Basic Tree Maintenance Tips

 

Trees can typically be taken for granted however intense weather condition can take its toll. It is necessary to keep trees healthy and aim to prevent illness or weather damage.

One of the first things you can do is discover the trees you want to take care of and their specific needs. If you’re uncertain about the sort of tree you have, there are lots of resources online to help you, such as the Forestry Commission Tree Name Trail. When looking into trees, the main points to keep an eye out for are:

  • Type of soil needed
  • Quantity of water needed
  • Particular sensitivities (drought, water, wind, etc).

As soon as you understand more about your trees, follow these 5 pointers to keep your trees resistant and healthy.

Safeguard the roots.

Concentrate on the zone around a tree approximately where the branches extend. Roots can extend beyond this zone however this is the location where roots are more sensitive. The key is to make sure that the soil is not too compact so that roots can keep taking in water and oxygen.

Protect the bark.

Think of the bark as an armour that protects the tree. Safeguarding the tree bark will prevent infections, diseases or insect activity. Look out for prospective risks that might harm tree bark, consisting of:.

  • Vehicles: trees near roads or driveways can suffer hits from high vehicles. Get rid of lower branches to avoid breakage and make certain trees show up in the evening.
  • Sprinkler system: a spray of water that over and over again strikes bark at the exact same location can trigger damage. If you use sprinklers to water your lawn, ensure these do not directly strike trees.
  • Branches: branches rubbing against each other can trigger damage to the bark. Prune branches correctly so branches do not get braided.
  • Yard equipment: don; t get lawn devices near to the tree trunks as this can cause serious damage to the bark.

Water efficiently.

Trees generally flourish well in existing wetness conditions and do not need any additional watering. Nevertheless, depending upon your local environment, you might need to water your trees during extended durations of dry spell. If you do have to water trees in the summer season, an occasional deep watering is preferred to a regular misting. In winter season trees should not require any watering.

Prune correctly.

We’ve previously discussed pruning trees as it’s an essential part of tree upkeep. It’s something you can do yourself if you understand exactly what you are doing, otherwise you can constantly work with an expert. The main points to keep an eye out for are:.

  • Crossing branches: remove the smaller branch so the more powerful one can grow without being damaged.
  • Broken and dead branches: a clean cut will assist the tree heal.

Low branches: get rid of branches that are low and are vulnerable to damage (i.e. by an impact). You can also eliminate low branches for visual purposes.

Keep soil healthy.

There are 2 methods you can ensure that the soil around your tree is rich in nutrients.

  • Usage mulch. Spread out a layer of mulch around your tree, about 2 to 4 inches thick. The mulch does not have to touch the trunk.
  • Plant lawn or some type of ground cover. Dead plant material will decay in the ground and enhance the soil. Make certain your plants can prosper in the shade and that their roots don’t take on the tree.

Ballyknockan or Ballynockan ( bal-ə-NOK-ən; Irish: Buaile an Chnocáin) is a village and townland in County Wicklow, Ireland.

Ballyknockan has been known for the granite quarries that have existed since the early 19th century.

Ballyknockan village is located 220 metres above sea level and is around 25 miles from Dublin City Centre. In 1940 the village of Balinahown was completely flooded and parts of the surrounding towns of Valleymount and Lacken were also flooded to make way for the Poulaphouca Reservoir which spans out over 20 km2 across the land.

Since then the village now overlooks the reservoir which provides water to thousands of Dublin homes and creates electricity, while also offering many water pursuits such as fishing, sailing, windsurfing, boating, and leisure cruising and canoeing.

Ballyknockan hosts the Ballyknockan Music Festival “KnockanStockan”, annually each summer.
