When and what kind of fertilizer do you use on your pecan trees?

There is no quick answer. Start with a soil sample. The results of the soil sample test will help your fertilizer supplier provide a mix of all the nutrients needed. If you indicate what the soil sample is for (pecans), the test lab will also provide recommendations along with the results of the test. At least, mine does. As a rule of thumb, I've always heard that high-nitrogen fertilizer is needed. However, my recent soil sample test results suggest 1 pound of nitrogen per inch of trunk diameter applied at the dripline, 15 pounds per acre phosphates, and 60 pounds per acre potash. Along with the fertilizer, it is suggested that I apply 3000 pounds of lime per acre because my pH is only 5.1. Zinc is required for rapid and complete leaf growth from spring budbreak through June. There are foliar sprays available that contain zinc and nitrogen. For my orchard, the gameplan has been this: apply the foliar spray and broadcast the fertilizer (at least 16-16-16) around the dripline of each tree every two weeks until the soil nutrient levels are more satisfactory. Then, I will switch to a higher nitrogen level broadcast fertilizer and continue the foliar sprays until the end of July. This means another soil test is required to measure the effectiveness of the applications. I have not mentioned the application of pesticides or fungicides. In my part of Texas, these are also necessary. The application of these chemicals and the timing is important for certain destructive insects and diseases. Like I said, no quick answer.

What is the best food for the crape myrtle tree?

Fertilizers such as the conventional 5-10-5 or fish meal, which emphasize phosphorus [P] over nitrogen [N] and potassium [K], are what's needed when a crape myrtle [Lagerstroemia spp] grows in poor soils. Otherwise, such balanced commercial fertilizers as 10-10-10 or 30-30-30, may be used. Fertilizer may be applied as much as monthly during the growing season. But once established, after two years, there's usually no need to fertilizer more than once a year, in late fall or early spring.

It's important to follow directions, particularly if the selection turns to the slow release fertilizers that tend to be recommended in the tree's first growing season. It also is important to make sure that the fertilizer is applied evenly over the ground under the tree, out to the drip line. It's important too to make sure that the fertilizer application is followed by a good long drink of water before 10 a.m. or after 5 p.m. Without proper watering, the nutrients won't be in soluble form. Insoluble nutrients can't be taken in by plant roots.

Why do people like trees?

In attempting to answer this question, one must first try to determine the the original purpose of the question. I have submitted below two possible simple ansers for the question in hopes that one of the two will satisfy the original "intent" of the question.

a) Trees main use by man is for the purpose of construction and develpment of a society that is benificial to mankind. In this, understand that our first "advanced" modes of shelter, was in the form of logs or lumber as one might have it. To dwell on the reason would not only be foolish but a waste of time for the average individual.

b) Trees are usefull or should I say necessary for the continued existence of mankind in that stomata from the leaves of trees are the agents that take in our "waste" breath or Carbon Dioxide and convert it to oxygen that is necessary for all humans. Without this exchange among man and nature, our lives as we know it could not continue. You see, just as we need trees, so do trees need our exhaled respirations.
