When planning in the garden, we should start the proper preparation of the substrate at least a few weeks in advance.Horticultural plants, growing up to several dozen years in one stand, take the nutrients needed for growth only from the place where they develop.That is why it is so important to prepare the substrate before planting the plants.
A well-fertilized, nutrient-rich soil ensures quick adoption of trees or shrubs and intensive growth in the first years.The first and most important step in soil preparation is always pH adjustment. Each species requires a specific pH of the substrate. If the pH is too low, the soil becomes acidic.
As a result, many important elements turn into inaccessible forms and plants are able to take them only to a very narrow extent.After soil liming is applied, macro- and microelements are "activated", making plants start downloading them.For most fruit plants (except acidophilic blueberries and cranberries), the appropriate pH should be close to neutral, between 6 and 7.
