1-With a good planning; seedlings which are suitable rootstocks on which varieties demanded by the market are grafted should be obtained.
2-Suitable fertilization programme and plant spacing should be determined as per soil analysis results.
3-Support system (wire-stake) should be fitted before or after plantation while establishing a dwarf apple garden and each seedling should be given a 1.5m-stake.
4-Since roots are superficial and crunchy in dwarf apple gardens; soil should not be tilted with tools or machinery. It is important to prevent weed growth by means of herbicides or mulching:
5-Old pruning habits should be given up and pruning should be performed as per technical staff recommendations (branch thinning, end cutting, angle widening and tying should be done instead of shape and yield pruning)
6-Irrigation should be performed through drip irrigation or sprinkling method.
7-Lines should always be in north-south direction.
