How to store fruit tree seedlings

After the fruit saplings are dug out of the nursery in the fall, if they are not planted immediately, they must be stored and planted in the early spring. The quality of winter storage of fruit saplings not only affects the survival rate, but also results in poor soil selection, improper soil selection, or improper storage techniques, which can cause seedlings to rot or water, or to scratch, germinate, or even die. The storage of fruit trees and seedlings by means of a ditch method is simple and easy, saves work materials, and has a good storage effect. The experience of seedlings in northern China is described as follows: The location of the storage ditch: To select a high-lying, well-drained sandy soil and a low-lying, sunny place, the soil structure must also be solid to prevent the ditch from collapsing. . In order to facilitate transportation and occupy less land, the storage ditch can be located in the rows of nursery saplings. The excavated earth should be placed on the north side of the ditch, and the earth should be built to prevent winds. The width of the ditch is 1.3 meters and the depth is 1.5 meters. The length can be determined by the number of seedlings and the size of the land area. The general length is about 25 meters. The two sides of the ditch are slightly sloped. When digging the ditch, do not scoop out the soil and leave part of the soil for burying. After the ditch is dug, 15 cm thick wet sand is laid at the bottom of the ditch. In order to maintain the purity of the fruit saplings, prevent miscellaneous seedlings when digging seedlings and pick out seedlings that are extremely weak, seriously injured, and severely diseased. Debris branches and branches below 60 cm are cut off. Don't overweight your roots. Cut your big injury day. Storage of seedlings generally begins in early November. The saplings that have been trimmed are laid diagonally at one end of the ditch, with about 100 rows per row, and the interval between rows is 30 cm until they are almost full. The ends of the ditch should be filled with loose soil for seedlings. The gaps between different breeds and different grades should be larger, and the wooden signs written should be used for marking. Between each row and between rows, soil should be filled with loose soil. The thickness of the soil should be two-thirds of the height of the seedlings. If it is too thick, it will be inconvenient. After the soil is buried, it is appropriate to slip some water according to the soil moisture, and generally two irrigations per square meter. After thawing in the spring, the seedlings will be out of the pit. If the temperature rises after April, the seedlings of the fruit trees will germinate easily and emerge late. If some of them have begun to sprout, the saplings may be delayed to germinate for 7 to 8 days. . When you leave the pit, you must first dig out the soil filled at one end of the pit, then gently remove the soil from the roots and roots of each row of seedlings, and then gently pull out the seedlings. The saplings of the mountain stator are rootstocks that are very brittle and easy to break. Take care when pulling the seedlings.
