Spruce babies are alive and well. As with humans, there are stronger and weaker among them. We cannot allow 100% to survive. Not everything survives in the forest either. This is life and nature. However, proper care will help ensure the survival of the spruce baby in your homes until spring, so please do not forget him. Still dip, but not over. Here's a more in-depth tutorial to ensure your baby's well-being.
Central heating:
- Soak every 1-2 days, check that the peat is fairly moist.
- In addition, spruce thorns and new incoming shoots / shoots should be sprayed with water (1-2x per day).
- Growing place: in a place you like on Christmas Eve, for example on a table.
- After place in a place where the plant receives light, such as a windowsill. The base should be underneath so that the water flowing through the supply does not damage the surfaces.
- Baby spruce has come from a nursery with fertilizer mixed with peat, it will be enough for some time, when the first signs of yellow tones begin to appear, then a little fertilizer should be added.
- Do not overload the baby, excessive fertilization will destroy the baby!
- A suitable fertilizer is a fertilizer for orchids (eg fertilizer sticks). The fertilizer must not contain chlorine, in extreme cases a small amount.
- When using softwood fertilizer, apply a little fertilizer to the surface of the peat with your fingertips and it will be absorbed into the soil by dipping.
- In the spring can be planted only after the night frosts have passed!
- If a spruce has been in a warm room for some time, it must not be raised to minus degrees!
Residential building with stove heating:
- Watering every 1-4 days, make sure the peat is fairly moist.
- Spray spruce thorns and new incoming shoots with water (1x) every 1-2 days, depending on how warm the house is (16-21 degrees).

In a house with a veranda or balcony with a temperature of 10-15 degrees, you can make a spruce baby wait for spring there after the New Year.
