Great video Peter. I'm just moving into the world of pines having just bought some nursery white pine stock. I was rather nervous, as there is so much complicated and contradictory information about pines, but this has really helped me. My biggest fear was about controlling the growth and troublesome backbudding, but this has given me much more confidence. The final thought about the candles being equivalent to new shoots on a deciduous tree was particularly helpful. Thank you very much!

i really appreciate your time in educating the lay person on the subject. What is really helpful is understanding what one is doing when pruning and for every action you will get an opposite reaction. Very well done when one understands the who what when were and why of the care in these trees. Your much appreciated, as I have formed 2 Japanese gardens on my property in Washington State in the USA, and needles are worked on each year. I dig your garden!!!
