Technology steps Technology Essentials Season/month of implementation 1. Sanitation cutting Proportion of felling: > 30%.
Method of operation: manual, mechanical.
Thinning method: Cutting dead and dying wood.Winter 2. Pruning Pruning of retained trees.
Pruning intensity: crown height ratio 1:3 to 1:4.
Pruning cycle: 5 to 10 years.Winter 3. Soil preparation Preparation method: ditching preparation or hole preparation, mainly hole preparation.
Requirements for preparation: 40cm long × 40cm wide × 40~50cm deep for hole preparation; 30~40cm deep for ditching preparation.Spring 4. Replanting and regeneration Seedling species: coniferous trees are Pinus densiflora Sieb. et Zucc. var. zhangwuensis Zhang, Li et Yuan var. nov., Pinus sylvestris var. mongolica, Pinus densiflora Sieb. et Zucc., Pinus syluestriformis (Takenouchi)T.Wang ex Cheng, Pinus banksiana Lamb, etc.; broad-leaved trees are Acer truncatum Bunge, Populus alba × P. Berolinensis, etc.
Seedling specifications: coniferous trees are 3-5 year old container seedlings with a height of more than 30 cm; broad-leaved trees are 2-year old container seedlings or bare-root seedlings with a height of more than 30 cm.
Species configuration: conifer- conifer mixed, conifer-broad mixed.
Spacing: 2 m × 3 m, 2 m × 4 m, 3 m × 3 m, 3 m × 4 m.
Planting pit specifications: 40 cm × 40 cm × 40cm for coniferous trees; 40 cm × 40 cm × 50 cm for broad-leaved trees.
Watering: watering once is required for spring planting, and consequent watering depends on the drought conditions.
Other requirements: coniferous trees such as Pinus densiflora Sieb. et Zucc. var. zhangwuensis Zhang, Li et Yuan var. nov., Pinus sylvestris var. mongolica, Pinus densiflora Sieb. et Zucc., Pinus syluestriformis (Takenouchi)T.Wang ex Cheng, Pinus banksiana Lamb should be planted at a density of less than 1600 plants per hm-2; broad-leaved trees such as Acer truncatum Bunge and Populus alba × P. Berolinensis should be planted with a density of 1500-1800 plants per hm-2.Spring, July to August in rainy season 5. Maintenance and management Enclosures. 6.
