Feeding cherries in spring, summer, autumn
Features of cherries
Stone fruits are grown for their fruits. They are tasty, healthy, low-calorie, suitable for preparation, and ripen early. Cultivated cherry is a fast growing woody plant. In warm climates, trees live up to 100 years and grow up to 12-15 m in height.
The type of root system is horizontal. There is only one tap root, it is formed at 1-2 years of life, and later branches. Cherries have a straight, tall trunk, covered with light bark, oval or blunt heart-shaped fruits (true drupes) covered with red, red-orange or light yellow skin.
For decades, domestic breeders have been breeding low-growing varieties. The dominant gene for tallness is suppressed using low- and medium-sized domestic rootstocks for propagation:
Dwarf cherry varieties attract summer residents and farmers with their ease of care, productivity, and quick adaptation to frequently changing weather conditions. Compact trees do not need a large area to grow.
VSL-2 is considered the best low-growing (dwarf) rootstock. The height of the tree does not exceed 2.5-3 m. There are no basal shoots. The root system is resistant to low temperatures, fruiting begins early. Summer residents solve the problem of growth using their own methods. Cherry cuttings are grafted onto winter-hardy bush cherries.

Planting cherries in spring in central Russia
It is not recommended to plant all stone fruit trees in risky farming areas in winter, especially such a heat-loving crop as cherries. Planting and caring for it in the Moscow region in the spring is most favorable, since it eliminates the possibility of seedlings freezing in the unpredictable winter of the middle zone.
Dates for planting cherries in central Russia
The main rule is that the seedling must be placed in a permanent place before the leaves appear, but at the same time protected from return frosts, which can happen in the Moscow region even in early June. Approximate planting date in the middle zone: end of April.
How to choose cherry seedlings for the Moscow region
Many nurseries in central Russia offer their clients the best winter-hardy varieties of cherries adapted to local conditions. Therefore, you should never buy seedlings at spontaneous markets, where there is a high risk of being mis-sorted, where you come across seedlings for the southern regions that freeze out in the first winter.
During a visual inspection, you need to pay attention to the following points:
- The bark of the seedling should not be wrinkled, as this is a sign that the tree is too dry and may need rehabilitation measures.
- There should be no growths or suspicious spots on the roots. The size of the root system should approximately correspond to the size of the crown.
- Young 1-2 year old plants adapt more easily to transplantation and new living conditions, so you should give them preference over older specimens.
- The seedling must be well formed: the main conductor must not be bent, and future skeletal branches must not depart from the trunk at an acute angle.
- In the crown area there should be no damage to the buds, much less the main branches.
Where to plant: which place to choose
To avoid the question in the future whether cherries bear fruit in the Moscow region, it is necessary to plant the young tree in the right place, taking into account several important nuances when choosing it:
- The area in the middle zone must be protected from cold winds. The southern wall of a house or fence, a hedge or a natural forest screen will help the cherry tree survive the drying gusts of winter snowstorms.
- The groundwater level should not be less than 2 m, otherwise in the future the rapidly growing root system of the cherry tree will suffer from excessive moisture, and the tree is unlikely to be saved.
- At the site where cherries are planted in the middle zone, there should be no natural or artificial depressions in the relief: depressions, holes, ditches in which spring waters could accumulate, which could become a possible reason for the root collar of the tree to become wet and the bark on the trunk to completely or partially damp out.
Advice! If groundwater is located close, then you can make a raised flowerbed for cherries.
This method will not only remove the root system from the area of excessive moisture, but will also ensure better heating of the soil in the spring.
Neighborhood Respect
Cherry is the best partner for sweet cherries from fruit trees. When planted together, you can get good yields from both crops. It is not recommended to plant pear, apple and plum trees next to cherries, as they have a depressing effect on each other. A good combination is obtained with black elderberry and columnar cherry plum. Elderberry will protect the cherry from aphids, and cherry plum will not take up much space and will not be a competition.
Attention! It is not recommended to plant nightshade crops and young seedlings of any fruit trees under cherries - cherries have a depressing effect on them.
At what distance
It is necessary to know exactly the type of rootstock of the purchased seedling, so as not to violate the rules for planting cherries. In the Moscow region, it is preferable to plant trees on weak-growing rootstocks, since they take up less space in the garden and begin to bear fruit earlier. In this case, a distance of 3-4 m is left between neighboring trees, and for tall forms this figure is increased to 5-7 m.
Required soil composition
The best type of soil for planting cherries in the Moscow region is chernozem, sandy loam and medium loam. You can’t plant cherries on acidic soils, bare sand and solid clay. The soil on the site should be fertile, moisture-absorbing and loose, with a pH in the range of 5.5-6. In case of soil acidification, which can be reliably confirmed by a special examination, liming is used. This event is recommended to be held every 3 years.
