    Two years ago, a young Chizhovskaya pear tree grew as usual. But last year it suddenly gave very large growths up to 1,2-1,5 m, moreover, these shoots began to spiral around the tree. I'm confused, what happened?

      Most importantly, do not be afraid, nothing terrible happened. It is not a disease or a mutation. It's just that the excessive growth of the shoots and the process of the formation of annulus along their entire length, as is usually the case with a pear, made the shoots heavier, and they began to take such a strange position in the form of a spiral. In addition, sometimes in a pear, spiraling is associated with periodic changes in lighting conditions in the crown of a tree.

    How to get a good harvest of cherries and pears? I regularly feed, carry out protective measures. In the spring, the trees bloom profusely, and in the summer they have only a dozen fruits ...

      - If you have good agricultural practices (timely fertilize, water and fight pests and diseases), then the reason for poor fruit set is the lack of pollinators for plants of cultivated varieties. Cherries and pears of most varieties are self-fertile and do not set fruit when pollinated by their pollen. Plant other varieties near these trees, and if there is no space, graft other varieties into the crowns of the plants grown.

    I grew a pear. The fruits are beautiful and juicy, but for some reason they don’t taste like grass-on-grass! I tried to fertilize with potassium - there is no result. Maybe someone can send me the inoculation material for a guaranteed payment? I am a man of respectable age, so it is unlikely that I will have time to grow a new tree with sweet fruits from scratch. If you have any ideas how to solve this problem differently, I will be glad to any help!

    We planted an orchard on our property. Many fruit trees are already yielding, but one adult pear tree has never even bloomed! And the variety was chosen in the nursery zoned, and we take care of the garden as expected ...

    Our neighbor, an experienced gardener, said that if a pear tree is more than 5 years old, and there is no flowering, then unfavorable factors are acting on it. Perhaps, in summer, watering is insufficient, the plant has enough strength to grow, but they no longer remain for flowering and fruiting. In the hot season, pears should be watered every week, 50 liters of water per adult tree.
    You should not get carried away with nitrogen fertilizers, since an excess of nitrogen causes an increase in green mass, but not the laying of flower buds, in addition, the pear becomes vulnerable to diseases.

    Regular pruning helps encourage flowering: removing upright or skeletal branches will ensure good airflow and more light. A pear tree needs at least 6 hours of sunlight every day. Perhaps it is blocked by a wall, a high fence or neighboring mature trees and there is not enough light.

    If the groundwater level is below standard in the area, then the pear will not bloom until it grows a root 6-8 m long to reach the aquifer.

    I grew a pear. Fruits up to 300 g, beautiful. Late, reach after removal, very fragrant, juicy. But there is one big BUT. They absolutely do not taste like: grass grass - no acid, no sweetness. I tried to fertilize with potassium - the result is zero. Maybe there will be a kind soul and send me vaccination material for a fee?
    Given my venerable age, it is unlikely that I will have time to grow a new pear with sweet fruits ...
