Basic Tree Maintenance Tips
Trees can often be considered granted but extreme weather condition can take its toll. It is necessary to keep trees healthy and aim to prevent diseases or weather damage.
Among the very first things you can do is find out about the trees you wish to care for and their particular requirements. If you’re uncertain about the sort of tree you have, there are many resources online to help you, such as the Forestry Commission Tree Name Trail. When researching trees, the main things to look out for are:
- Type of soil required
- Amount of water needed
- Specific sensitivities (dry spell, water, wind, etc).
When you know more about your trees, follow these 5 ideas to keep your trees resilient and healthy.
Protect the roots.
Concentrate on the zone around a tree approximately where the branches extend. Roots can extend beyond this zone but this is the area 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.
Safeguard the bark.
Think of the bark as an armour that secures the tree. Safeguarding the tree bark will prevent infections, diseases or insect activity. Keep an eye out for possible risks that could harm tree bark, consisting of:.
- Vehicles: trees near roadways or driveways can suffer hits from tall vehicles. Eliminate lower branches to avoid breakage and make certain trees are visible during the night.
- Sprinkler system: a spray of water that over and over again strikes bark at the exact same location can cause damage. If you utilize sprinklers to water your lawn, make certain these do not straight strike trees.
- Branches: branches rubbing versus each other can cause damage to the bark. Prune branches correctly so branches do not get laced.
- Lawn equipment: wear; t get lawn devices near the tree trunks as this can trigger severe damage to the bark.
Water efficiently.
Trees typically prosper well in existing moisture conditions and don’t need any extra watering. Nevertheless, depending upon your local climate, you may need to water your trees during extended durations of drought. If you do have to water trees in the summer, a periodic deep watering is preferred to a regular misting. In winter season trees should not require any watering.
Prune appropriately.
We’ve formerly blogged about pruning trees as it’s a vital part of tree maintenance. It’s something you can do yourself if you understand what you are doing, otherwise you can always work with a professional. The main things to look out for are:.
- Crossing branches: get rid of the smaller branch so the stronger one can grow without being harmed.
- Broken and dead branches: a tidy cut will help the tree heal.
Low branches: get rid of branches that are low and are susceptible to damage (i.e. by an effect). You can also get rid of low branches for visual purposes.
Keep soil healthy.
There are two ways 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 have to touch the trunk.
- Plant turf or some kind of ground cover. Dead plant product will decay in the ground and enhance the soil. Ensure your plants can thrive in the shade and that their roots don’t compete with the tree.
