Basic Tree Maintenance Tips
Trees can often be considered approved however intense weather can take its toll. It is very important to keep trees healthy and attempt to avoid diseases or weather damage.
Among the very first things you can do is discover the trees you wish to look after and their particular requirements. If you’re unsure about the sort of tree you have, there are many resources online to help you, such as the Forestry Commission Tree Name Trail. When looking into trees, the main points to watch out for are:
- Type of soil needed
- Quantity of water required
- Particular sensitivities (drought, water, wind, etc).
Once you know more about your trees, follow these 5 suggestions to keep your trees durable and healthy.
Secure the roots.
Concentrate on the zone around a tree as much as where the branches extend. Roots can extend beyond this zone but this is the location where roots are more delicate. The secret is to make sure that the soil is not too compact so that roots can keep soaking up water and oxygen.
Secure the bark.
Think of the bark as an armour that secures the tree. Safeguarding the tree bark will avoid infections, illness or insect activity. Look out for possible risks that might damage tree bark, consisting of:.
- Vehicles: trees near roads or driveways can suffer hits from high vehicles. Eliminate lower branches to avoid breakage and make sure trees show up at night.
- Lawn sprinklers: a spray of water that over and over again strikes bark at the very same place can trigger damage. If you use sprinklers to water your lawn, make certain these don’t straight hit trees.
- Branches: branches rubbing versus each other can cause damage to the bark. Prune branches correctly so branches don’t get entwined.
- Lawn equipment: don; t get lawn equipment near the tree trunks as this can trigger major damage to the bark.
Water effectively.
Trees typically prosper well in existing moisture conditions and don’t need any extra watering. Nevertheless, depending upon your regional climate, you may need to water your trees during extended periods of drought. If you do have to water trees in the summer season, an occasional deep watering is chosen to a regular misting. In winter trees should not require any watering.
Prune effectively.
We’ve previously written about pruning trees as it’s an important part of tree upkeep. It’s something you can do yourself if you know what you are doing, otherwise you can constantly hire a professional. The main things to look out for are:.
- Crossing branches: remove the smaller branch so the more powerful one can grow without being harmed.
- Broken and dead branches: a clean cut will help the tree recover.
Low branches: remove branches that are low and are prone to damage (i.e. by an impact). You can also eliminate low branches for aesthetic purposes.
Keep soil healthy.
There are 2 methods you can ensure that the soil around your tree is abundant in nutrients.
- Use mulch. Spread out a layer of mulch around your tree, about 2 to 4 inches thick. The mulch does not need to touch the trunk.
- Plant yard or some kind of ground cover. Dead plant product will decay in the ground and enrich the soil. Ensure your plants can thrive in the shade and that their roots do not take on the tree.
