Transplanting trees and shrubs

Transplantation is always a painful process for a plant, but often it is inevitable or even necessary. Often it happens that a tree or shrub grows poorly in some place, even if it is observed -

1. In a prepared pit or trench, the seedlings are slanted inclined.

2. Fill the roots with earth, compact and water

Transplanting trees and shrubs

1. Loosen the ground around the tree or shrub with forks, but not too deep to damage the roots located in the upper soil layer.

2. Carefully dig the roots around, guiding the bayonet bayonet obliquely so as not to overcut the lateral branches.

3. Remove the root from the ground and lay it on a prepared piece of cloth or tarpaulin.

4. Deliver the excavated plant to the

landing pit prepared on the new site and plant, observing all the rules. After planting, prune the fruit tree or shrub

with the basic rules of care for them. The reason for this may be an individual plant intolerance to this part of the soil, a possible proximity or, on the contrary, the remoteness of groundwater and the associated overmoistening of the root layers of the soil or a lack of moisture. The plant may not like lighting its place of growth during the day, proximity to any structures and objects, or likely competition from other plants, which the horticulturist may not even suspect. Whatever it was, all these factors, as well as changing the site plan, the need for construction and a host of other reasons can be the basis for a tree or shrub transplant.

To avoid damage to the plant as a result of this process, a number of transplant conditions must be observed. The plant transplantation of

is better performed in the early spring, when the plant has not yet emerged from the state of rest and has not entered the stage of active vegetation. The sprawling branches of the plant are tied up or wrapped in canvas. This will prevent the breaking of branches, free space, and the branches will not interfere with the careful execution of all subsequent operations. The main condition of transplantation implies the most careful relationship with the root system of the plant. We must try to do everything so as not to damage the roots, which will inevitably cause a significant weakening of the plant. First, the ground around the tree or shrub is needed to loosen to facilitate excavation of the root system. A shovel should make a vertical outline of the plant at a distance corresponding to the projection of the crown on the soil. It should be taken into account that the diameter of the root system, i.e., the

area. Planting conifers and evergreens

1. Dig a spacious pit, dimensions that are twice the size of the earth's coma on the rhizome. The ground selected from the pit is ground, mixed with sand, compost, organic fertilizers, pulverized silica.

2. The bottom of the pit is loosened and poured a bit of sand for drainage and part of the resulting earth mixture. Place the tree vertically on the bottom of the pit, orienting it with the most beautiful side on the viewed space.

3. Fill the pit with earth, slightly compact it, but do not rammer it.

4. Drive the support rod at an angle to the trunk against the main direction of the winds, strengthen the

and tie the tree to the support with a loop of soft materials in the form of a figure-eight. Form a watering circle, abundantly water the seedling and moisturize it well for the first year

of the occurrence of roots in the ground, on average half the diameter of the crown. After this, using the intended line as the inner edge, carefully gently dig the plant from all sides, making a trench 30 cm wide and deep into the bayonet bayonet, cutting off the protruding roots. Then stick a shovel under the root lump, directing the spade bayonet obliquely in relation to the root system, so as not to overcut the lateral branches. Then gently take out the tree or shrubbery with the clod of earth, in which the root system of the plant is enclosed, lay on a prepared piece of tarpaulin, cloth or burlap. Process the roots of the plant, cutting off all the damaged or dead areas, wrap the earthen cloth in a cloth and transfer or transport it on a wheelbarrow to a new landing site. You can not wrap the root system, but simply drag the dug plant on the tarpaulin. Lower the plant in a pre-prepared landing pit, you can leave the roots in the fabric and do everything the same as when planting trees and shrubs. After the end of planting, cut the fruit tree or shrubbery, observing all the rules for pruning this type of crop, so that the size of the crown corresponds to the capabilities of the injured root system.
