If the soil is clayy, it will be requiredI have a drainage layer, then a nutrient layer. If dry, drainage is not necessary, while in the nutrient mixture of soil and humus are added phosphorus-potassium fertilizers and ash.
The latter, in addition to its main role, also performs disinfecting function - It is quite possible that the roots of the sapling were injured during planting. Nutrient primer must be thoroughly mixed. If you do not, you can burn the roots of chemicals.
The hole is filled up by a third, the nutritious soil is laid on a hill, a seedling is planted on this hill. It should be filled in so that the root neck is not less than 3-6 centimeters above ground level.
