In June, we should start preparing Tuj for the summer season. The watering and fertilization of these popular trees is important. The irrigation schedule should be introduced and a potassium -rich conditioner should be prepared. Check how to strengthen these plants, and in the end the needles will stop.
In the summer, water should be watered abundantly in pots 1-2 times a week, every 2 days. It’s best to use a soft rainwater for this. By irrigating plants, be careful not to soak their green parts. We pour the water straight to the ground. Thanks to this, we will avoid burn leaves, which is especially important in the summer season.
Water the trees early in the morning or evening. We can’t do it in the middle of the day with full sun, because the water will evaporate from the ground. In addition, we recommend supplementing the soil with litter, limiting evaporation.
When it comes to conifers performing the function it is worth using drip lines. The water will release slowly and automatically, which will save our time, and above all, it will provide specimens with adequate moisture.

In spring, nitrogen -rich fertilizers are powered. In the summer, in the summer we must use primarily potassium nutrients that will strengthen plants and protect them from drought.
Such a potassium conditioner is especially recommended to trees that are weakened, grow slowly, brown and drop the needles. The most important thing is to monitor their condition and act immediately.
Coffee coffee coffee nitrogen and potassium nut. To make it, just pour 1 cup of this waste of 10 liters of water and set aside the whole day. We water the plants with it once a week in the summer season. Thanks to it, thuja will have more green mass, the needles will stop falling out.
Instead of coffee coffee grounds We can use a banana slurrywhich also contains potassium, but also calcium, phosphorus and silicic acid. To make it, we need to pour the skin of 3 bananas 1 liter of water and set aside for 7 days. After this time, we dilute the mixture with water in a 1: 5 ratio and water the plants with it every 3-4 weeks.
Nettle fertilizer is another proposalalso in the form of a slurry. It provides vitamins: K, C and B2 and minerals, i.e. potassium, phosphorus and iron. Effectively protects against fungal diseases. To prepare it, we need 1 kg of fresh leaves, which we pour 10 liters of water and leave for fermentation for 3 weeks. Before watering the trees, we dilute the mixture with water in a 1:10 ratio. We use it every 2-3 weeks.
