Signs of Low Temperature in Red spruce

Symptoms

Red spruce exhibits exceptional cold hardiness, yet winter temperatures should remain above 40℉. Should the temperature fall below this point, while no immediate changes might be apparent in winter, branches could become fragile and parched by spring, with no new growth appearing.

Solutions

During spring, remove any lifeless branches that have not developed fresh foliage.

Signs of High Temperature in Red spruce

Symptoms

Red spruce does not withstand elevated temperatures well. When temperatures surpass 70℉, it can suffer considerable leaf shedding, and in extreme instances, the entire plant may wilt and perish.

Solutions

Cut off the sun-scorched and desiccated sections. Relocate the plant to an area offering protection from the midday and afternoon sun, or employ a shade cloth for cover. Water the plant in the morning and evening to maintain soil moisture.
