What are the precautions for seedling planting?

Planting with saplings is a common way to plant trees in most gardens and roads under the line, but what matters need to be paid attention to when planting saplings?

What are the points for attention in planting saplings?

1. Soil preparation and fertilization

Ploughing and digging holes will be needed before planting trees, and then fertilize them. Among them, farm organic fertilizer must be composted and fermented at high temperature and fully mature before it can be used as fertilizer.

two。 Planting time

Tree planting has its particularity, which is best in late autumn and early spring. Pay close attention to the overcast and rainy period. Late autumn refers to the period from defoliation to soil freezing, which can also be planted or combined with other measures to reduce moisture. Tree species that are relatively warm in winter and local cold-tolerant trees are suitable to be planted in autumn. Trees that are cold in winter and trees that are not cold-tolerant in the local area should be planted in spring, so that the survival rate of planting will be reduced, and tree species with strong cold resistance can also be planted in winter.

3. Tree pit depth

The depth and size of the pit should be determined according to the situation of the saplings, and the shallow and small ones should be deepened, and the loose soil should be padded at the bottom of the pit to make a conical mound, which is convenient for the root system to spread around, ensure that the root system extends smoothly around, and prevent the pit root.

4. Seedling planting

In general planting, special attention should be paid to making the original soil print flush with or slightly below the ground level. trees should not be less than 10cm below the original soil print, and shrubs and clumps should be flush with the original soil imprint; tree species with soil balls should not be lower than 5cm. The depth of planting seedlings is not absolute, and it is determined after comprehensive consideration of seedling types, soil texture, groundwater level, topography and other factors.

5. Post-planting management

After planting, the saplings should be strengthened and watered according to the situation. Generally tall seedlings should be supported. In addition, some saplings should build a shade after planting, grass rope or flax around the pole, conditional local spray, in order to reduce the evaporation of tree water.

In addition, the saplings had better be pruned in advance before planting, and special attention should be paid to moisturizing and ventilation in the process of packaging and transportation to ensure the survival of the seedlings.
