The publication with detailed explanations of processing methods of landing of ornamental shrubs and trees in the winter.
Quite large decorative trees and bushes can be put not only in the spring or in the autumn, but also in the winter
Quite large decorative and bushes it is possible to put not only in the spring or in the autumn, but also in the winter. At the desire of readers we will stop on this subject in more detail. It will be a question of plants in containers. And so, these plants having well developed closed root system (ZKS), densely penetrating all earth lump, usually replace in a garden during the whole season.
Upon purchase of a plant release an earth lump from a pot and be convinced that the root system is well developed and healthy. Unfortunately, unfair suppliers can sell plants as container, actually dig out them of the soil of nursery or from a usual garden, and even in the wood, and push in a pot, chopping off thus almost all roots. If, checking a plant, you will see that it practically has no roots, refuse purchase – anything from this won’t grow any more.
Plants with open root system (Construction Department) usually land in soil in the spring or in the autumn. In the spring put after the soil thawed, and before expansion of leaves, and in the autumn – in a leaf fall.
If saplings with Construction Department were dried, they should be presoaked in water and to carry out to a scrap. Before landing the damaged part of roots cut, and too long roots shorten. In proportion a scrap of roots cut off also sapling escapes – on a third or even half.
That the plant well got accustomed and could eat normally, the size of a landing hole do much more an earth lump that then to fill a hole with the fertile earth. On a bottom of a hole it is necessary to fill a hill a fertile layer of earth and to hammer a basic stake for further fastening to it the planted tree. The height of a hill is defined by practical consideration – it is necessary to calculate so that the root neck of a sapling appeared on 2 – 3 cm higher than soil level. It is possible to use a primitive reference point of level of the soil – to put on the earth through the hole middle a lath.
On a hill the sapling is put, thus it is necessary to straighten and direct its roots carefully down. The fertile earth in a hole fill up with layers, carefully trampling down each layer a foot. After landing surely adhere a plant trunk to that the wind didn’t shake it. Then a sapling plentifully water and cover from the sun. That the plant got accustomed quicker, it is good to carry out krone spraying. By the way, then it both sheet, and will have high-grade flower kidneys. The Prizhivayemost of a sapling and formation of roots at it can be made active, adding in irrigation water and water for spraying bioregulators of growth of plants (epin, zircon, kornevin, etc.).
During the period from November to February the majority of wood plants are in a condition of natural rest. By the way, very important moment: late autumn and during a winter time at transportation and landing of large saplings the risk of their damage is much less (in warmer season such happens quite often), they take roots much more successfully. The big size of an earth lump round roots a guarantee of that root system remains to more high-grade, than at spring and autumn landing.
Planting trees or bushes during a winter time, it is necessary to prepare in advance landing holes and a fertile soil for them zasypki. The earth lump of the prepared saplings is fixed by wooden boards, a small metal grid or a sacking that the earth wasn’t showered from plant roots during its transportation to a landing place.
Hardy trees and bushes with the frozen lump of the earth during winter time put at temperature not below – 15 degrees of a frost. After planting of trees and bushes with the frozen lump them whenever possible water, that roots were humidified, and the soil settled. At winter landing the plant too needs to be fixed, having adhered it to a support. In the spring correct an inclination of saplings, regularly water them and spray krone. That plants got accustomed after winter landing better, during the next season them several times feed up.
