No harvest: in which places you can't plant fruit trees

Fruit trees are not only a source of tasty and healthy fruits, but also a real decoration of the garden.

However, in order to get a bountiful harvest and enjoy the beauty of the trees, it is important not only to choose the right ones, but also to find a good place for them. This is written by noviydoctor.com.

There are several places where planting fruit trees is not recommended:

1. Low and wetlands:

• Fruit trees do not like stagnant water, as this can lead to root rot and the development of fungal diseases.
• Do not plant trees in places with groundwater close to the surface, as well as in lowlands where water stagnates after rains or snowmelt.

2. Places blown by winds:

• Strong winds can damage tree branches and leaves and make it difficult for flowers to pollinate.
• Plant trees in places protected from the wind: near the house, other buildings, or plant windbreaks made of shrubs.

3. Places with shady conditions:

• Most fruit trees need a lot of sunlight to grow and bear fruit.
• Do not plant trees in the shade of buildings, trees, or other objects.
• Choose open, sunny locations where the trees will receive plenty of light throughout the day.

4. Places with close groundwater:

• As mentioned above, fruit trees do not like stagnant water.
• Do not plant trees in places with groundwater close to the surface to avoid root rot and the development of fungal diseases.

5. Places with close proximity to utilities:

• When planting fruit trees, it is important to consider the location of underground utilities: gas, water, and sewer pipes.
• Do not plant trees in places where they can damage utilities or interfere with their repair and maintenance.

Remember:

• The right planting site is the key to successful growth and fruiting of fruit trees.
• In addition to the above recommendations, consider the soil, climate, and agronomic requirements for a particular tree variety.
• Water, feed, and protect against diseases and pests in a timely manner, and your fruit trees will give you a generous harvest and become a decoration of your land.
