January 13th-Pruning and other tips

This time of the year you might want to start thinking about pruning in 6-8 weeks. Late Feb and March. Here are some links to read to help you plan. Be sure to read the latest data on pruning. Research continues to change the way we prune. For example. Many now believe that leaving the suckers on the tree under the tree is ok because these branches help cool the tree in extreme heat. Have fun!
