Ginkgo planting tips

1. Because ginkgo trees grow very slowly, we need to be very cautious when choosing seedlings. We must choose seedlings with relatively thick and straight trunks, and preferably with well-developed root systems. Only such seedlings will have a high survival rate.

2. We need to prepare the land before planting ginkgo trees. The distance between each row should be between 3-4 meters, and holes should be dug about 2-3 meters away from each tree.

3. After planting the ginkgo tree, you need to water it again so that the soil will have a certain degree of moisture. The ginkgo tree will only grow faster in a place with sufficient water.

4. There is no doubt that the ginkgo tree is a sun-loving plant and needs sufficient light during its growth, so we must choose a suitable place to plant it.
