How to care for Kalamata olives
Care Instructions: To ensure the optimal growth and productivity of your Kalamata olive tree, follow these care guidelines:
- Planting: Select a sunny location with well-drained soil. Dig a hole twice the width of the root ball and the same depth. Amend the soil with compost if needed.
- Watering: Water regularly during the first year to establish a strong root system. Once established, Kalamata olive trees are drought-tolerant and require minimal watering.
- Pruning: Prune in late winter or early spring to shape the tree and remove any dead or diseased branches. Regular pruning encourages better air circulation and sunlight penetration.
- Fertilizing: Fertilize in early spring with a balanced, slow-release fertilizer. Avoid over-fertilizing to maintain fruit quality.
- Pest Control: Monitor for common pests such as olive fruit flies and scale. Use organic or chemical controls as needed to protect your tree and its fruit.
