Fruit mulberry planting results after several years

Fruit mulberry refers to mulberry trees that can be used for both fruit and leaves. This plant likes warm and humid environments, and is cold-resistant, drought-resistant, and barren-resistant, but not waterlogged. It can be planted from December to March of the following year. The main producing areas in my country include Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Sichuan, Shaanxi and other places.

Fruit mulberry grows very fast. If properly maintained, it can bear fruit in the second year after planting, but the amount of fruit will be relatively small. Later, as the plant grows, the amount of fruit will gradually increase, and the yield per mu can reach about 3,000-10,000 jin.

2. Although fruit mulberry has a high adaptability, if you want it to bloom and bear fruit normally, you still need to supplement it with sufficient nutrients and do not let the soil become too poor.
