Planting time

Generally, planting is carried out in winter and early spring, and the soil temperature should be stable at about 10-12 ℃

Preparation before planting

Select mulberry seedlings with good quality and no diseases and pests; Prepare a container of appropriate size. It is best to choose a larger basin for mulberry potting. It is better to use coarse mulberry sand to prevent the soil from being porous, which is better for mulberry trees. Before planting mulberry trees, you can add some rotten organic fertilizer to the basin bottom as base fertilizer

Planting method

When planting in summer and autumn, we should pay attention not to damage the roots as much as possible and protect the roots of mulberry seedlings; For planting in winter and spring, it is necessary to slightly trim the excessively long taproot to promote multiple lateral roots. Bury the mulberry seedlings in the matrix, cover the soil and gently lift the roots to stretch, then gently pat and compact the soil with your hands, then loosen the soil, cover the rhizome for about 3cm, and pour enough root fixing water

Maintenance after planting

Mulberry potted plants are suitable to be placed in ventilated light places such as open-air balconies; Keep the soil moderately moist, timely drench the soil in case of drought, and timely drain the water in case of heavy rain; Loosening soil and weeding can be conducive to the growth of mulberry roots; Fertilizer should be applied with less and more meals. After mulberry seedlings germinate and open leaves, fecal water or urea fertilizer can be applied once. In the future, according to the specific growth situation, fertilization can be applied for 1-2 times. In addition, special attention should be paid to the prevention and control of diseases and pests in the breeding process of mulberry trees< span>
