Shuimoxiansheng.com’s special topic for February of the lunar calendar in 2020 is also coming in time!Why is Arbor Day on March 12?The reason for designating this day as Arbor Day is, firstly, to consider the tree planting season; secondly, to commemorate Mr. Sun Yat-sen's lifelong achievements in promoting afforestation.On March 12, 1925, Dr. Sun Yat-sen passed away. In order to commemorate the founding father of the country, Dr. Sun Yat-sen, the National Government designated March 12 of each year as "Arbor Day." In 1979, the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress designated March 12 as my country's Arbor Day. The purpose of designating this day as Arbor Day is to commemorate Mr. Sun Yat-sen, who has always attached great importance to and advocated afforestation. In addition, March 12 is just after the Waking of Insects and before the Spring Equinox, which is the most suitable time for planting trees across the country. Is it necessary to plant trees on Arbor Day?"Arbor Day" is a festival stipulated by law in some countries to publicize the benefits of forests and mobilize the masses to participate in voluntary afforestation.According to the length of time, it can be divided into Tree Planting Day, Tree Planting Week or Tree Planting Month, collectively known as Arbor Day. Through this kind of activity, people's love for forests and afforestation will be stimulated, their understanding of the functions of forests will be improved, the greening of the land will be promoted, and the goals of loving and protecting forests, expanding forest resources and improving the ecological environment will be achieved. How to plant saplings?1. Remove the soil ball packaging: In order to prevent the soil in the soil ball from loosening when transplanting trees, straw ropes or non-woven fabrics are usually wrapped around the outside of the soil ball. However, when the trees are planted, the wrapped packaging must be removed in time. For example, if the wrapped straw ropes are not removed, they will rot, ferment, generate heat or burn the newly grown capillary roots after watering, which is not conducive to the survival of the tree.2. Tree pit treatment: The tree pit is an important environment for the rooting of newly transplanted trees. The quality of the tree pit soil environment determines the speed of rooting and the survival rate of the tree. Principles of tree pit treatment: ① The width of the tree hole should be about 20 cm greater than the width of the soil ball, and the depth should be about 10 cm higher than the height of the soil ball; ②Clear the stones and other debris in the tree hole; ③ If the soil is too poor, add appropriate fertilizer to the backfill soil; ④ If the soil is clay, a certain proportion of coarse gravel can be added to the original soil to facilitate soil ventilation. 3. Watering after planting: Watering trees after planting is one of the important maintenance measures. Generally, trees need to be watered three times after planting. Water once within 24 hours after backfilling the tree hole with soil after planting, water it a second time after 7 days, and water it a third time after one month. After three waterings, water according to the soil conditions. The principle is "don't water unless the soil is dry, and water thoroughly when you water". 4. Tree planting depth: The depth of tree planting is generally 5-8 cm of soil covering the above-ground part of the soil ball. Covering the soil too thickly can easily lead to poor soil permeability, resulting in low survival rate of the tree in the later stage, or relatively small leaves grown. 5. Chemical treatment: For tree species that are difficult to root, some root-promoting chemicals can be added during the rooting watering process after planting to facilitate early germination of the roots. |
