How to plant a tree
Friday, December 3rd, 2010I am a landscaper and have a lot of trees planted. I saw so many trees die within a few years due to the fact that they are wrong to be planted. There are many different opinions on how to plant a tree, but there are many things I personally saw a tree to kill time. The trees with the rope, which can be nipped in the world, the roots are present, they usually grow, there are many things that can go wrong with planting a tree to be. This guide will teach you what you know if your tree does not die.
First Step: digging the hole
Dig a hole about two feet wider than the ball will plant the tree yourself. So when the ball 4 feet wide, dug the hole 6 feet wide. The hole should be deep enough to tip the ball is about one inch above the ground. If the dirt is very hard and looks like, then the hole should be about twice as wide as the ball of the tree, because it will be difficult to switch to the root in the soil more difficult at a young age.
Step Two: Take care of the ball
Once the hole is the proper depth and width, remove the cage of the ball and then roll the shaft must be maintained or be located in the center of the hole and stood up. Around the tree up, someone hold the tree while you throw dirt in the hole on the side as the tree bends, making it stand. Then, the screen on the ball are properly removed. Cut the canvas from as low as you can on the ball. I do not think so, remove them with the cage because the dirt balls often fall apart and making it difficult to plant. Make sure all cables out so it does not choke the tree, as it should cage and burlap to come off the ball to make it not to restrict root growth that grows.The tree grows.
Step Three: Water and fertilize
The tree should be fertilized before it is completely buried. Take a 5-5-5 or a 10-10-10 fertilizer and take a handful of small trees or two handfuls of large trees and disperse it into the hole around the world. Finally, stop to fill the hole with soil. How to fill the hole, pack it with your foot so that the earth is compacted properly and support trees. If the tree is full, the underground water the tree very generous. This helps the fertilizer and to ensure that the tree has enough water to soak, especially when he has a season stuffy or no rain in a few days. It’s how well plant a tree!
