Not gingko suckers - too thin and not having gingko leaves.Here is my ginkgo 19yrs old from seed.
Could somebody tell me about those suckers? They have been popping out this year and doesn't even look like ginkgo suckers. Will they help to build nebari or better to keep removing?

If they are equisetum then you just have to keep removing them. They are spread by spores but grow from a rhizome under the soil. You'd have to get that out when you repot. Very cool tree!
Shade...peculiar. I've always kept mine in full sun. I think cultivar helps to a degree. I've always read they do poorly in shade. Things that need sun and don't get enough usually have larger leaves and longer internodes.Nice Ginko, clumps are particularly attractive to me. How to reduce leave size? it seems that shade in spring helps? plz notice small leaves on the shaded backside in my picture.

Peculiar...I guess mine gets sun. I don't turn mine...there is an ugly scar on the back. Yet...the leaves are all about the same. It receives afternoon sun and it's hitting it pretty hard. So it must be the reason. I think of when I didn't have the appropriate lighting for indoors with my bougie. It got larger leaves...and large internodes in winter months. Everything I have heard...was ginkgo in full sun. I had it in morning sun previous years...and this year the leaves are much smaller than previous years. (((Shrugs))) Mine thrives in full afternoon sun. Smaller leaves than morning sun. So, the idea of shade...I don't see it beneficial.Yes, I still think the same about full sun but I forgot to turn my Ginkgo around leaving the backside (photo with many small leaves) facing north. The front which was facing the south doesn't have those...
Posted this one several posts back. It’s still in its nursery container and soil. Waiting to plant in the ground next year. Overall seems healthy, but the leaves are a bit off colored. Iron deficiency? Over watering? View attachment 249862View attachment 249863
Could also be too much sun.... Sun burn if it is in sunny and hot spot.Posted this one several posts back. It’s still in its nursery container and soil. Waiting to plant in the ground next year.
