Basic Tree Maintenance Tips
Trees can frequently be taken for given but extreme weather can take its toll. It is essential to keep trees healthy and try to avoid illness or weather condition damage.
One of the very first things you can do is find out about the trees you want to take care of and their specific requirements. If you’re uncertain about the type of tree you have, there are numerous resources online to assist you, such as the Forestry Commission Tree Name Trail. When researching trees, the main points to watch out for are:
- Kind of soil needed
- Amount of water required
- Specific level of sensitivities (drought, water, wind, etc).
Once you know more about your trees, follow these 5 suggestions to keep your trees durable and healthy.
Safeguard the roots.
Focus on the zone around a tree as much as where the branches extend. Roots can extend beyond this zone but this is the area where roots are more sensitive. The secret is to make sure that the soil is not too compact so that roots can keep soaking up water and oxygen.
Protect the bark.
Consider the bark as an armour that safeguards the tree. Securing the tree bark will prevent infections, diseases or insect activity. Watch out for possible risks that could damage tree bark, including:.
- Vehicles: trees near roadways or driveways can suffer hits from high vehicles. Remove lower branches to prevent damage and ensure trees are visible at night.
- Sprinkler system: a spray of water that over and over again hits bark at the very same location can trigger damage. If you utilize sprinklers to water your yard, make sure these don’t directly hit trees.
- Branches: branches rubbing versus each other can trigger damage to the bark. Prune branches properly so branches don’t get laced.
- Yard devices: wear; t get yard devices near the tree trunks as this can cause major damage to the bark.
Water successfully.
Trees normally thrive well in existing wetness conditions and don’t require any extra watering. Nevertheless, depending upon your local environment, you might have to water your trees throughout extended durations of dry spell. If you do need to water trees in the summertime, an occasional deep watering is chosen to a frequent misting. In winter season trees shouldn’t require any watering.
Prune effectively.
We’ve previously discussed pruning trees as it’s an important part of tree upkeep. It’s something you can do yourself if you understand exactly what you are doing, otherwise you can always hire an expert. The main points to keep an eye out for are:.
- Crossing branches: eliminate the smaller branch so the stronger one can grow without being damaged.
- Broken and dead branches: a tidy cut will assist the tree heal.
Low branches: eliminate branches that are low and are susceptible to damage (i.e. by an impact). You can also remove low branches for aesthetic purposes.
Keep soil healthy.
There are 2 methods you can make certain that the soil around your tree is abundant in nutrients.
- Usage mulch. Spread a layer of mulch around your tree, about 2 to 4 inches thick. The mulch does not need to touch the trunk.
- Plant turf or some type of ground cover. Dead plant material will decay in the ground and improve the soil. Ensure your plants can prosper in the shade and that their roots don’t compete with the tree.
