How to plant hazelnut trees

Planting time: You can plant hazelnut trees throughout the year, but the most suitable time is from December to March in the Gregorian calendar. During this time, the climate is cool, and the trees will grow and develop better.

Preparing the planting soil: The soil should be fertile, loose, and well-drained, to provide the best growing conditions for the tree.

Choosing the planting location: Choose a location with plenty of sunlight and a temperature range of 25 to 30 degrees Celsius. Before planting, dig a hole with a size of about 60x80cm, let the hole dry for about 1 month before placing the tree for planting.

Planting method: Buy hazelnut trees from nurseries. Place the tree into the hole, remove the plastic wrap and any surrounding ties if there are any. Then fill the hole with soil and compact it to prevent the tree from tilting. Water the tree after planting. We can also use supporting branches to prevent the hazelnut tree from falling and being affected by adverse factors.

How to care for hazelnut trees

Watering: Provide enough water for the tree, watering every 2 days or reduce the frequency if the soil is moist. It is best to water in the early morning or late afternoon when the temperature is low, allowing the water to penetrate deep into the roots before evaporating.

Pruning and weed control: Clear the grass around the base to create ventilation for the hazelnut tree, trim any withered or yellowed branches and leaves to maintain the tree’s beauty and ensure it receives the best light. This also helps to prevent the tree from being a breeding ground for diseases.
