There are only a few considerations when learning how to plant fruit trees. However, to grow fruit trees are a different matter altogether. This is especially since it would depend on the area where you want to plant it.

Materials you'll need for this task include gypsum, shovel, manure, compost, sulfur, lime and a garden hose. You also need liquid fertilizer, rototiller and mulch.

To plant fruit trees, a temperate climate is essential. Aside from weather conditions, soil considerations are also important. Fruit trees can grow from loam soils to sandy and clay soils. However, for areas with high prairie winds like Oklahoma in the US, there are dangers of warping, breaking and twisting of these fruit trees.

Step 1 - Choose a location to plant fruit trees. These should be under full sunlight but still being sheltered from the wind. If there's no shelter from the wind available, you can make your own wind break from soil mounding or by building a fence surrounding the location.

Step 2 - Every several months, test the soil before you plant fruit trees. Through soil testing, you'll know the type of soil structure and pH levels so that you can improve them if they're not suitable for growing fruit trees.

Step 3 - Buy soil amendments basing from the results of your soil test. These may include aerate clay soils to gypsum and organic amendments for clay to sandy soils. You can add manure or compost to improve soil nutrient content or powdered lime to raise the pH levels of the soil. Another option is powdered sulfur as it can lower pH levels.

Step 4 - Break the ground up using a rototiller. Then, spread the amendments on top of the soil with a 3-inch depth. Afterwards, mix the amendments in the soil by running your rototiller on the soil again. Don't just amend on the planting hole of your tree; it is best to amend the entire plot of land to encourage your tree to spreading its roots even beyond your planting hole.

Step 5 - Choose fruit tree types that are hearty to your location. Some considerations include peaches, cherries, pears and apples among others.

Step 6 - You planting hole should be slightly wider yet it shouldn't be bigger than the actual tree. The root ball of the tree should be placed inside the hole and then cover it with soil.

Step 7 - Use a liquid fertilizer to fertilize your fruit tree. It should be low in nitrogen like a 0-10-10 type. Just look at the package instructions. Nitrogen can promote leaf development and phosphorous as well as potassium can encourage blooms along with fruit growth.

Step 8 - You can mulch around the tree base for water retention. Water your fruit trees with an inch of water daily for a span of 10 days.

Step 9 - Thin down your fruit into the largest, healthiest pieces throughout their development. This encourages your tree to give out all its energy to bearing the best fruit.

Step 10 - Plan you cycle of periodic spraying. This can keep your fruit tree healthy and free from bugs as well as diseases.
