The young specimens, recently sheltered, need more cures compared to the adult specimens: as the years go by the development of a good radical apparatus allows the plant to be satisfied with the rain, without needing other waterings. We suggest watering pretty often and regularly, with 2-3 buckets of water ; we should always wait for the soil to be clearly dry between one watering and the other. During this time of year usually it is necessary to irrigate every 2-3 weeks .
Generalities Douglas-fir
The Douglas-fir develops growing in height, and develops a bare stem, creating a thick crown. This plant in the winter assumes a green colouring; it is large in size and can reach 20 m high. It keeps its leaves in the winter. The Douglas-fir develops like a conifer.
Exposure Douglas-fir
Locate this plant in a partially shady place, where it can receive the sunrays during the coolest hours of the day. During the winter young plants could need a light protection from the wind or cold; when putting the very young specimens, with a thin stem, in shelter, we should provide them with a high stake to keep them erect.The Douglas-fir plant can be grown in the garden throughout the whole year. It doesn't fear cold weather and it bears very harsh minimum temperatures.

Treatments Douglas-fir
The spring weather, with a high temperature swing between the day and night hours, and pretty frequent rains, can favour the development of fungus diseases, which should be treated pre-emptively with a systemic fungicide, to use before the gems grow excessively; at the end of the winter we also suggest a wide range insecticide to prevent the attack of aphids and cochineals. We should always remember to do these treatments when there aren't flowerings in the garden.
Soil Douglas-fir
These trees love quite soft, not too drained, soils.
