How to Care for Picea abies Norway Spruce TreesGrows best in high nitrogen, acidic soils. Choose a high nitrogen, low phosphorous fertilizer. Slow release fertilizer is best applied in Spring. Ensure trees stay well-watered for their first year. Water new seedlings when the top layer of soil is dry (1 gallon per watering is a good rule of thumb). Germination Procedure: Soak seeds in a glass of water for 24 hours before sowing. Sow seeds by gently pressing them into the surface of the soil as they require sunlight to sprout. Tip: Ensure you do not water with a heavy pour so to avoid burying them into the darkness of the soil away from the light. Germination time: 30 days. ***Priority mail and tracking option: To upgrade your order to Priority mail, simply add your item(s) to the cart and find the item I have available for a Priority Mail Upgrade...add it to your cart along with your item(s) by selecting to Buy It Now and pay for it and your other items in 1 cart transaction.
