Dealing with Barren Trees:

One of the most frustrating ngs that can possibly happen to someone who has slaved hours and hours in growing a fruit tree is the unexplaina barrenn that can sometimes occur when there shd be a plethora of fresh fruit. I know s from experience. My neighbors consider me the gardening guru because of my extensive knowledge. But s is only because gardening has been my passion years and years, and like a sponge I have accumuld so much inmation in my mind. My learning has also come from past experiences with failure. For about 5 years af I started planting fruit trees, I did not see a single fruit my labor. I was nearly ready to give up, until I met who I nk is truly the guru of gardening.

I was in the gardening store, looking some sort of new fertilizer to put my hope in my quest to obtain fruit. I don't know if there was a look of desperation in my eyes, but a kindly old man came up and started speaking with me. He introduced himself as Ralph, and some reason I opened up to him and told him about of my difficulties. I've never been the type to spill my ms on anyone who asks, but Ralph seemed like such a nice fellow that I just cdn't help it. And I'm glad I did, because what he taught me truly helped me to get my fruit trees in gear and start ducing.

I learned that genery, the inability to duce can be caused by a number of factors. Sometimes the tree is simply too young; If your tree is l than four years old, you shdn't exactly expect it to be ducing yet. If it has reached 4 years and you still have seen no sign of fruit, then you shd start to consider other factors that might be causing the barrenn.

If the tree is undergoing any type of wr str (s can be poor drainage, too much wr, or too little wr), then it will have trou growing. If you suspect s is the case, you shd evalu your own wring techniques and compare them with the needs of the tree to see if you are causing wr str. Also always be on the lookout any diseases or pest damages. If your tree is constantly being molested by kinds of little creatures, then you can't expect it to be lively enough to duce fruit.

If your tree blooms but still doesn't duce any fruit, s cd be because of cold temperatures during the bloom. The coldn damaged the flower bud or damaged the baby fruit. Aestheticy the tree may look fine, but the inside cd be damaged beyond any hope of ever seeing fruit. Untunly there isn't much you can do in s case except wait until next year and hope that it doesn't happen again.

If the tree's pollination c has not been fully completed, it cd have trous growing fruit. If you planted different varieties, you may find that the requirements are different than you had originy thought and they were incompati. In s case you need to replant the correct combinations.

Once I evalud the conditions of my tree and everyng that has occurred in its life, I realized that not only had I cross pollind slightly incorrectly, but I was also giving my tree too much wr. Af I fixed these ms, I had learned my lon and I have not had any trou bearing fruit since then.

So if you are struggling with a plant that is not being cooperative, you shd consult an expert gardener. If you can find a gardening mentor like mine that is willing to teach you everyng they know, then you shd be a to get your garden on the right track with no ms.
