- Here is a time elapse showing the planting of a 95 gallon Shumard Red Oak. Necessary tools
and procedures to plant your tree correctly. You can do it by yourself. Also check out www.crixusturf.com
As someone who has worked around trees for over 20 years, I can attest that these planting techniques are pretty sound and his narration is very informative. Good job sir
Excellent tutorial and solid advice. I see so many people planting trees the exact size as container and root ball top slightly below grade then burying trunk it 6 inches of mulch. Flare should always be visible and slightly above grade.
Wow, you're a pro. I want to plant this tree with my son but all the extra care is a lot to take in for an amateur. Thanks for the video.
I don’t know what being a pro. It’s just one way to do it. You could do it for sure. Your welcome
The view of the lake is amazing
Thanks you🌱 for planting Trees 🌱👍🌱😊🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🍃🌿🌳🌲🌱🍃🌿🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲
Mix with native soil I never planted a tree that high ,I do tamp the outer ring by walking in it .Then I make a donut hole with mulch don't let it touch the tree .Wow you went crazy with mulch but hey I bet the tree likes it each tree is different .Use mushroom stuff for fertilizer .
Never planted a tree that high either…he had to go crazy with mulch to make it look even with the ground lol
Very cool and helpful thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching!
How come you don't reuse the native soil when back filling around tree?
In many cases, it is wise to introduce store-bought, nutrient- rich soils to freshly planted trees. This inspires new root production and gets the investment off to a healthy start.
Native soul can be redistributed around your property such as low areas or other projects.

Beautiful work! Pleasure to watch. How much water per week for a tree of this size? What about trees planted in summer? Should watering frequency be more than just once per week?
You know that really depends on where you live. You want to keep the soil slightly moist but don’t over saturate. Trees planted in the summer is against mist horticulture practice. I live in Texas and when you plants trees in the summer there is a lot of stress involved. I’d wait until Oct this way you get the roots establish before the next summer. But if you plant in the summer keep a water bag on it and keep it full don’t let that root ball get dry. The watering depends on your circumstances. Remember trees don’t like their feet wet... unless it is a bald cypress lol... but generally speaking just keep the soil moist but don’t over water... hope this helps... there really is so much involved when determine the context watering program for your tree... what time of year, where, what type of tree etc 😀
Super thrive is for established trees

I just planted two shumard oaks yesterday 6 footers I live in northern Illinois greatest threat is the white tail love to rub on them I need to protect them trunks with some corrugated pipe but any ways that’s a beautiful tree you put in .
Nice..... great trees and thanks
That’s actually a nice solution to those White Tail
We have nutria here because of the lake so wire helps with those water rats .... they will destroy your tree
Hi I just bought a house and I believe the two trees they planted on the front lawn are these type of red oaks. I feel they were planted too close together and they put mulch all around it up to the root. I have also noticed that the leaves are starting to roll up vertically. Can you please give me some recommendations on how to care for these trees and also if I should look into separating them more or changing anything ? I was also hoping you can recommend a another great shade tree. I appreciate your time
There are so many variations I just don’t know... I would have to see the leaves 🍁 to see if it is an insect or fungus or if the tree is deprived of Resources... was there a late freeze 🥶 etc... red oaks are popular because of the growth rate... but I favorite Oak is the Live Oak and i also love the White oak and water oak...
Mulch is great because if it’s organic it actually will breakdown and provide nutrients for the tree and soil around the tree (stayed away from dyed mulch use organic). Also befor applying the mulch out some compost down first this will feed the tree and throw out some granular fertilizer that has a slow release and will feed the tree for a few months... then apply your mulch on top of all of that... you can relocate one of the trees you have but this is best done in the fall of the tree is established. I recommend 35-40 feet spacing on those red oaks hope this helps. You can also consult an arborist in your area as well
@@crixustreeturf it does thank you for your time
Water is a water bag for the tree
Now, I'm questioning what i have learned. I've seen this done multiple times, but they bury the tree around the depth of the bucket. Interesting.
wish i knew a motivated guy to plant trees in our yard but nobody here wants to do stuff like that.. :/
Damn…..that’s how you do it.
There's no need to cut the roots, i just read in a journal that It just makes a diference in the first year of growing, the next years the tree grows as fast as if you dont cut them.
M Garcia ok I disagree with the journal. Container grown anything always cut the roots and rough up with root ball. This forces the tree to establish the roots. Forces the roots to reach out if you will.
Doesn’t even matter if your planting an azalea shrub or any other shrub plant or tree. If is container grown cut the roots.
And it does make a difference in the first year of growing. That’s the most critical year wouldn’t you agree? Lol that’s the only part of what you wrote I agree with.
@@crixustreeturf At long term both groups of trees that were compared, reached their potential.
I agree roots from container trees definitely need cut. If root bound, tree is likely to girdle itself.
Great tutorial. Been looking to plant a pair of shade trees here in Texas and gonna follow you advice. So what’s a good rule of thumb for distance from building structure and best time of year to plant them?
You know obviously you want shade for your structure. However you don’t have to plant the tree right next to the house …. Research the mature canopy dimensions and make your decision from there
Hey brother just bought a shumard oak tree and I’m about to plant it,,, I’m from Texas but I was curious about what you were saying about the pecan tree being there close to the shumard ,,,, is there anything wrong with having a pecan close to a shumard oak?? Asking bacause I do have some pecan trees that that I just planted as well (they’re little) thanks for the video !!
Jose DI’Maria hey!! The reason why I mentioned that that pecan tree there we had a large limb die. Actually planted that red oak very close to the pecan tree because the client is gonna take it out this year ... it’s meant to replace that pecan tree... with your trees allow for enough room for the canopy to have sufficient sunlight red oaks have a 50-60 ft spread and can grow 80’. Just plant your tree high 6-8” is my recommendation personal I like 8 :) add a lot of soil around it. But I don’t know of a problem having pecans in the same area as oaks.
CriXus Turf Solutions awesome bro, it will help watching this video since I’m not much of a tree person but I do need to start growing some so my kids can have that shade from trees that I don’t have ,,, also just bought some autumn blaze maple ,, i will be planting them too ,,

👋 hello...
I'm so curious...
What if a storm.. you have a fruit tree split then it splintered and you were rooting a whole bunch and they rooted and they're in the same family as that tree and you tried grafted and putting it together?
It's amazing mother nature can do all that without humans help
Why can't you have an Oak tree next to a Pecan tree?
Um that pecan tree was struck by lighting and was taken out
@@crixustreeturf oh ok.
Bro you did all that hard work. What if it dies form oak wilt that would be a shame 😭😭
So do we stop planting trees in this world cause the possibility of those trees dying?
