Some fertilization tips:
- Nitrogen. Mix this chemical element with the ground and place it in a small depression next to the trunk before the tree starts flowering.
- Potassium. This method fertilizes the land every five years. Potassium falls asleep in a deeply dug ditch.

At the beginning of winter, cut the cuttings with several buds from the crown of pears, tie them up and send them to the cellar / basement for the whole winter.

Slices process garden pitch.
The vaccination should be carried out strictly before the start of sap flow or at the end of it.
