ideally be applied after the harvest of pears and before the trees start to sprout in the following spring. However, it's even more beneficial to apply fertilizer when the soil moisture is good, typically between September and October. This ensures better nutrient absorption and promotes strong root development.
For the base fertilizer, high-quality organic fertilizer should make up 60% to 70% of the total annual fertilizer application. It’s recommended to use about 50 kilograms of quality organic fertilizer per pear tree. This not only improves soil structure but also provides a slow release of nutrients that support long-term tree health.
When applying the base fertilizer, the method should be flexible depending on the tree's root system. You can dig open trenches around the tree, or create a circular ditch around the base. Alternatively, you can dig individual holes between the trees or along the rows. It’s a good practice to alternate these methods each year to ensure even distribution of nutrients throughout the root zone. To avoid waste and maximize effectiveness, the fertilizer should be placed at a depth of 30 to 50 centimeters. In dry conditions, it’s important to water the area after fertilizing to help the nutrients dissolve and reach the roots more efficiently.
