There are certain seasons that compound the problem when it comes to looking after trees.
One such grueling season for trees is the summer season when the high temperature & humidity take their toll on trees.
Here are some tips that will help you in taking care of your trees during the grueling summer months.
Using mulch will help the young trees by making the roots capable of holding moisture for a long time.
You should start applying mulch to the root area as this will also help in developing a strong root system for your trees.
Besides that, the water that is retained by the root will counter the dry days of summer.
Heat stress is a very dangerous thing for your trees & you might see them drooping, wilting leaves, & leaves turning yellow.
You must immediately provide sufficient water to your trees as it will help them recover quickly.
Moreover, proper cooling and shading are also important for your trees as they will save them from heat stress.
Continuous walking and activities around the trees degrade the soil cover and after years the surface of the roots might get exposed.
While mulch is very effective in providing a temporary barrier against people coming near your trees.
However, you must think about a long-term solution and erect a barrier to protect your trees & their roots.
