done as soon as the new
shoots have made their full
length so that thejr'can push
new buds for the following
season’s growth.
Farrand recommended wait
ing until the transplants have
been in the field about three
years before starting to shear
in order to prevent too dense
growth of the tree since the
shearing must be done each
year and each shearing
makes the tree thicker.
“If the top leader grows
more than f 10 inches before
the tree is three years old, it
should be cut back to ten in
ches or a hollow spot will
develop in -the tree.” Farrand
said But he cautioned again
st removing'too much of the
growth ffom a very yoimg
tree.
In general all shearing of
pine trees should be done
between Juge 1 and July 15.
The new growth is usually
completed .when the-needles
on the shoot are evenly
spaced, and the buds at the
tip are well,formed.
The general proceedure for
shearing pines, - according to
Farrand is to cut out nil mul
tiple top leaders and shorten
the top leader back to about
10 inches Cut the top later
als four indies shorter than
the leader. Cut the side ter
minals ai}d>. other strong
branches with",-the aim of
producing "the' desired taper
to the tree.'. -
Be careful- that the lower
side branches' are not cut
back too severely since they
grow slowgr than the top
leader and ,a cylinder rather
than a conicjal shape may be
produced, Farrand cautioned.
Spruce and Fir trees
should be sheared between
August 1 and April 1 begin
ning about-the fourth or the
fifth year in the field and
following -similar practices
as with pines.
Far rand recommended the
use of sharp hedge shears
well oiled and free from
pitch and dirt. He suggested
that growers check the bal
ance of trees and try to cor
rect the shape gradually.
Finally, fie said, it is’the
customer who dictates how
the tree should be sheared.
