yea I would sharpen them and balance them when I received em. they wouldn't even be balanced

you know I think that depends on the situation. like right now in Texas its really Hott. so I would keep the root ball moist. when planting in the fall you may have some residual rain that helps. but overall when your planting you want to keep the root ball moist but not over saturated.

I appreciate that!

Actually thats a good question. honestly cutting the roots of the existing crate myrtles isn't ideal thats not what you want to do. we planted a lot of those hollies high.

You're welcome!

you know what I don't even know. but I can tell you that drift will survive a drought before they survive over watering.

yep. just leave it

Pruning those is to your desire it’s a woody ornamental just have fun with it ….

@@crixustreeturf I will try 😇

You don’t have to use no compost…. You can use compost but u don’t have 2 …. I don’t use any compost ever with anything ….

​@crixustreeturf didn't you put compost on the rose you just planted?

What’s the length of the screen and how many did you buy?

@@crixustreeturf Around ~20 feet. Bought 2 but may need 3. We don’t want to wait years for them to touch but I also don’t want to plant too closely and then hinder their growth.

@@jamess.7415 well I mean it’s just math…. U won’t see any growth really in the first year after the roots are established is when you will see the flush…. I would plant more than 2 if it was mine I’d go 4-6’ apart idk

@@crixustreeturf thanks

You have no clue what your talking about. Would you like for me to take a picture of that screen now? After 3 years. Those trees are on a full preventative tree program and are thriving. The 30’ Hollie’s at the beginning of the video or the highlighted photo for the video are spaced exactly the same distance. They were planted over 20 years ago….

@@crixustreeturf Could you show us? I'd love to see how they all look now.

@@peternyc I’m actually here right now I was trying to figure out how to post a picture

@@crixustreeturf Cool. I love Nellies, but my yard is only 25 feet wide. I don't know if planting them in my small yard is crazy or not.

Thanks for watching!

Thank you!

Run the high rate on the label

I power washed one the other day for the first time. When we hand scrubbed two big ones it took so much time and elbow grease

Hey! What is the species of tree you’re injecting? And what has been the average climate let’s say the last month

You can text me if ud like 469-416-9608

@@crixustreeturf hello and thank you for your answer. It is an OAK tree and here in TX was around 21 F in the last weeks

@@crixustreeturf thank you!

@@marizabarnes what kind of oak? When the last time you got rain?

Well of course it depends on how long you want to wait. Sometimes I have clients that aren’t willing to wait they want the screen now. Mature width is 15-20 ft. So I would plant maximum 6’ apart that’s just my opinion. They grow in zones 6-9….

100% correct, the Green Giants will over-grow in height, over and above the hollies stevens, which all will grow extremely wide & tall... I had to remove a holly steven because it got way too big and tall, it was planted only a couple feet from near my home foundation, it took about 5+ years before I realized the mistake I made by choosing a holly steven thinking it would stay smaller... these are all big, tall trees., that need plenty room circling them, not near a fence or the house, is not wise planting project.

That depends on the transpiration in the tree .... sometimes immediate sometimes can take hrs

i'm a pest controller myself, 7a, but have always wanted to be a tree doctor. i'd like to go to work for a tree company but i dont want to go backward in pay, at least not much. @@crixustreeturf

Absolutely, thank u ... I'll make sure I remember that... I'm practicing out loud right now...

Lol, every time he said that I was laughing because of that pronunciation

You know .... idk.... I mean maybe he was talking about planting in saturated soil conditions that don't drain well? You want good drainage. But in East Texas this is how you want to get it done... What climate or state r u planting ?

@@crixustreeturf Sorry for the delay, my notifications were somehow turned off.I'm in south louisiana, now zone 9a.They are on a slight incline along a small river.

So do we stop planting trees in this world cause the possibility of those trees dying?

We just did it cause we were tired of planting nellies haha

I completely disagree I have estates with Hollie’s planted 3 - 6 feet apart and the trees are 30’ tall …. No one is going to wait 10 years for there Nellie to get that wide. Just remember it’s a woody ornamental you can keep them how high or as wide as you want…. That may change your approach a little bit. All about speed dude u can do anything u want with them.

I have that question as well. I think calculate the dbh for my tree it is 22 and there is a mauget table that tells you amount needed based for that dbh.

Drainage ……. You want to plant in a way the soil will drain away from the roots

"Plant them High they won't die. Plant them low they won't grow" Hicks Yew especially do not like to have wet feet. But most landscape plants do not like wet feet.
