Check the substrate to see if there is enough magnesium. Loosen the soil deeply, as the tree of life does not grow in waterlogging, but dies.
Very acidic soils should be limed before planting in order to increase the pH value. Otherwise there is a risk of manganese deficiency.
Fertilize the tree of life once a year
The growth of the thuja emerald can also be accelerated by providing the tree of life with sufficient nutrients in the following years.
Fertilize in spring with a slow release fertilizer for conifers. When using short-term fertilizers, a second fertilization in late summer is appropriate. Organic fertilizers such as compost, horn shavings and manure can also be given more often.
Avoid over-fertilizing with mineral fertilizers. These attack the leaves, roots and trunks and discolour the needles.
How high is the growth of the thuja emerald?
Under good conditions, the thuja emerald grows 20 cm per year. In doing so, it strives primarily upwards. The tree of life remains rather narrow on the sides.
Tips
Thuja Smaragd grows particularly slowly in an unfavorable location. This is the case when the space is too shady or the ground conditions are not ideal.
