Care and Maintenance
Watering: Water deeply once a week during dry periods, ensuring the water reaches the root zone.
Fertilizing: Apply a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in early spring, following the package instructions. Avoid over-fertilizing, as this can lead to excessive leafy growth at the expense of fruit production.
Pruning: Prune in late winter to remove dead or crossing branches, and to shape the tree.
Pests and Diseases: Pests/Diseases: Monitor for common apple pests like aphids and diseases like apple scab. Use organic controls if needed.
Pollination: The Golden Treat™ is not self-fertile. Consider planting it alongside other apple trees like the Blushing Delight, Tangy Green, or Tasty Red Apple Trees, which are excellent pollinators.
Planting Care
Soil: Well-draining, loamy soil with a pH between 6.0-7.0 is ideal. Amend soil with compost if necessary.
Location: Choose a sunny spot that receives at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight daily.
Watering: Water thoroughly after planting to settle the soil. Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged.
Spacing: Space trees at least 8-10 feet apart, or plant in a container that's at least 18-24 inches in diameter.
