If you are faced by task to multiply fir-tree, solve what way to prefer. The simplest – reproduction by change of young growth. The way is more difficult, more costly on time and labor-consuming – by means of planting of seeds. As advantages of the first – speed. Basic reason why it is worth choosing the second – opportunity to grow up at once many escapes.
It is required to you
- - Either saplings, or seeds;
- - soil;
- - fertilizers;
- - water;
- - shovel;
- - watering can.
Instruction
1. Arm with shovel and go to the forest if you are going to make multiple copies fir-tree change of young growth. Choose low escapes (to 0.4 m) at which it was formed not to exchange of 3-4 tiers of branches. One more important factor to which it is worth paying attention – lack of affected areas on trunk bark. Strong and healthy escapes should be dug out accurately. For this purpose outline pristvolny circle with a diameter about 35-40 cm outlining each following circle, gradually bury shovel, you will not feel yet that you can take out fir-tree with lump of the earth and not damage the root system of young tree.
2. Plant the dug-out saplings on the site in previously prepared holes. On bottom it is recommended to place vegetable garbage (sawdust, shaving, branches of foliferous trees), to add the rerotting manure and double superphosphate. Do not forget to stamp carefully the soil around fir-tree, to water and zamulchirovat any pochvopokrovny material.
3. Prepare in the fall the ripened cones. Let's them lie down 1-2 months, and then take from them seeds. Sow them on seedling approximately in February, but be careful, they quite small therefore it is better to mix them with clean bank sand. As the earth take mix of peat, humus and the earth for houseplants. Before landing of seeds surely water the earth. After landing cover seedling with polyethylene film and put to the lukewarm place. Periodically open boxes for airing. When shoots arise, the film should be removed, and to rearrange seedling on the lit windowsill. Remember that the fir-tree does not love direct sunshine and your trees costs in the middle of the day slightly pritenyat.
4. Dive seedling when it reaches 7-10 cm. More preferable to these purposes to choose ceramic pots in which the drain hole for exit of excess moisture is below provided. In week after change feed up any humic fertilizer. The further agrotechnology of care for trees consists in fertilizing, waterings and loosening. Replace the fir-trees to the constant place in the fall, previously having dug holes and having fertilized them the rerotting manure.
