I have a japanese black pine that I pruned in the traditional stages in early July (weak, then strong buds).
What should I do (if anything) to the "secondary" buds and candles that have grown from the July pruning. Some of them are just opening needles; others are tiny buds.
The pine is young and still needs lots of ramification, growth and thickening. It is planted in a Vance Wood training container. I live in Georgia so I won't have frost until late October or early November.
I appreciate your advice on how to treat a black pine in the fall.
