Planting: Plant your Douglas Fir in a spot in your yard that gets at least 6 hours of sun each day with well-drained soil. To plant your Douglas Fir, dig a hole in the ground that is two times as large as the root ball. Place the tree in the loose soil and press the soil down until the tree's roots are completely covered. 2. Watering: Water the ground immediately after you plant your tree, but don't over soak it. To establish your young tree, you may need to water it 1 to 4 times each month during the summer. Your tree will need around 20 inches of water per year, so regular rainfall should be sufficient unless there is a period of extreme drought. 3. Pruning: If you do see infested or diseased branches, you can prune them down to the trunk in the fall. Otherwise, no pruning is needed.
