Consider giving trees a boost with fertilizers to ensure their health in urban areas. Deep Root Fertilizing is the process of injecting essential minerals and nutrients into the soil around trees to help them grow strong and healthy for the long term.
Why Do Your Trees Need Deep Root Fertilization?
In urban areas, there can be a lack of natural sources of nutrients.
In urban areas, there can be a lack of natural sources of nutrients. Growing healthy trees in urban soil conditions can be a real challenge. Whenever you clean up leaves, grass clippings or branches, their contributions to the soil are also removed. Of course, you wouldn’t want a messy yard, as it can invite pests and other hazards and be an eyesore.
This is why fertilizing trees from the root system can work wonders. You provide your trees and shrubs with enough essential nutrients and protect them from insects and diseases. At the same time, you can maintain your backyard’s beauty and cleanliness.
Deep Root Fertilization In Action
Fertilizing the roots of a young tree may be as simple as putting the right mixture beneath the soil. However, giving more mature trees the nutrients they need requires a little bit more effort.
Our deep-root fertilization process involves injecting a soil needle into the surrounding areas of the tree roots. We will then release a mixture of water and fertilizer at high pressure, spreading it within the root zone.
This way, the fertilizer reaches the deepest roots of the tree. It also reduces the risk of compacted soil that can suffocate tree roots.
How Often Should You Fertilize Trees?
Providing deep root fertilizer in the Spring can boost tree growth for the coming Summer when they’re most productive. In the Fall, the tree fertilizer helps your greenery store enough nutrients for winter.
The Benefits Of Deep Root Fertilization
Here are some of the reasons why Deep Root Fertilization should be part of your tree healthcare checklist:
- Deep Root Fertilizers can increase the tree’s growth rate, especially when starting from a young age.
- Fertilizers can improve the flowering and colour of foliage, resulting in more beautiful trees and shrubs.
- Fertilizers can fortify the tree’s immunity to pests and tree diseases.
- A boosted root growth strengthens the tree’s defences against Southern Ontario’s harsh weather conditions and other damage.
- The use of a soil probe reduces soil compaction and promotes soil aeration.
- Deep Root Fertilization also helps balance the alkalinity of the soil, promoting the good health of your trees and shrubs.
- Aiming straight for the tree’s roots, Deep Root Fertilization provides a quick and efficient method of delivering the fertilizer’s benefits to a tree.