Preparing the hole for planting
Following the rules of cherry agricultural technology, in the Moscow region you should prepare a planting hole in the fall. Its depth should be at least 50 cm, and its size should be 70x70 cm. Over the winter and spring, the soil will settle and the tree will take its optimal position. The hole does not need to be left empty - it is filled with fertile soil with the addition of fertilizers. When the snow melts in the spring, it will not be filled to the brim with water and will be ready for planting cherries earlier.
How and what to fertilize before planting
A well-filled pit is the key to uninterrupted power supply to the tree and its full growth in the first year of life in a new place. The composition of fertile soil includes:
- humus or compost - ½ part of the total volume;
- 150 g superphosphate;
- liter jar of ash or 50 g of mineral potassium fertilizer that does not contain chlorine;
- on heavy soils, it is justified to add the required amount of sand to the planting soil, and on sandy soils - clay.
Attention! The root collar of the seedling should not be buried, since it is necessary to plant cherries correctly in the middle zone, slightly raising them above the soil surface by no more than 3-4 cm.
Winter-hardy cherry varieties for the Moscow region
The above varieties can winter well. However, there are the most frost-resistant varieties of cherries for the Moscow region, which will be discussed in this section.
And the way
A tree 4 meters high with a wide crown. The variety belongs to the early ones, but in the Moscow region it ripens only in the last days of June. It requires pollinators, such as Revna. During the pouring process, the fruits gradually turn from red to black. Weight 5.5 g. The largest specimen can weigh 9 grams. Disadvantages:
increased demands on soil and cracking from rain.
But it withstands frosts well and is well transported. This cherry variety is frost-resistant. Productivity from 25 kg per tree.
Bryansk pink
An excellent variety that has proven itself well in the central part of the country. The tree grows to an average height of 2 to 3 meters in height. Fruiting begins in the 5th year after planting in a permanent place of growth.
Productivity from 1 tree – 20 kg. The variety is not susceptible to moniliosis, coccomycosis, or clasterosporiosis.
Revna
The tree grows very quickly and has an average flowering time. The height of an adult plant reaches 4 meters. The branches are located vertically in relation to the trunk. Berry weight is from 4 to 6 grams. The shape is round and slightly flattened. The peel is dark in color, rich red. At maturity it becomes almost black in color. Taste characteristics are determined to be high at 4.8 points. From one planted tree you get from 15 kg.
Rules of care
In order for cherries to bear fruit abundantly, they need to be provided with high-quality care. It must certainly be comprehensive.
Watering
If the soil is excessively dry, crop yields decrease. If the soil is over-watered, the berries may crack and rot. Therefore, it is important to choose the correct watering regime. It depends on the composition of the soil, the frequency of precipitation and the capabilities of the summer resident.
During the season, cherries require at least 3-4 waterings. Moistening the soil twice should be combined with the use of complex fertilizers.
Top dressing
Young plants do not need to be fed. They have enough nutrients that were used during planting. In subsequent years, it is necessary to feed the soil in spring and autumn. In the spring, cherries need nitrogen fertilizers, which activate growth. In autumn, compositions containing potassium and phosphorus are used.
Crown formation
To create a beautiful and durable crown, formative pruning is performed. With the help of the correct procedure, it is possible to obtain a bountiful harvest and increase the crop’s resistance to diseases.
Sanitary pruning
This type of pruning is aimed at removing dead, infected and broken branches. They must be burned. Unscheduled pruning can also be carried out. It is aimed at removing branches that cannot support the mass of berries during a large harvest.
Preparing for winter
Even frost-resistant varieties need to be prepared for winter. To do this, the tree trunk circle should be mulched in October. To do this, use fallen leaves and peat. Tree trunks are covered and tied with spruce branches. This will provide additional protection for the crop from rodents.
To improve the wintering of adult plants, senication is performed. The manipulation should be carried out in the first half of August. To do this, it is recommended to take 1.5 kilograms of superphosphate and mix it with a bucket of water. Leave the solution for 2 days, stirring occasionally.
Set aside the finished liquid. After this, add 25 grams of bone glue mixed with 5 liters of water. Treat trees with the prepared mixture. It is recommended to carry out the manipulation in the evening. This is done in dry and windless weather. Thanks to this, it is possible to ensure the ripening of young shoots and make them more resistant to frost.
Features of caring for columnar cherries
Columnar cherries have a special shape. The trunk reaches 3-4 meters in height. At the same time, the fruit branches are small in size and form a cylindrical shape. This culture has many advantages:
- For 1 tree only 0.5 square meters is required.
- The culture is resistant to temperature fluctuations, which are typical for the Moscow region.
- Brings the first harvest quickly. Fruits can be obtained in the first year after planting.
- The berries have an excellent taste and tolerate transportation well.
- Has excellent decorative properties.
- It is easy to care for. It only includes sanitary pruning.
