Cultivate the Cherry Orchard for Better Yields
Guidance on cherry orchard cultivation compares it to corn and apples. Regular cultivation through midsummer with a straw mulch helps moisture retention, while some advise stopping after bearing age. An inter crop is acceptable if it requires steady tillage, followed by a cover crop for winter protection.
Prepare Land for Orchard Planting
On cleared timber and sod land the guide advises growing a cultivated crop for one year before orchard planting. Ground should be prepared thoroughly and deeply plowed to ensure good host growth and to allow proper tending after trees are set.
Orchard Care and Tree Training Notes
The note discusses orchard practices including tree replacement, bee influence on apples, cross pollination of Bartlett pears, root coverage for warmth, open center peach training, and grass removal near young apple trees before freezing. It ends with an ad for a furnished rental at 226 Amherst St Apt.
