The distance between trees should not be less than 0,5 m and more than 3 m. If it is a hedge planting, the interval between thujas is 0.4-0.5 m. The root neck during landing should not be below ground level, and The hole is dug to a depth of 70-80 cm. The size of the pit is selected to whom the seedling lands. Decide when to plant thuja, it is necessary separately for each region, but most often the planting is carried out in September-October, so that the plant has time to take root and settle down before the onset of winter and cold weather.

If the land dries up, the crowns of the coniferous trees will begin to thin out and lose their decorativeness. Therefore, the stock circle is regularly loosened, but shallow, only 10 cm, so as not to damage the root system. You can carry out the procedure of mulching the soil with wet peat or ordinary sawdust, the layer of "blankets" should be at least 7 cm. When planting thuya in an unfavorable place, you need to take care of the regular summer moistening of the crown from a hose with a weak pressure of water.
