The Green Journey: From Youth to Maturity
Growing a tree in NSB isn’t just about planting and waiting. It’s a relationship, built over years of attentive care and understanding.
Steps to Ensure Healthy Growth in NSB Trees
- Choose the Right Sapling: In NSB, native tree species often fare better as they’re adapted to the local conditions. Consider factors like growth rate, size, and adaptability to NSB’s soil and climate.
- Proper Planting Techniques: A tree’s future health is largely determined at the planting stage. Ensure the hole is twice as wide as the root ball and that the tree is planted at the right depth.
- Consistent Watering: Young trees need consistent moisture. Implement a regular watering schedule, adjusting based on rainfall and season.
- Mulching for Protection: A layer of mulch around the base can protect young trees from temperature extremes and retain soil moisture.
- Regular Health Checks: Monitor your tree for signs of disease, pest infestations, or other stress factors, especially during its formative years.
