METHOD FOR PLANTING AND GROWING OF "BOLE PYRAMID" FRUIT TREES Russian patent published in 1998 - IPC

FIELD: plantation of early maturing intensive gardens. SUBSTANCE: method involves row planting of seedlings to define blocks of three crossing trees inclined toward block center. Seedlings are positioned so that their root system is within containers made from materials with prolonged degradation time. Method further involves arranging seedlings so as to form pyramid construction with scalene triangle in base, with base apex of each subsequent pyramid being offset by 180 deg; binding branched seedlings together at height of 35 plus and minus 5 cm from soil surface by means of flexible binder made from photodegradable film; during the second and third years, providing interlacing of bud pairs germinated at sites spaced by distance of 30-35 cm from place where central conductors of blocks are crossed so that biological connection is provided. EFFECT: increased intensity and enhanced reliability of garden by improved fastening of trees in soil and improved light and air conditions combined with high density of planting. 2 dwg
