Thuja Smaragd needs sufficient soil moisture for the tree of life to grow well and quickly. If the soil becomes too dry, the tree dries up and dies. How do you water Thuja Smaragd correctly?
Especially young thujas need enough water
Pour Thuja Smaragd sufficiently
The Thuja Smaragd gets neither dry substrate nor waterlogged soil.
Especially in the first few years you have to water Thuja Smaragd regularly until the roots have developed well.
If possible, water in the morning hours to prevent fungal diseases. If possible, do not wet the leaves and trunk.
Water the tree of life even in winter
In very dry winters there is a risk that the tree of life will dry out. In strong winter sun, the thuja evaporates a lot of moisture through the needles. You must therefore water the hedge from time to time even in winter on frost-free days.
tips
You should be careful when fertilizing Thuja Smaragd, especially if you use mineral fertilizers. If these are not given correctly, there is a risk of over-fertilization of the hedge.
