Seedlings in Ukraine

Every owner dreams of a beautiful healthy and well-groomed garden. With the advent of autumn, when it's time to buy seedlings for your garden, a lot of interesting, one might even say, extremely important questions arise:

1. Where to buy seedlings in Ukraine?
2. What are seedling nurseries?
3. How to choose quality seedlings?

Where could I buy?

Even in ancient times, people transplanted plants from the wild into their garden, and cultivated them as best they could. Although many of the seedlings still did not take root, since the root system or other parts of the plant were often damaged during the transplantation process.

But the processes of development of the agricultural sector also do not stand still, and in our time, the so-called " nurseries " of seedlings have appeared. These are specially organized enterprises-farms that grow seedlings of various types in large volumes, as well as carry out research and selection work. Nurseries are the safest place to buy quality planting material.

The online trading platform Agrobiz.net has collected for you the best offers from Ukrainian nurseries, from which you can buy seedlings of fruit trees and more.

How to choose?

If the choice of a nursery depends on your personal preferences, positive or negative customer reviews or on the location of the enterprise, then when choosing the seedlings themselves, you should follow more specific recommendations. But some of them should pay special attention:

1. The tree must have a so-called " graft ". To distinguish a grafted seedling from an ungrafted one, you just need to look at the trunk of the tree, just above the rhizome. If there is a bend or a slight curvature on it, then such a tree can be bought - it is grafted.
2. Next we move to the root system. If the roots are elastic, alive, well developed , this is, of course, a good sign. But if you find any thickenings or knots on the roots, then you should not buy such a seedling - these are symptoms of root cancer. You should also pay attention to the remains of the earth on the roots. Ideally, the roots should be bare, but a slight amount of earth is allowed.
3. It is better to buy fruit tree seedlings in official nurseries , and not in the markets. You can, of course, order goods from the nursery by mail, but as the saying goes, "it's better to see once than hear seven times." Thus, you will protect yourself from possible confusion with tree varieties, and moreover, you will get a healthy plant.
4. The best time to buy seedlings is still autumn . This is due to a large selection of trees, in comparison with the spring period.
5. “The older the tree, the better” is a very big myth. It is best to choose a biennial plant .
6. Choose seedlings that no longer have leaves , but live buds are present .
7. If you have already decided on a variety, then be sure to find out if it suits you according to the “ district ” feature.

We hope that these tips will help you buy healthy and high-quality seedlings, and in a few years they will delight you with a huge harvest.
