Hey Guys,
I have a bunch of Pitch Pines I started training/growing this season, and I have been very happy to see good growth, horizontally trained root systems (they were all in nursery cans initially), and budding on low branches. I am really enjoying having some success working with this native species, but I had a couple questions:
1. I have seen some post some written about de-candling, but has anyone tried needle plucking to balance strength?
2. Anyone have success back budding
on branches? One of my trees back budded low on the trunk, but buds always seem to pop on branch tips for me the past few months.
