He he he! Andrew Darling Thanks...I am not sure it is bull sheet...but for sure 10 cow sheet... I am removing most of it ASAP! I removed the wires also yesterday.Andrew Legg wrote:Neli,
Treasure the top of that tree and get it healthy. Good news is that if it's healthy it may well give you loads of new buds and branches. For me the problem with this tree is the length at constant taper. If you can get lots of low buds, reducing it's height may be an option to think about. Oh, and I'd remove the boolsheet for a bit while it is recovering. That's quite a load you've dumped on there! Also consider removing the wire until the plant is showing vibrance once more.
Cheerio,
Andrew
Andrew I suspect my gardener was letting the water to run on top...and not go down...it was sliding over the bull's commodity.
