Key points of transplanting Araucaria seedlings

Mulch

Araucaria seedlings have few lateral roots and fine hairy roots. If you don't pay attention, it is likely to shrink and dry. Therefore, we must protect the root system of seedlings. This requires that the soil be transported and kept moist. And it should be planted immediately after being transported back. If it is too late, it should also be placed in a cool and humid place to keep the roots fresh. In addition, if it is winter, pay attention to thermal insulation to reduce the freezing damage during transportation

Fine planting

When planting seedlings, it is best to bring the original culture soil. The soil for planting should be loose and breathable. When planting, it is best to plant deeper to avoid exposing the root system, and do not press the root too hard. After planting, pour enough water

Heat preservation

As mentioned above, if you buy seedlings in winter or other low temperature seasons, you should do a good job of heat preservation during transportation, because Araucaria is not cold resistant and needs antifreeze. In addition, after planting, it can be planted in a greenhouse or covered with plastic film for thermal insulation

Shade

The seedlings of Araucaria are afraid of exposure, so shade them immediately after planting

Treatment of broken seedlings of Araucaria lanceolata

Araucaria seedling tissue is relatively tender and easy to break. The seedlings with broken roots can be washed with clean water and then inserted into plain sand to maintain an appropriate temperature. They can take root again in about 1-2 weeks. When the roots are developed, they can be colonized. For seedlings with broken buds and stems, they can be settled as usual and grow new buds over a period of time
