2. Then lower the box by having two people hold the 4 straps and lower it into the hole.
3. Fill in sand or soil on the outer side of the box.
4. Fill up with growth medium up to the bottom of the root ball, so the top of the root ball is level with the top of the box.
5. Place the tree in the center of the box and fill up with growth medium.
6. Ensure that the growth medium and soil/sand are well compacted.
7. Set up ties on the tree at an appropriate height. Use 2-3 stakes and place them into the ground on the inside of the stone wool.
8. For very clayey soil, a gravel structure should be made under the box.
9. Finish by adding 250 to 320 liters of water.
10. Water 5–7 times during the first two years. It is important to use surface watering with approximately 200 liters per time.
