I've got three trees that have grown to a point that I may actually have to start doing something with them, but all I've done so far is watering and feeding.
1. Bald cypress. Grown just this season from a pencil to about 1 and quarter inch. I plan to repot into a much larger contain er next year. My question on this one: let it grow or chop to start building taper. If so, when is the good time to chop?
2. Trident maple. Grown from seed. Now it is about inch and 3/4. Planted on a rock (will decide if I want to keep it on the rock when repotting - rock might be too small). Question on this one is the same as on BC. Chop or wait?
3. Juniper. Just rescued this one in the spring from underneath a wire fence at work. It had been weedwacked for years. Still pretty beat up but healing. Question: how do I overwinter? Should I plan to move it into a larger grow box in the spring or a shalow trainer pot?
