Tree Tone is for planting and feeding shade, fruit, and ornamental trees. For proper growth, trees should be fed twice yearly: once in the spring and once in the fall for beautiful trees all year long. One pound equals approx. three cupfuls.
New Plantings:
Dig a hole twice as wide and the same depth as the root ball.
Discard 1/2 of the soil and replace with compost, peat moss, or humus.
Mix Tree-tone in the amended soil as follows:
Trunk Diameter |
Amount of Tree-tone |
Up to 1.5 inches |
4 lbs. total
|
2-3 inches
|
4 lbs. per inch
|
Over 3 inches
|
5 lbs. per inch
|
Feeding Established Trees:
Trees should be fed twice each year: in early Spring before growth starts and in Fall after leaves drop but before ground freezes. Use the following rates:
Trunk Diameter |
Amount of Tree-tone |
Up to 3 inches |
3 lbs. per inch
|
3-6 inches
|
4 lbs. per inch
|
Over 6 inches
|
6 lbs. per inch
|
Feed small trees by spreading Tree-tone on the ground that is under and slightly beyond the branch spread. Feed large trees (over 6” trunk diameter) as follows:
Make a series of 3 inch wide holes, 12 -18 inches deep, 2-3 feet apart, under the drip line of the tree (outer edges of branches).
Divide the Tree-tone evenly and pour into holes.
Backfill holes with soil and water thoroughly.
