I-Trees Conference and more

Good day to you all

I have had another enjoyable week on Monday I attended the I-Trees conference at North Parramatta learning how this programmes works and its benefits, these benefits I will now be offering to my clients.

The rest of the week I attended several sites assessing inspection trees for some new and existing clients it is always nice to meet new clients. The photo is of one tree I assessed this week

This coming week is also looking to be another interesting week starting with Monday where I will be using the Picus Sonic Tomograph to assess 2 trees. Then on Tuesday I will be attending the University of Western Sydney Hawkesbury campus at Richmond to get shown around their EucFACE site to learn about the studies they are doing their if allowed I will get some photos for next weeks Blog

With Christmas near I have completed my first Newsletter that I will send out to my current clients if you wish to receive this please contact me.

Company Updates

Mulch should be a depth of 50mm to 75mm not enough and it will not stop unwanted plants/weeds from growing and to deep then air will not penetrate to your trees/plants root systems smothering them. The mulch should never be put next to tree/plants trunk/stems as this can burn them and or ring bark them with decay rot. Enjoy your Trees and gardens.

Good day now the rain has come and we have fertilised out gardens it is time to mulch. The benefit of mulching around our trees and gardens are plenty. Mulch is a good soil conditioner improving most soils over time including heavy clays, can stop the growth of unwanted plants/weeds and can over time help compacted soils.

Good day after many months of dry weather I have looked at the weather forecast and we may get some nice rain over the next 3 to 4 days with this forecast it is an ideal time to fertilise your gardens, plants, shrubs, fruit trees and trees and let the rain soak the fertiliser into the soil. Also Sealsol and other seaweed products are not a fertiliser but root stimulator which is good for stressed trees and new plantings.

Good day last night I attended a BIZNET function up at Katoomba the company was good with plenty of food and drinks wine beer soft drink. If you are not a member then you should consider joining to help improve and grow your business or just to meet new people.

Over the past two weeks I have been requested by many clients in the fire affected areas to assess their beloved trees and with recommendations on how these trees can be saved and be kept for many more years.

Fire damaged trees and shrubs may not have been killed by fire and with some care may be saved to continue to provide many more years of pleasure and value before removing and replacing ...it is more cost affective and come summer the hot weather the existing trees will provide valuable shade.
