so, if you can do that with a collected tree then surely it can be done with a healthy nursery tree and from my experience yes you can and if i want to carve them up straight after i could do that too. and they dont skip a beat. why? well because most nursery trees have an abundance of fibrous roots. its the roots what power the tree and make it healthy. ive demonstrated this with hornbeams over and over, i dont even need to post an example. that would be three insults without the tree even batting an eyelid. was this tree 'pushed to its limits' erm well no because it powered on for the rest of the season!
from what ive learnt, the size of the root ball will heavily determine how hard you can push a tree, so lets not blow stuff out of context guys.
from my observations that also applies to collected material. most dont collect trees with near enough root and often trees teeter on the edge for months, i see that a lot on here.
