Best video I have watched. Good teacing
Very well done presentation. I particularly like that you got to the heart of each situation, stated your reasoning, and pointed out common errors to avoid.
This is the best video I've watched yet. Thanks for doing it. Just a few things I would disagree with. Water sprouts are generally induced to sprout because of the loss of vegetation. The tree produces them in order to make food through photosynthesis. In some cases a tree would starve if it could not produce water sprouts. A good example are Stone fruits which have limited capability of producing water sprouts. The average life of a Peachtree is only 9 years because they get over pruned and subsequently starve and die. Apple, willow trees and others are frequently over pruned and would starve if they were unable to produce water sprouts. In such a case if all the water sprouts were pruned off, the tree would once again produce a abundance of water sprouts to ward off starvation. A better option is to remove the worst of the water sprouts completely, and Whittle away the remaining water sprouts over a course of several years. Try to limit pruning to not removing more than 25 per-cent of a trees live vegetation. This will keep the tree healthy and vigorous. At the end of the video the comment was made that it's better to do something rather than nothing. I respectfully disagree. A bad haircut grows back, but a bad tree cut is forever. Even a neglected tree has natural grace and beauty, but an abused tree has often lost its grace and beauty and can become just as hazardous as a neglected tree. Thanks again for a very thorough and good video!
Very good video, many thanks.

Most of the time people are dealing with existing landscapes that so called professional landscapers and landscape designers installed years ago and are now overgrown. Additionally, most shrubs can survive a severe or radical prune and then with proper maintenance be kept under control.
Is directional pruning considered what is necessary to maintain electric lines or is it a management procedure?
And Anvil pruners are designed specifically for dead branches. They cut much cleaner. They're not designed for live tissue
Anvil pruners Crush both sides of the new wound. They should not be used on trees or shrubs. Bypass pruners Crush only the side that the Anvil is on and not the portion that you AR going to retain on the blade side of the pruners
CAN YOU POSSIBLY CHANGE THE SIZE AND COLOR OF THE MOUSE ON SCREEN. I CANT SEE WHERE YOU ARE MOVING IT. THANKYOU
So many conflicting opinions out there. I previously heard to prune in fall/winter when the sap isn’t flowing. This guy says not in the “*ber” months.
Can you make your cursor red and bigger?
How to prune poplar tree to make bushy? Because with every cut it produces many vertical water shoots.
Do not make bush
@@esmaistuu we don't have any good soil. We have something called brick soil its the broken parts of construction bricks and here i tried many local tree variety and only poplar grows well so i want more shade from poplar. Hope i can explain the situation here. I seen some poplar trees wide spread if prune it like leave 4 to 6 branches one feet apart then it will be bushy. Can you guide some about it because if prune it from any part it send so many water sprouts.
Or just leave few branches and dont prune further so they will compete and grow well.
@@MohsinRaza-ii6fm i mean if you have space for a large tree you dont really need to prune that much.
@@esmaistuu but i seen if grow in single stem it grows like 20 meter in my area and no shadow. We need shadow from poplar that's the goal for pruning and i need info about that
You should show a pic and then do a video demonstration that would keep most people from falling asleep just saying
I was on board until you said AND typed the Worse thing you can do. You kidding me? Show this to any 4th grader and they'll tell you it's the worst thing...
I thought this was going to be a live video you need to make videos on actually showing people how you're doing it this helps me none
Although it doesnt show any demonstrations of how to prune, it gives technical information which I find is very helpful. It answers more when, why, and what, questions.
