Every gardener dreams of growing a good harvest of delicious pears on his site. Using the information from our article, it will not be so difficult to do this.

Pear is a very juicy and aromatic fruit that has delighted the inhabitants of the planet for many thousands of years. But on the territory of the Moscow region, culture is not so widespread. The whimsicality and thermophilicity of the tree are to blame for everything. One good thing is that scientists have developed a wide variety of sweet and large varieties of this amazing fruit, which grow without problems in the regions of the middle lane. In the article we will tell you about the best pear varieties for the Moscow region, we will give their detailed description.

Features of crop cultivation in the Moscow region

• This region is located in the middle zone, therefore, it is characterized by a hot summer and cold winter, and between them there are rather humid springs and autumn. Due to the abundant rainfall, additional watering is practically not required;
• this fruit tree is quite thermophilic, and also has a different degree of frost resistance in case of transplantation, depending on the species. That is why the choice of the variety of this fruit for the Moscow region is the most important aspect. After all, not all varieties of pears can boast of the necessary characteristics for excellent performance, as well as long-term growth in this area;
• in the territory of the region, there are sharp changes in temperature. It is difficult enough to grow most of the crop species in these unfavorable weather conditions. Breeders came to the rescue, who bred a number of varieties specifically designed for this climatic zone.

Tip # 1. Planting seedlings should be carried out exclusively in the southwestern or southern part of the garden, due to the increased thermophilicity of the pear tree.

Pear care in the Moscow region

It is recommended to plant trees in areas located in lowlands where rainfall accumulates, as well as ground springs are located nearby.

These fruit trees need to be cared for:

• in winter, the root system of young pear trees should be covered for insulation;
• regularly remove weeds on the near-stem circles of young crops;
• it is also advisable to sow green manures in the garden, for example lupine, after plowing the soil will be enriched;
• it is better to organize the irrigation system according to the type of sprinkling, in which case the water falls onto the tree through a rotating or standing sprayer, which has a large number of tiny holes, all this in the compartment recreates a real rain;
• immediately after irrigation, the soil should be well loosened, so the roots will be enriched with oxygen;
• it is recommended to fertilize the soil in the second year of growth of the fruit tree. Usually, top dressing is applied in the spring or autumn period, however, it is permissible to carry out top dressing throughout the summer. Read also the article: → “When to plant a pear. Planting pears in spring and autumn are the secrets of success. "

Tip # 2.It is not recommended to place "unripe" manure in the hole during planting, as it slowly disintegrates, and this is fraught with damage to the plant root.

Groundbait to increase pear yield

The main fertilizers used in the process of growing fruit in the Moscow region:

Name	Description	Mode of application
Urea	Powder consisting of small crystals, which has a granular form, 45-46% of the composition is nitrogen.	This is one of the best nitrogen fertilizers available. It slightly acidifies the soil. It is necessary to use the drug in the spring during the cultivation of the land. It is used for liquid, dry and foliar dressing.
Superphosphate	This remedy comes in two varieties. Powdered fertilizer consists of 14-19.5% of phosphorus, and granular contains 20-22%.	This substance is recommended to be used since autumn, since phosphorus is an inactive element, it is not readily soluble in water. To get to the root system from the moment of application, it needs a long period of time.
Potassium nitrate.	This product is a nitrogen-potassium fertilizer.	It is used as root and foliar dressing (1-2% solution), used for spraying along with pesticides and stimulants.
Kemira	The fertilizer does not contain chlorine, it contains the following microelements: Mg, S, B, Cu, Fe, Mn, Mo, Zn, Se	Affects root formation, tuber formation, stimulating their growth. The drug is applied to the soil in spring, summer and autumn.
Eco Plant	This mineral fertilizer is universal. A means of long-term action, it contains plant components and a lot of microelements: Mg 6-12%, Ca-9-17%, S 8-16%, including Fe, B, Zn, Cu, Mn, Cr, Mo, Co.	The drug reduces the amount of nitrates in fruits, prevents the accumulation of radionuclides, improves the synthesis of vitamins, saturates with useful minerals, and increases the resistance of crops to unfavorable conditions.

Popular early ripening varieties

• "Lada" is a very common and popular type. Pears ripen somewhere around mid-summer. This variety is not the finest or most pampered. The tree is able to bear fruit well even in a rather cloudy season. The period of onset of fruiting begins at the age of three;
• "Chizhevskaya" - this variety is characterized by its strength. The main advantage of the species is that the fruits do not fall from the tree, and also do not overripe. Harvesting of a fairly stable harvest begins in the middle or end of August;
• "Skorospelku from Michurinsk" - the variety ripens early, in mid-July, and sometimes at the end. These fruit trees have a very neat appearance, they do not take up much space in the garden. Ripe pears are yellow in color;

Popular mid-season varieties

The area where the fruit grows must be protected from cold drafts.

Due to the difficult climatic conditions in the autumn in the middle lane, it is not recommended to plant these varieties.... Among all the varieties available, it is possible to single out the 2 most suitable, as well as fairly early mid-season varieties.

• "Bere Moskovskaya" - the fruits ripen in mid-September;

Self-pollinating, self-fertile crop varieties

Self-fertility of plants enables them to be sufficiently independent of the influence of climatic conditions to achieve an uninterrupted harvest. Self-fertile varieties of fruit take root remarkably in regions with not very favorable weather norms during the flowering period of trees: the absence of bees, heavy rainfall, wind and cold.

Pear Tenderness - a high-yielding winter-hardy variety

Question number 3. Can this crop be pruned in summer?

It is not advisable to carry out the procedure for pruning a pear tree in the summer. Since at this time there is an accumulation of glucose, as well as other useful substances. At the same time, in the process of pruning, young leaves are destroyed, this leads to a loss of nutrients. It is more rational to wait for the autumn season. Read also the article: → "Pruning pears: step-by-step instructions, schemes, terms".

Question number 4. How does the choice of a crop variety affect its yield?

To begin with, each variety has its own characteristics and performance indicators, including the level of yield. Based on the variety of types of pears available today, everyone can choose the fruit to their taste.

Gardeners' mistakes during cultivation

A high yield can be harvested in any climatic zone, subject to the correct selection of fruit varieties, as well as taking into account the observance of the necessary standards of cultivation.

• The most basic mistake lies in the initially incorrectly selected pear variety. That is, it is not intended for cultivation in the climatic zone of the Moscow region.
• Violations of the elementary care of the crop are also possible, as a result - a poor harvest, or even the death of the plant.
• When choosing which pear variety is best suited for planting in the country, gardeners often forget that many of them may need pear pollinator varieties.

Finally, I would like to note that the Moscow region region is located in such a climatic zone, which, in turn, is characterized by a number of features. Unfortunately, they are not suitable for every variety of pears. Therefore, before purchasing young trees of a certain type, you should carefully read whether the weather conditions in the area are optimal for its growth.

After IV Michurin, little was involved in the selection of pear varieties for central Russia and other regions, since gardeners were frightened by the length of the process: pear seedlings often begin to bear fruit in the 12th and even 30th year after sowing. And at the experimental stations, breeders gave preference to the apple tree. Nevertheless, by now, especially over the past 30 years, new promising pear varieties have been created.

This page contains photos, names and descriptions of the best pear varieties for Russian regions.
