1 Basic Pruning Techniques Derek Sokoloski & Mark Loveall Colorado State Forest Service March 2, 2017
2 Attention The following pruning information and instructions are designed for small to medium sized pruning jobs For above ground work where a chainsaw is needed, or for tree removal: the work should be done by a ISA Certified Arborist with adequate liability insurance International Society of Arboriculture,
3 Why Prune? (Specify Your Objectives) Safety Concerns: people, traffic, property, infrastructure Builds a strong and lasting structure Enhances vigor and long-term health Improves tree aesthetics Enhances or maintains designated function
4 Public Safety Are conifers the best choice along streets?
5 Public Safety It pays to research species and their growth habits
6 Establish Branch Structure 8 feet 8 feet 2001 Street Trees: 8 feet over sidewalks and 13½ feet over streets 2005
7 Establish a Leader Codominant Top Choose the most vigorous of the 2 One cut to restore the lead
8 Issue: Included Bark Result: a weak branch attachment and potential failure
9 Issue: Dead Wood Remove ASAP, regardless of season!
10 Issue: Stubs Remove at any time. Stubs invite insects and diseases into the tree.
11 Issue: Suckers Remove suckers from their point of origin on the root and avoid creating stubs!
12 Issue: Water Sprouts Often occur because of excessive pruning!
13 Questions to be Answered Why are you pruning? What are the types of pruning? How do you prune correctly? When is the best time of year? Where do you start?
14 Thinning Selective removal of branches to increase light penetration and air movement through the crown Reduce weight of heavy branches Too much thinning can result in production of water sprouts
15 Crown Cleaning Selective removal of dead, diseased, broken, or weakly attached branches from a tree crown Regular pruning will correct small problems before they become large problems
16 Raising Remove lower branches to provide clearance for buildings, signs, vehicles, or pedestrians Avoid excessive removal of lower branches while tree is still young! Lower branches are important in the development of trunk taper and the structural stability of the whole tree
17 Crown or Branch Reduction Used to reduce or redirect a tree away from an object Limb is pruned back to its point of origin or back to a lateral capable of assuming dominance Power companies use this type of pruning Right tree, right place planning to avoid future problems!
18 Structure Restoration Trees that have been topped, sustained storm or vandal damage or have not been pruned The selective removal of sprouts and branches to create a desired tree structure The removal of all stubs and dead branches Restoration usually requires several years of pruning
19 Questions to be Answered Why are you pruning? What are the types of pruning? How do you prune correctly? When is the best time of year? Where do you start?
20 Pruning Tools
21 Pruning Tools Image source: farmerfredrant.blogspot.com Bypass are pruners superior to anvil pruners!
22 How Much to Prune? Regardless of pruning method remove no more than 25% of the total foliage in one season.
23 Honor the Branch Collar The collar is formed by overlapping branch and trunk tissue which makes the branch union very strong.
24 Honor the Branch Bark Ridge Bark that has been pushed up into a ridge as the branch and trunk grow. Indicates a strong branch attachment.
25 Three-Step Pruning Process When branch diameter > 1 inch Three Step Process prevents the weight of the branch from tearing bark off the trunk: 1. First Cut ¼ to ⅓ through underside of branch 2. Second Cut Above first cut and all the way through branch. This cut will leave a stub. 3. Third Cut Remove remaining stub. Do not cut into the branch collar or branch bark ridge.
26 Three-Step Pruning Process Cut UP 2. Cut DOWN 3. Cut OFF (remove stub) Not always a defined collar, look for swelling
27 Three-Step Pruning Process DO NOT VIOLATE THE THREE-STEP PROCESS FOR LARGE BRANCHES! If three step limb removal is not followed, the weight of the branch will tear the bark off the tree resulting in a larger wound The first step in the three step process is the undercut and it will prevent this from occurring
28 Callus Wood Circular callus wood = good wound closure Oval callus wood = pruning cut was made too close to the trunk
29 Included Bark vs. Branch Bark Ridge Included bark is bark that is squeezed between two stems
30 Included Bark vs. Branch Bark Ridge V U Image source: treedictionary.com Image source: Ed Gilman Included bark is bark that is squeezed between two stems
31 Included Bark Failures Image source: lukenstree.com/blog
32 Included Bark Solution Remove included branch early and restore central leader
33 Pruning Don ts: Flush Cutting Inside the branch collar is the Branch Protection Zone This zone has chemical and physical properties that slow or stop the spread of decay into the trunk Image source: Joseph O'Brien, USDA Forest Service, Bugwood.org Flush cutting removes this protection zone and allows decay inside the tree
34 Branch bark ridge Collar Collar: area where a branch joins another branch created by overlapping vascular tissues from both the branch and the trunk. This area has chemically and physically modified tissue that retards decay. Ed Gilman University of Florida, Horticulture
35 Pruning Don ts: Flush Cutting Trees react poorly to injuries such as flush cuts or torn branches
36 Pruning Don ts: Leaving Stubs Branch stubs provide entry points for insects and diseases to attack and damage the tree.
37 Pruning Don ts: Topping Topping trees promotes bad branch structure and allows decay into the wounds Image source: greensboro-nc.gov
38 Pruning Don ts: Single Cutting A permanent wound has been needlessly created and may well allow disease to enter the main stem of this tree.
39 Pruning Don ts: Postponing
40 Timing: Winter vs. Spring (Spring snow crabapple)
41 Timing: Other Considerations Winter (dormant) Pruning: Tree pests less active Avoid pruning when trees are: 1) Emerging from dormancy in the spring (bud break) 2) Entering dormancy in the fall (leaves turning color) (Spring snow crabapple)
