Many gardeners have problems cutting down trees, but not because they don't know how to do it.

A common reason for refusal is a banal emotional attachment to the tree into which so much effort and labor was invested.

But there are certain signs that indicate the urgency of this unpleasant event.

Let's pay attention to the recommendations of the expert of the online publication "Belnovosti" and scientist agronomist Anastasia Kovrizhnykh.

When should a tree be cut down?

  1. The tree is noticeably leaning, indicating that it may have serious root system problems.
  2. Deep cracks. Either heal these "wounds" or cut them down, as the tree will dry out anyway.
  3. Large swellings. Usually rotting wood is hidden under such growths.
  4. They do not grow in height. This is a serious sign of the tree's death.
  5. No fruit. It is more advisable to clear the area of a tree that does not bring any benefit.
