Planting Preparations<\/h1>\n\n\n\n
Before planting your new tree, it is important to prepare for\nthe project. This includes choosing a good spot for the tree, with the growth\nof the canopy and root ball in mind, as well as, ensuring the soil pH conditions\nare correct and you have all the necessary supplies to get the job done. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
After making these considerations, you can then prep the\narea where you will be planting the tree. Start by removing all of the top\nlayers of vegetation to reveal a large patch of fresh dirt. If your soil is too\nsandy or has too much clay, you may want to treat it or choose another spot\nbetter suited for trees. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
After clearing weeds, grass, and underbrush from your work area, you are ready to dig, plant, and secure your new tree! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Post-Planting Tree Care<\/h1>\n\n\n\n
When a tree has been newly planted, it is in its most\nvulnerable state; and like an infant, it will need more care and attention at\nits young age, than it will as it grows older. The first priority for a newly\nplanted tree is stability. You should use cables or tree stakes to secure your\ntree in its spot. Although a little wind and storm is good for the tree to\ndevelop strength, too much can take it down. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Your next priority is water. For the first few years, your\ntree will require a lot of water. After this time, it should be\nwell-established, and not require as much. Begin by watering your newly planted\ntree once or twice a week, but make them a long, slow trickle of water. Before watering\nyour tree again, be sure to let the soil dry completely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Pruning is your third priority, although it will be some time before it is necessary. Furthermore, it is important to have a licensed and trained tree service company to provide tree pruning services because it is a very delicate job. One wrong cut can cause a tree to develop disease or pest infestations, and ultimately lead to their demise. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Your next priority is protection and sustenance. Do this by\nkeeping a watchful eye on lawn equipment, wildlife damage, and other potential\ntree dangers. Also, you must mulch around the base of your tree to maintain\nmoisture and nutrients. Lastly, consider providing the proper amounts of\nfertilization to promote healthy growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
