That’s a lot, finally learned the difference between a thinning cut vs reduction cut.

So glad you found it usefull!

your video is exactly the same as what I've been saying for years. I also live in AZ and it seems like most tree services in az do the thinning method and leave these 20 ft long leaders with no branches until the very end and they wonder why in a thunderstorm why the trees break. Its creating a cantilever where all the weight is at the end. hold a 6ft long stick and put a 20 pound weight at the end. its going to be very difficult to hold.. same thing happens with a tree

Well said!

Thank you very much for this information! Most landscapers just do a one-size-fits all trimming on Palo Verde. When i went to Paris i’ve seen big differences on designs if its mostly an arborist who cuts the tree vs if its a landscaper. So i decided to be the one trimming my tree and i’m following your tips.

Love the informative video! Do reduction cuts still allow the tree to grow wider/longer while strengthening the limb?

@ArboristAdvice

5 ай бұрын

Yes! Growing wider or longer without breaking is what Reduction cuts accomplish. Thinning cuts (taking branches off of leaders/taking out the middle) lead to fast growing weak length which leads to breakage.

Very nice vdo

Great video. I have a young Chilean thorn less mesquite that got so much water this year its growing so fast that the main branch leading from the trunk is toppling over. Can I trim this main branch back? I've heard trimming young mesquites isn't ideal but its turning into a bush and all the branches are practically touching the ground.

It is true that you must be cautious when it comes to pruning young trees. Remember, less is more. So, instead of taking an entire limb, make a reduction cut.

thanks :) might have to call you .

I've got an older 30-40ft chilean mesquite. I have some larger above ground roots. I'd like to remove some of these roots without killing or seriously weakening the tree. What do you think?

@ArboristAdvice

Roots, in addition to providing moisture and nutrients to the tree, also tie the tree to the ground. If this is a small tree that poses no hazard to anything and you are not attached to it then I say cut away knowing that the tree could completely or paritially die or fall over. But, if the tree falling over is a hazard then don't cut the roots. In any case, the further away from the trunk a root is cut the less chance it will harm the tree. There may be other solutions depending on why you want to cut the roots. You can grind concrete smooth if roots are popping it up. You can install decking over roots that are a trip hazard. You can use a lintel for a wall rather than footer where roots are.

I need long straight trunks.

Hi Angelo, I will be doing some reduction cuts on my mesquite. I bought a pole trimmer with a saw blade, can you suggest a hand saw brand like you got, there are many out there , I’m trying to buy a good one. Thank you.

If you havn't got one already, I very much like "Corona" brand. There are others but you can usually find Corona in most hardware stores.

When I trim my mesquite tree it always develops a bunch of new branches around the cut. How do you prevent this?

@ArboristAdvice

More than likely it is due to you leaving a stub. If you are making a thinning cut then cut at the visible branch collar. If you are making a reduction cut then here is a video showing where to cut at 1:58. kzread.info/dash/bejne/g5qWuK6GXb3Ho84.html

My mesquite have peeling bark. I also noticed it has some kind of growth on it. Like a thin branch bush/plant! It gets salmon colored bulbs all over it (like salmon eggs!) Gross!!! Help I ripped all that off and cut off dry broken branches. These have been here for a while woth sand billedup all over the ground. They're beautifully green right now - spring 2023, but peeling bark. I'm concerned they're dry.

Mesquite bark that is older tends to peel and curl up or to the side. The growth is mistletoe. Keep removing it while trying not to remove the limbs it is on. Good luck!

I need some help. And I can't find anyone dealing with what I need. First the situation. I have several mesquite plants that are growing wild. For this a plant is 4 foot tall. With several off shoot from the roots. This making the plants a good 10 feet across. I've had these for over 10 years. They don't get bigger. And I have many. I rather have a single tree that grows at least 10 to 15 feet tall and produces maximum pods. .... I've already experienced and found the pods are a good add to feed. They can't be used alone. But added to feed. Understand that I have hundreds of these plants. And as they are. They produce little. It would be better if instead of getting 1/4 lbs of pods from a plant cluster. I can get several pounds per tree. Plus having the trees would be nice. Since I have no trees. So how do I thin the bushes into trees? Also, I think that if I thin the bushes. Then they will have more water per tree.

I'm hoping you live in Tucson so you can schedule a class with me regarding ANSI pruning standards. By the end of the class you will have a great functional understanding of the big picture and what cuts to make and especially what cuts not to make. It is info that is not common sense but once you know it, it completely makes sense. Please get my contact info from RomeoTreeService.com If you are not in Tucson, i'd be happy to speak with you over the phone.
