How much does a 60 cm clay ball weigh?

The spherical volume of 60 cm soil ball is u = 4/3 (π r 3).

Soft soil ball packaging is suitable for moving trees with DBH 10- 15cm. Soft soil can be used when the soil ball (loam) is less than1.3 m. To ensure safety, wooden sticks should be used to support the trunk above the branch point. Draw a circle with the trunk as the center and the enlarged mound size as the radius, and dig a ditch with a width of 60-80cm vertically outward (convenient for human operation) until the specified depth (i.e. the height of the soil ball).

Big tree transplant time:

Generally, the soil balls of big trees are complete, and the operation procedures are strictly implemented during transplantation. You can transplant at any time after transplantation. Transplanting at the best time can not only save the planting cost, but also reduce the transplanting cost of big trees, which is convenient for normal maintenance and management in the future. The time of transplanting big trees is determined according to the biological characteristics of trees and local climatic conditions.

Early spring is the best time to transplant big trees. At this time, the sap begins to flow, the soil temperature rises, the damaged roots are easy to heal and regenerate during excavation, the trees begin to sprout but the branches and leaves have not yet grown, the transpiration of the trees is small, and the planting survival rate is high.
