1. Proper watering: Chestnut is a plant that is afraid of dryness, heat and freezing, so it must be carefully maintained and watered in time. Usually, water can be irrigated according to the soil growth. Spring is the growing season, and the sunshine environment in summer is dry and watery. Water in time in autumn and less in winter.
2. Sufficient sunshine: Chestnut is a tree that needs sufficient sunshine. Only by sunlight can the branches of chestnut trees flourish and have more functions. If you can get light when breeding, you must let chestnut trees bask in the sun.
3. Fertilize regularly: Chestnut trees need a lot of nutrients before they grow and mature. Therefore, we must apply more fertilizers in autumn and pay attention to nitrogen and potassium fertilizers. Especially when chestnuts are ripe, chestnuts will lose a lot of nutrients, so it is necessary to apply fertilizer in time to enhance the absorption of chestnut roots and let chestnuts quickly recover nutrition.
4. Prune frequently: It is not good for chestnut trees to grow too strong. We must trim them in time. Chestnut trees must be pruned every year after five years of growth. When pruning, you must cut off the diseased branches, weak branches and those aging branches. Make sure there are no overcrowded branches and overlapping overgrown branches.
5, winter antifreeze: chestnut trees are not antifreeze, so in winter, because the weather is too cold, fallen leaves may freeze to death. At this time, we should pay attention to keep warm, spread plates on soft soil, or spread grass to keep warm. At the same time, apply base fertilizer to keep the base soil warm. Generally speaking, these are done before thawing, otherwise it is easy to freeze the chestnut trees.
6. Pest control: Chestnut trees sometimes suffer from pests, among which peach fruit borer and weevil are the most common, and aluminum phosphide tablets need to be mixed with methyl bromide for pest control. After pest control, we should also pay attention to pest control. It is best to scrape the skin clean and paint it white to prevent pests from attacking. It is to scrape off the rough old skin of chestnut with a knife, and then apply whitening agent to isolate it.
To sum up, it is the precautions for planting chestnut trees. If you want to plant a big and strong chestnut tree, you can pay attention to the above precautions.
