How do you move a large crepe myrtle planted too close to foundation with wires above? What would you suggest please?
@windyknolllandmaintenance1993 Жыл бұрын
That’s a loaded question. Depends on how close. Crapes are a fibrous plant and very forgiving of done at the right time. Mid fall to early mid winter is the best time. The roots will build even though the leaves are off. You would not want to do this if the ground is frozen or will freeze within a 2 weeks of planting

Thanks for this whole series. I’ll need to watch the 2nd one a couple more times but you did a good job making something this complex more understandable. My question is how safe of an assumption is it to treat your entire property (say 1-2 acres) based off of a soil test? In other words, how much variance in soil condition can there be within a certain area?
@windyknolllandmaintenance19935 жыл бұрын
So there can actually be a lot of variance. Take the average yard. The results are only as good as the sampling. Remember you are trying to average 2,000,000 pounds of soil if you take samples up to 6" deep. The more samples the more accurate the average. 1,000,000 pound for a 3". Research the term plow furrow slice to understand this more. But I Digress. So the average yard they recommend 4 individual soil samples for each quadrant assuming a square yard. You would be surprised the difference just in that. Then if you have a troubled spot you sample just that spot by itself. In large Farming this is why the GPS guided tractors have increased the yields. They take samples on grids. Then they apply the nutrients based on the results of the grids. Sorry for the lengthy answer but it is actually a lengthy topic. I may actually add a video to the end of this series discussing it. Thanks for the idea :)

@@windyknolllandmaintenance1993 Anyways it is what it is. Dogwood is our provinces official flower and the native trees are covered by a tree protection order. This means developers can't cut them down and must work around them. The city puts a deposit on your building permit, if you finish building and the street trees and any protected species are not damaged, you get your money back. Thanks to old fashion horticultural work folks with large nurseries have selected individuals that aren't so effected by disease and drought and propagated them. Just the same as turf scientists do, find that plant that is still doing well when others around it die. You are fortunate that this is not necessary in your location because of your use of chemicals. We use other means to reduce disease as well, encouraging air flow by pruning, and making sure to not over fertilize.
