Green pistachio nuts are now sold in every store, but some gardeners think about independent cultivation of this delicacy. This plant prefers a hot and dry climate, because his homeland is Iran and Iraq. In Russia, pistachio trees grow in open soil It is very difficult due to the mismatch of weather conditions, although even a newcomer is available landing and care. Therefore, some enthusiastic gardeners make it at home.

Plant Description

The pistachio tree is a multi-decrepid plant and refers to the family of the summam. His homeland is considered to be the regions with a hot and dry climate in the southern part of Europe, Asia and Africa: the desert, semi-desert, stony foothills and lowland. Also these trees are found on the American continent. There they grow in Mexico and in the southern part of the United States.

Usually pistachios are growing with single trees and very rarely form a palpal.

This feature is caused by the unusual structure of the root system. It consists of two levels. The bottom goes deep into the ground (up to 15 m) and extracts moisture in the arid period. Upper is used during long precipitation. It covers rOCK With a radius of up to 25 m. Thanks to such a root system, the plants are located apart from each other at a considerable distance and not in contact with the crowns.

The height of pistachio trees in a natural habitat reaches 10 meters, although in separate regions they look like bushes. They form a wide, low planted, a spherical crown. Leaves up to 20 cm long, dissected. Pistachios - downtar plants. They form fruit only on female copies, although the trees of both species are required for their formation. With the right organization of plantation from 11 plants, only 1 will be male.

The flowering period falls for April and May. At this time, the branches appear on the branches of yellow-red-colored inflorescences. In August or September, fruits are formed in their place - busty. They have a thin skin, which, when ripening, bursts and is slightly screwed.

Growing conditions

In Russia, the cultivation of pistachio in the garden is possible only in the southern regions, where the summer is dry and hot weather. This plant is very difficult to transfers a cold and long winter. But there is always the opportunity to grow a mini-version of the tree at home on the windowsill.

For landing prepare sandy soil with acidity in the range from 7 to 7.8 pH. The ideal option It will become salty and rocky soil. When growing a pistachio, it is recommended to apply and regularly alternate feeding.

How to germina

To obtain a seedling from the fetal pistachios, the copies purchased in the store will not be suitable. The fruit must be closed and without any processing. It is quite difficult to find a suitable nut, but if you manage, then a tree will grow out of it, the fruits of which can be seen after 10 years.

Step-by-step instructions, how to plant a pistachio from the fire:

1. 1. The appropriate fruit is soaked at 12 o'clock in any growth stimulator.
2. 2. on the bottom of deep flower pot Put the drainage layer and fill with suitable soil.
3. 3. Anterhalted fire is planted in a pot on a depth of 4 cm and pour themselves.
4. 4. Cover the container Loutrasil and put in a warm room for germination.

Soon sprouts appear from nuts. They are distinguished by increased fragility, so they grow a strong seedling from them difficult. In addition, the novice gardener is difficult to establish where the man's, and where is the women's plant. Therefore, the independent cultivation of pistachio trees from the fetus is very rarely practiced.

Sedna landing

It is much easier to buy ready-made pistachio seedlings in a nursery. At the same time, for pollination and the tie of fruits, at least 2 plants should be planted: male and female. When placing trees in the garden, a plot with sandy soil is chosen, where the pit is digging with the sides of at least 1 m. At the same time, between the plants, the distance is 3 m so that they do not interfere with each other's root system. Fruiting in this case begins in 6-8 years.

Purchased seedlings carefully examine and remove damaged areas, drinking sections with extractive coal or wood ash. Then the plant is placed in the pit and fall asleep from all sides of the earth. The soil is tightly tamped and wipered abundantly.

No special care for young trees is not required. For good growth, weeds are smelled around plants. In the first year, the pistachio does not fertilize. Subsequently, special feeding, alternating potash, nitrogen and phosphoric fertilizers contribute periodically. Watering plants very rarely. There are enough two irrigations per month, 1.5-2 liters of water per plant. With the onset of autumn irrigation stop at all. From the second year of life from irregularities refuse.
