July 15, 2016A.Possibly, it would depend on your location, type of tree, and its condition. Contact your local Cooperative Extension office to see what they would recommend.

November 15, 2016A.Topping or pruning off of a Pine Tree will not stop the upward growth of your trees.
A new branch will take over as a leader and the growth can be pretty quick.
You will need to continue to top the tree every few years.These cuts can create a site for disease.

Zone 7AQ.Pruning/cutting a pine tree
You say to only prune a pine in the spring, but what if I am making a winter wreath? I can't very well cut branches in the spring for a Christmas wreath. So what do you suggest?

Certified ExpertA.You can cut enough branches to make your wreath in the winter. That will be fine and won't damage the tree. For large-scale pruning where you will remove a larger proportion of the tree's branches, it's best to wait till spring.

May 15, 2017A.There is no way to stop the growth of trees.
I would suggest talking with your neighbor and checking with your city ordinances on property line planting.Was this answer useful?00 - Asked by

May 21, 2017A.Chewing pieces of wood is a classic canine pastime often encouraged by owners who throw sticks for their pet to fetch. While this activity may seem relatively harmless, it can be dangerous for your pet depending on the type of wood. Pine can contain natural and artificial toxins, depending on the source of the material. There is also a risk of internal injury from ingesting broken shards of wood, which can have life-threatening consequences.

May 19, 2017Q.Pine trees
I have about 30 Mondale pine trees. My neighbor seems to have grass and weeds growing because of a faulty sprinkler that floods and of course I get all the weeds and grass when the wind blows. I have tried to talk to him but he does not care. So I spray ground clear on the places that need it being careful not to spray to close to the trees. The weeds and grass along the side of the property line are so thick it is out of control. The only place it is bad is the wells where the water collects. It is on automatic sprinklers. Last time when I was home I actually dug up grass and dirt and threw it away, so a month later just as bad as it was. Find pine needles and drown them out, spray? or put a bedding? Thank you, Jonesy

May 19, 2017A.My best advice would be a regular scheduled application of weed control.
