• Sowing Time: Plant your Mulberry tree in early spring or during the monsoon season to provide optimal growing conditions.
• Climate: Mulberry trees thrive in warm, temperate to tropical climates. They require full sun exposure for the best fruit production.
• Soil Requirements: Use well-draining soil enriched with organic compost. The ideal soil pH for Mulberry trees is slightly acidic to neutral (pH 5.5-7.0).
• Watering: Water regularly, especially during the growing season, to keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Mulching can help retain moisture and regulate soil temperature.
• Fertilization: Apply a balanced fertilizer (NPK 10-10-10) in early spring and again in mid-summer. Supplement with micronutrients like iron and magnesium for optimal growth.
• Pruning: Prune dead or diseased branches and shape the tree to allow better air circulation and sunlight penetration. Pruning should be done in late winter or early spring.
• Pest Control: Monitor for common pests such as aphids and whiteflies. Use organic insecticides or neem oil to manage infestations.
• Fruiting Time: Mulberry trees typically start bearing fruit within 2-3 years. The fruiting period is usually from late spring to early summer.
• Plant Height and Fruit Size: Mature Mulberry trees can reach a height of 20-30 feet. The fruits are small, sweet, and juicy, ranging from 1-2 inches in length.
