Fertilisation
Spring and autumn. It’s preferable to use organic fertilizers which favour and preserve the mycorrhizae.
Transplant
Every 3 years, at the moment of budding and before the opening of the needles within the buds. In our Mediterranean zone this is in the middle of March.
Substrate
100% Kiryuzuna, or mixed with 50-70% of Akadama.
Pruning
To be done in the coldest months of the year. Leave needles and leaf buds on the branches otherwise they will dry.
Nipping
As needles appear, pinch back overgrown shoots. In the growing season, remove long main shoots, trim one-third to half of this year’s new candles.. In late summer or early autumn, remove old needles and crowded twigs to let in light.
Fencing
From October to March. It’s recommended to use copper wire because pines are very flexible trees and the wire has to remain for a long time on the tree.
