The next three days
If today is too hot or too windy, this shows when it pays to wait.
When to plant trees
A sapling takes root most easily while it is dormant, and when the soil is neither frozen nor dry. The current month is framed.
How we rate a day for planting
Temperature between 5 and 22 degrees
In that range the soil is not frozen, and the sapling does not lose water faster than its roots can replace it. Above 28 degrees planting is postponed, because a young tree struggles to take root in the heat.
Wind weaker than 20 km/h
Strong wind rocks a freshly planted sapling and tears the fine roots that grip the soil. If you do plant in wind, a stake and proper tying are a must.
Spring and autumn
The best months are March, April, October and November, when the tree is dormant and the soil is warm enough for roots to start. In summer you plant only from containers and with regular watering.
What to do after planting
The first two years decide whether the tree survives. Watering once a week in dry weather, a layer of mulch around the trunk and a check of the ties are enough for the sapling to take root.
