Health and vigor can defend against stress, disease, insect infestation and even in some cases damaging cultural practices. The goal is to use the most effective products available and educate the public on the after care. The way to achieve this is by using the new technology that is available to us. Systemics and organic products that are cost effective, efficient, and have low impact on the environment. A customized plan for your property is required since everyone has special concerns and different situations. Current programs offer a wide range of tree care that require many sprays, fertilizations and charges that are now deemed unnecessary and outdated. Many pests have aquired a resistance to spray products to point where they have little affect. With the new techniques and chemistry all these needs can be incorporated into one treatment, a treatment that will cover the entire growing season, killing damaging insects while at the same time upgrading health.
The benefits are massive when soil injection treatment is compared to a spray/fert. program.
SPRAY/FERT. PROGRAM SOIL INJECTION TREATMENT
multiple foliar sprays one time treatment
multiple fertilizations one time treatment
limited residual growing season
non-target species affected no effect
multiple charges initial cost aerification
Plant Health Care will give you the biggest bang for your buck(soil injection ). An Arborist can afford you to not only discuss the benefits in detail of soil injection but explain the challanges of irrigating, pruning, and other needs required to best plan for their future.
As Arborist, we always come into contact with trees on a property that are out of their range. We call these special needs trees,and should be addressed for the simple fact homeowners expectations may not be reasonable. Desire for such plantings has increased over the years and this is alright if they understand the challanges it requires to care for such specimens. This will be discussed at a later time.