Columnar cherries should be planted with other varieties that are characterized by the same flowering phase. Thanks to this, it will be possible to achieve cross-pollination and get an excellent harvest.
Growing a tree is easy. For proper development, cherries should be loosened, watered, and treated against pests in a timely manner. In spring, it is recommended to spray the tree with a fungicide.
Columnar cherries - varieties for the Moscow region
Some summer residents prefer exclusively columnar cherries. Among them there are different colors: pink, red, black.

Advantages and disadvantages
In low-growing cherry varieties with a small crown, flower buds suffer less from critically low temperatures in winter, but can freeze in the spring. They bloom a little earlier than tall trees.
Advantages of dwarf cherries:
The disadvantage is the high yield of low-growing varieties. Due to the heavy load, the fruits become smaller. This affects the market value. The tree is kept small and large-fruited by planned regulating pruning.
Yellow cherries - the best varieties for growing in the Moscow region
Yellow, golden cherries are no longer a curiosity. It is grown everywhere, including in the Moscow region. There are several varieties of yellow cherries to choose from. Now this is not uncommon.

Drogana yellow
Also an old cherry variety with late ripening, suitable for the Moscow region. It is distinguished by large, juicy, sweet fruits. When planting a tree in the Moscow region, it is worth protecting it from bad weather, in particular from frost, since plantings are sensitive to low temperatures.
There is a susceptibility to gray rot, as well as cherry fly damage. Aelita and Donchanka are suitable pollinators.
Diseases and pests
Most cherry varieties are resistant to fungal infections. But despite this, such diseases develop more often than others:
- When infected with clasterosporiosis, black spots appear on the leaves. Then the affected tissues die. As a result, the foliage falls and the fruits dry out.
- With the development of cocomycosis, small reddish dots appear on the foliage, gradually merging into large spots. The disease develops in cold, rainy weather. The leaf blades turn brown and fall off.
- Trees infected with moniliosis have leaves and shoots that dry out, and the fruits rot. The infection quickly takes over the entire crown of the tree. The infection especially often affects plants in lowlands with high humidity and dense planting.
To combat fungal infections, products containing copper are used. The drug “Horus” effectively destroys the fungus. A solution is prepared from 30 g of the substance and 10 liters of water. Treatment is carried out 3-4 times with an interval of 5-7 days. Before treatment, all infected parts of the plant are cut off and destroyed.
Advice!
To improve the effect, add laundry soap to the solution and foam it. When applying, try to get it on the back side of the sheet plates.
The following insects are most dangerous to cherries:
- leaf roller;
- cherry fly;
- black aphid;
- cherry pipe maker.
Insects infect plant tissues and feed on their sap. As a result of infection, the tree weakens and the yield decreases. Insecticides are used to kill parasites. Treatment with Karbofos or Aktara gives a good effect. If the number of pests is small, they are destroyed using folk remedies. The trees are sprayed with an infusion of tobacco crumbs with the addition of laundry soap.
Cherry varieties for the Moscow region - reviews on cultivation
Alevtina Viktorovna, Moscow region. For growing here in the Moscow region, I chose the early ripening cherry hybrid Nochka. It ripens in average terms. I like that fruiting occurs already in the 2nd year after planting the seedlings. And you don’t have to wait 5 or even 6 years, as with many varieties of cherries. The first harvest was very pleasing with large fruits of a deep ruby hue. The pulp is dense. Despite the fact that the tree is not tall, the yield is good, up to 20 kg. I recommend.
Olesya Igorevna, Bronnitsy Two years ago we planted Iput cherries. Excellent quality harvest. For some reason, there was a slight sourness in the taste, although it was not indicated in the description of the variety. I liked it even better. The results are very tasty. I especially recommend this variety of cherries for the Moscow region.
Vladimir Aleksandrovich, Moscow region For a long time we were looking for which variety of cherries was best to plant in the Moscow region. We needed it to be short so that it would not take up much space on the site, as there are other plantings. We chose the Krasnaya Gorka variety. In my opinion, this is an ideal option: it ripens early, does not get sick, the berries are tasty, and have an unusual yellow and blush color for cherries. An excellent low-growing, self-fertile variety for the Moscow region.
Reviews
Elena, 36 years old:
After planting the cherry seedling, I did not believe for a long time that it would take root and bear fruit. But despite the doubts, the tree took root and turned green. The next year, flowers appeared on it, and then berries. Now the tree is already large and bears fruit regularly.
Maria, 44 years old:
I have several cherry trees in my garden. They regularly produce good harvests. All branches are strewn with bright red berries. For the winter, I cover them with agrofibre for reliability, although the varieties have good frost resistance.
For regular fruiting in the conditions of the Moscow region, only varieties with good frost resistance or adapted for cultivation in the Central region are planted. By creating favorable conditions and choosing the right variety, gardeners receive a rich harvest.
