Grow your Fruit Trees Organically

We all know that maintaining a garden is hard work; but maintaining and growing fruit trees is even a bigger job. So how does one ensure that your fruit trees are bred and grown organically without any chemical intervention? With so many harmful chemicals around us, it is indeed a big task to grow anything organically, let alone fruit trees; however, today farmers or fruit growers and gardeners are becoming more aware about the use of organic materials to grow amazing healthy trees.

Let us have a look at some useful steps in growing organic fruit trees-

1.     Soil- It is important to research the soil as per your zone. Different soils help to grow different fruit trees. So it is important to know the varieties of soil and the places to find them. Certain soils accept many varieties of fruit trees but do a proper research of your area soil before planting any fruit tree.

2.     Prune- If your soil is healthy and can nourish a fruit tree, then prune it before you lay your bulbs. Old soil, dead branches, rotten leaves or fruits, twigs, etc. should be removed from the soil before planting a new fruit tree.

3.     Fertilizer- Applying organic fungicide or insecticidal soap or kaolin clay in the soil creates a natural barrier between fungus and bugs, fruits and leaves. This keeps the soil healthy and helps the fruits to grow organically.

4.     Biodegradable compost- With natural manure available freely, it is one of the most trusted methods to grow organic fruit trees. You can use leftover wet waste, leaves, bark clippings, etc. and leave it for a considerable number of days to see it convert to compost. Add this as a protective layer to your fruit trees to see it bloom.

Consult your garden store to get organic manure or different products to make your fruit tree healthy.
