Do hedge

Come autumn, the leaves turn yellow and flies, soon the rains will charge. It's time to do one of the aspects of construction - arrangement of hedges. I want to share with you how I do it.


Kratenkoe entry: when I did a wooden fence, I just pawned that it will not last forever, and eventually would like to see in its place a hedge. Therefore, the fence was specially made are not continuous, in order to provide a hedge full access of air and light.

Actually, the hedge of trees: when I go to the country (I have it in the south suburbs), I take with me demining blade and half a dozen plastic bags with handles. Stop by the wayside, I'll go with it and go into the woods. There, right on the edge, in the thick undergrowth, I dig some tall fir trees no more than 30-50 cm (if there will be more - to take root will be worse). Dig, neatly cutting down the forest land around the room Christmas tree that was left by forest vegetation - moss, grass, etc. Be careful - the spruce root system is superficial, so try not to pull the roots out of the land - it is best to raise a Christmas tree right on the shovel and put back in package.

On reaching the site, I digress 1 m from the fence, and plant a fir dug along it every 40-50 cm, which is to hedge most then. Previously each well must be prepared by mixing soil with some sand. Com forest land along with the Christmas tree just put in the hole (it is shallow, at around 10 cm) above the ground and backfilled with trite trample down his foot. Then all this stuff spilled water.

If there is no water in the area (like me) - it does not matter, I'm not vain at the beginning of a note written about the fall season and rain: the rain and all the spilled water. Say this year due to unprecedented rainy season, I have successfully transplanted trees already in June - all rooted as one.

The only thing that is afraid of a young transplanted plants - a bright sun. Therefore, in the early years of space around the landing I have not weeded and overgrown with weeds leave: a Christmas tree anyway, because they grew in very dense undergrowth, and the sun no longer burns. You can from time to time a little thin sornyakovuyu growth - so you gradually accustom your landing to another solar regime.

That's so gradually to 4-5 for the firs run over, and will you have a whole period of the hedge. In subsequent years you will just have to watch her, feeding when necessary, but cut when the fence reaches the desired height. Yes, this is not a quick thing, will increase the fence at once, but we did not rush to you - what is the firs 5 per trip, is not it?

Finally I would like to add just one thing: if you want a thicker hedge - Christmas trees can be planted in two rows staggered.

In general, it turns cheap, angry and beautiful. Good luck in your exploration of space!
