Start by selecting a large enough pot, preferably at least 50-60 liters in capacity, to allow the root system to grow adequately.
Make sure the pot has drainage holes to avoid waterlogging.
Use well-drained soil rich in organic matter, such as a mixture of fruit potting soil and compost.
2. Choice of plant:
Purchase a black mulberry plant from a reputable nursery or an experienced grower.
Make sure the plant is healthy, with green leaves and free of signs of disease or pests.
3. Positioning and light:
Find a sunny location for your black mulberry tree, where it will receive at least 6 to 8 hours of direct sunlight per day.
Make sure the pot is easily movable, so you can move it inside or out depending on the season.
4. Watering and Fertilizing:
Keep the soil moist, but not overly wet. Water regularly, but make sure the pot has good drainage to avoid water accumulation.
Fertilize the tree with a balanced fruit plant fertilizer during the spring and summer growing seasons.
5. Pruning and care:
Light pruning to remove damaged or diseased branches and to promote a compact shape.
Protect the tree from severe cold in winter by taking it to a protected location or covering the pot with insulating fabric.
