Know How You Could Protect Your Trees

Tree cutting
o you can be sure that the outdoor area will look pleasing throughout the year. Below are 3 of the common mistakes that you must avoid while cutting them!
Over-pruning your trees
It’s important to avoid over-pruning during the growing season because it can only lead to stress, making the tree more vulnerable to diseases. It’s important to bear in mind that every cut matters because it’s a wound to the tree. Getting rid of branches lessens the tree’s photosynthetic capacity, affects future growth, & takes away stored nutrients and resources. Worse yet, it creates entry points for wood-decay fungi to enter the tree and start rotting it from the inside. One too many poor cuts can lead to the tree’s death.
Topping the trees
Topping a tree is cutting off the top of the tree. It only leads to undue stress and can affect the balance of the tree, making it more likely to fall. It only happens when a tree grows out of the space it was planted, which is why it’s best to think about the future height of the mature tree before planting it.
Cutting for no reason
Tree cutting should be done to achieve a particular goal without damaging the overall well-being of the shrub. For instance, getting rid of dead limbs or increasing flower and fruit production. Doing the cutting without a particular goal only damages the tree for no reason at all! Extensive improper cutting takes time and patience to repair. Worst, it only leads to irreversible damage, so think before you cut!
