Tree Care

For example, they are more likely to maintain proper form and growth if the particular planting, pruning, spraying and watering needs are met. Contributors typically want to know about a tree's planting depth and width, potential pests and stresses, pruning and watering schedules, and treatment options.

How does kudzu take nutrients from trees?
It is by invading arboreal space and killing woody plants that kudzu takes nutrients from trees.
Specifically, the climbing, coiling, trailing vine in question (Pueraria spp) carries the additional common name of Japanese arrowroot. It exhibits aggressive, invasive behavior by setting speedy records at establishing roots and growing shoots. It operates by covering the tree from root to crown in a layer of kudzu which cuts off sunlight exposure, impedes photosynthetic activity, and obstructs nutrient intake. The result will be death by starvation and strangulation.

Your yucca plant is too tall can you cut it?
Yes, you can cut it. When a Yucca is cut off, it will generally form a new growth at the cut point, and sometimes more than one, resulting in a "fork," or branching. Also, very interestingly, if you strip the blades from the lower 12 inches, or so, of the cut off piece, and allow to air dry a few days to allow the cut or torn spots to "heal," or scab over, and THEN plant that cut off piece, it will take root, and you'll have another plant. I have used this technique many times to multiply my Yucca plants. I have been told that if the planting is done before the cut/damaged edges have dried out/sealed, that bacteria in the soil will get into the plant and cause it to rot and die. However, I'm not sure this part is correct because many times when I have pruned of the tops, and then simply threw them onto one of my compost piles, without any special treatment or help they took root and grew!!!!! Also, if the part you cut off is very long, you can cut it into several pieces, and plant them, gaining several plants from the one cutting.
What does fungi's eating habit have to do with the earths decomposing?
Fungi play a crucial role in the Earth's decomposition process by breaking down organic material, such as dead plants and animals, into simpler compounds. This helps to recycle nutrients back into the soil, which in turn supports the growth of new plants. Fungi possess enzymes that can break down complex molecules that other organisms cannot, making them essential decomposers in many ecosystems.
