Appreciate the video. In NJ, EAB is wreaking havoc on central jersey... I collected some white ash keys to hopefully plant some in the spring with the news of that wasp spreading.
I did, from 'helicopters' wintered on the tree, spouts out quickly but ALL after few months became weak and dried to death. I used different soil and fertilizers.... Is it important not to mess cycle winter/summer for ashes? What a mistake I did? Or just seeds bad or infected? The same with oaks ((
ive been growing an ash for about 3 years now and growing fast! But now that our big ash died from EAB im wondering if i should just cut this one down and save our selves the money of a tree service later on. What should i do!?
I wouldn't cut it down, dead trees (snags) can be beneficial for many other native insects and birds. Even having it "treated" isn't going to be very beneficial and will most likely do nothing to contain EAB and kill the beneficial insects that you want. If I were you, I'd collect the seeds and plant them if you have any nearby. Only way we're beating EAB is by planting and growing seeds that have built up generational immunity to the pest itself.
I've got a white ash in a pot that's been living inside. We'd like to plant it outside, but our town does have EAB, so we don't want to doom it. Can it grow inside for a while? Right now it's about four feet tall and needs a bigger pot. We're trying to do our best by it.
The younger trees are safe for now. The beetles lay eggs on the more substantial trees (2 inch or larger diameter) Their larvae can’t burrow into a small sapling and feed on it, as there isn’t enough cambium layer there for them to feed on. I have a small stand of young white ash here in Connecticut that are doing well so far.

Awesome! I hope more people start growing Ash trees like this! …as this species, is to beautiful to be endangered.

This makes me feel better, i've got some ash growing, and I was worried they were growing too slow

Seedlings are very sensitive to fertilizer, just plant em in soil and leave them alone until they're like a year old
When would be the best time to treat them for the EAB? I’m going to be growing my own soon.
I wonder can this tree be planted in a hot country like Philippines

i would have it treated for EAB

Would it hurt of you put your soil inside of a fridge with the seeds?
