Cultivation methods and precautions of bitter cherry

1. Soil

It is generally best to prepare the soil for growing bitter cherries yourself. It can be made from peat soil, river sand, or loam. This self-prepared soil is breathable, water-conserving and fertile, which is of great help to the growth of plants.

2. Water

Adequate water absorption is necessary during its growth period, and watering twice a week is sufficient. The amount of water for irrigation should be controlled. Although bitter cherries like moisture, they should not be watered too much, which will lead to water accumulation. They should also be prevented and drained in time on rainy days.

3. Nutrients

It is a plant that likes fertilizer. You can choose compound fertilizer for fertilization, and the fertilization time is about two weeks. Sprinkle the compound fertilizer evenly in the soil, then turn it over and stir it. This will allow the plants to fully absorb nutrients, promote the penetration of roots and the growth of branches and buds, and make the plants grow more vigorously.

4. Lighting

Bitter cherry has a great demand for light. Growing it in a sunny environment can make it grow quickly and thrive. Adequate light absorption is of great help to its fruit yield, but it cannot accept strong sunlight. Too strong light will cause the plant to be sunburned.
