Sometimes it happens that after doing a lot of work and intense labor with your tree you get bareness in the end. It is most frustrating when after doing all the proper care you get unexplainable bareness from the tree instead of lots of fruit. I will let my readers know my own personal experience. All my neighbors always thought me as a Gardening expert because of my deep knowledge about any gardening related issue. I love gardening and I have detailed knowledge of every thing about gardening. My mind is fully stuffed with all the gardening related issues only because this is my passion. I have some good and bad experiences! Once I planted a fruit tree with full passion and care but I was unable to get any fruit for five years and it frustrated me a lot. I was so much depressed that I was ready to give up until I came across the true Guru of Gardening.
After trying many things I went gardening store to look for any fertilizer that could help my tree getting fruit. From no where, an old man came and started speaking to me. His name was Ralph and I was so desperate that after few minutes I started telling him about my problem and frustration. I am a conserve guy and I never speak of my problems in front of any one but Ralph was such a sweet and nice guy that I could not resist my self telling my problems to him. I consider my self lucky that I took him as friend and told him every thing because what he told me really helped my tree getting fruits.
Let me share what I learned from that experience. Never expect your tree to produce before time. Remember if your tree is less than four years old, you shouldn’t exactly expect it to be producing yet. But if 4 years have passed by and you still are not getting fruits, then you should consider other factors.
Under watering and over watering can also is the cause of your tree bareness. I mean you have to avoid water stress by evaluating how much water your tree exactly needs and how much are you giving it. Always keep looking for pests and diseases as they can be really harmful for your tree and can prevent it from giving fruits. You should not expect any fruit if your tree is constantly being molested by different kinds of creatures.
Sometimes your tree blooms at its best but the blooms fade out without giving any fruit. This is mostly because of cold temperature during bloom. Coldness is really harmful for small baby fruits or buds. No doubt the blooms look so beautiful from outside even in coldness, but so low temperature means the buds are damaged from inside. There is no solution to this problem except for waiting until the next year and hoping that it won’t happen again.
Next thing to consider is tree pollination process. If the pollination of tree does not occur completely, it will restrict the tree from growing any fruit. If you planted different arrays of trees, you may find that the necessities are different than you had originally thought and they were mismatched. In this case you need to replant the correct combinations and it can be really tedious task to do.
I then took hours to think about every thing that has occurred in my tree’s life and what I came up with was the fact that I was overwatering my plant and I also cross pollinated it slightly incorrect. I fixed these problems immediately and got delicious and healthy fruits in no time.
So an expert gardener can help you most, if your tree is showing signs of bareness. I wish you get a mentor just like mine so that you can easily judge all the major mistakes you are doing. If it happens then I assure you that you will be able to get your garden on the right track with no problems.
