Onderhoudsinstructies
Apricot trees require bright, direct sunlight and moderate temperatures. They prefer a moderate level of humidity and should be watered when the soil partially dries out. Regular pruning is necessary to maintain the tree's shape and health.Oogst
Apricots (Prunus armeniaca) are typically harvested in the late spring to early summer when the fruit is fully colored and slightly soft to the touch. To harvest, gently twist or cut the fruit from the tree to avoid damaging the branches. It is important to handle the fruit carefully to prevent bruising. Apricots should be picked when they are ripe, as they do not continue to ripen significantly after being harvested. Ensure that the fruit is harvested before it becomes overripe and falls to the ground.Bodem
Apricot trees prefer well-draining loam soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH. The soil should be rich in nutrients to support healthy growth. Good drainage is essential to prevent root rot.Kunstmest
Use a balanced fertilizer with an N-P-K ratio of 10-10-10. Fertilize in early spring and again in late summer to support growth and fruit production.Verpotten
Young apricot trees can be repotted every 2-3 years. Choose a larger pot with good drainage and fresh loam soil. Repot in early spring before new growth begins.Voortplanting
Apricot trees can be propagated by seeds, cuttings, or grafting. The best time to propagate is in late winter or early spring. Ensure the cuttings or grafts are taken from healthy, disease-free plants.Snoeien
Prune apricot trees in late winter or early spring before new growth starts. Remove dead or diseased branches and thin out crowded areas to improve air circulation and light penetration.Toxiciteit
Apricot seeds contain amygdalin, which can release cyanide when ingested. While the fruit is safe to eat, the seeds should be avoided by both humans and pets.Aanvullend
Apricot trees benefit from a winter chill period to produce a good fruit set. Ensure they are planted in a location that receives adequate winter cold.BRENG EEN REVOLUTIE TEWEEG IN UW PLANTENVERZORGING
