Bear nuts are widely used in the food industry, as they are distinguished by their high energy value. They also contain vitamins and microelements useful for humans. Some experts are sure that the inclusion of such nuts in the diet helps to reduce the risk of a malignant tumor. Apricot kernels have a similar ability.<\/p>\n
Such a tree is most often used:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n- as an ornamental plant for recreation parks and alleys;<\/li>\n
- for landscape design.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Turkish nuts are planted both in groups and singly. This makes it suitable for decorating areas of various sizes. Furniture is made of wood, and it is also used to decorate ceremonial halls and cabins. It is also used to make furniture sets with an unusual appearance. The fact is that the wood has a spectacular light red hue, as well as density and fineness.<\/p>\n
<\/span>Optimal growing conditions<\/span><\/h2>\n![\"Bear](\"https:\/\/rastenievod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/5-1-700x568.jpg\")
<\/p>\n
In the wild, the bear nut, as a rule, grows on forest edges, in forest-steppes, in the mountain and deciduous forests. It can also be found in areas with moist soil, as well as near rivers. Such a tree grows best in calcareous deep soil, and it is highly discouraged to grow it in an area with soil containing a large amount of salt.<\/p>\n
This plant forms thickets grows and develops normally in a shady area, and also belongs to fast-growing crops. There are no forests where only one bear nut is found. It grows only in mixed forests, while its “good neighbors” are: maple, hornbeam, oak, and beech. Easily withstands a drop in air temperature to minus 30 degrees (and even lower).<\/p>\n
Under natural conditions, tree hazel is the most widespread in Belarus, Azerbaijan, Iran, the Balkans, Ukraine, Asia Minor, and Georgia. In Russia, this tree can be found only in the North Caucasus and Transcaucasia.<\/p>\n

Planting of Turkish walnut seedlings in open ground is carried out in the first autumn weeks. At the same time, those seedlings that have a closed root system take root best. In order to prevent a young immature plant from dying, a site with nutritious well-drained soil should be chosen for planting it. If the soil on the site is poor or sandy, then compost or organic humus should be added to it directly during the planting of the seedling. If you are planting several seedlings, then you need to take into account that the minimum distance between them should be 5 m.<\/p>\n
Before you start planting a bear nut in open ground, you need to prepare:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n- In advance, you need to dig a landing pit, which should be half a meter deep, and its size should be 60×60 centimeters.<\/li>\n
- Apply 0.5 kg of mineral fertilizer and 10 kg of humus to the soil.<\/li>\n
- Before starting planting, a large amount of water should be poured into the hole and wait until it is completely absorbed into the soil.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
Immediately before planting a seedling, its side roots should be trimmed. Then its bark system is immersed in a clay mask for a while. Thanks to this procedure, the seedling takes root faster and better in a new place.<\/p>\n
When the plant is planted, it is watered with plenty of water, and then the surface of the trunk circle is covered with a layer of mulch, which has the following advantages:<\/p>\n
\n- thanks to her, the earth remains loose and moist longer;<\/li>\n
- prevents severe freezing or heating of the soil in the root zone;<\/li>\n
- prevents soil erosion;<\/li>\n
- promotes the growth of additional adventitious roots.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
