When is the best time to transplant cherry saplings? What are the reasons? We also ask netizens with cherry growing experience to help explainCherries have bright, beautiful, crystal-clear skin, red as agate, yellow as congealed fat, and the fruit is rich in sugar, protein, vitamins and various elements such as calcium, iron, phosphorus and potassium, making it widely loved by consumers. Below, Zhongdiwang has compiled the best time for planting cherry saplings for netizens' reference.
Cherry saplings are best planted in early spring, not in autumn, because after cherry seedlings are transplanted in autumn, the ground temperature drops quickly, and few or no new roots form before winter; while winter is dry and windy, and transplanted trees easily lose water and suffer from shoot shriveling.
However, for spring transplanting, all preparatory work for the planting holes should be done in autumn, and transplanting should be carried out as early as possible once the soil thaws in early spring. After transplanting, water thoroughly, then after straightening the tree, backfilling soil and building the tree basin, cover with plastic film, which can maintain soil moisture and raise ground temperature, benefiting root growth and tree recovery of the transplanted tree.
At the same time, immediately after transplanting the cherry saplings, shape and prune them, and take care to protect the pruning and saw cuts to prevent water loss from the tree, which helps balance the root system and canopy of the transplanted tree and allows the tree vigor to recover quickly.
