Do you dream of growing lingonberries in your garden?

First of all, take note of the fact that this garden crop is a little capricious.

In order for lingonberries to yield a harvest, it is necessary to pay attention to them at the very first stages of their cultivation, as explained by agronomist Anastasia Kovrizhnykh.

Thus, in particular, according to the expert, it is necessary to prepare suitable soil.

This is worth remembering.

Plant lingonberries next to heather crops. The soil in this area is most acidic and therefore suitable.

If this is not possible, select a separate suitable place for the lingonberries. Pre-slightly acidify it.

Keep in mind that lingonberries like to enjoy the sun during midday. The rest of the day they need the shade of trees.

Are you the owner of sandy soils? Then dig them up with the addition of high-moor peat or coniferous litter. It is desirable that the needles be forest.
