Jujube tree planting method

1. Prepare the soil

Before planting jujube trees, you must choose suitable soil. It is suitable to plant them in a loose, fertile place with good drainage and air permeability. Loosen the soil in advance, clean up the tree roots and weeds, and apply decomposed base fertilizer to the soil.

2. Planting method

Jujube trees are usually planted by sowing. You need to choose high-quality seeds, soak the seeds in rooting powder and wait for them to germinate. After germination, you can sow the seeds in the soil, cover them with a thin layer of soil, and water the roots until the soil is completely moist.

Precautions for planting jujube trees

1. Jujube trees like a humid environment and need to be watered frequently during the growing period. In spring and autumn, they need to be watered every 3 days, in winter, they need to be watered every 15-20 days, and in summer, they need to be watered once a day. This can not only ensure that the jujube trees have sufficient water, but also avoid water accumulation in the jujube trees, which can cause root rot.

2. The second thing is to do a good job of light management. Jujube trees like light, so they need to be planted in a sunny place. Ensure that the trees have at least five hours of light every day. The summer temperature is hot and the light is strong, so they need appropriate shade.
