Effects of Different Transplanting Time and Methods on Survival Ratio and Growth of Seedlings of Cerasus campanulata

Taking the 1-year-old Cerasus campanulata seedlings as experimental materials,the effects of different transplanting time,leaves and soil ball on survival ratio and growth of seedlings were studied. The results showed that the transplanting time had significant effect on the survival ratio,ground diameter and seedling height growth. Transplanting in dormancy period was the best way with the highest survival ratio,ground diameter and seedling height,which were 97. 07%,1. 86 cm and 1. 85 m,respectively. Transplanting in the shoot growth period and vigorous growth period,the survival ratio of removal the leaves was 83. 80%,which was 1. 18 times that of transplanting with leaves. However,removal the leaves had no significant effect on the ground diameter and seedling height. Transplanting seedlings with soil ball,the survival ratio and seedling height were 81. 76% and 1. 55 cm,respectively,which were 1. 12 times and 1. 07 times that of transplanting without the soil ball. However,the difference of these two methods on ground diameter was not significant. In a word,the best transplanting time was dormancy period,followed by the budding period,transplanting in shoot growth period and vigorous growth period need to remove all the leaves and carry soil ball.
