When trimming a cedar hedgeWhat's better than a cedar hedge to preserve your privacy from your neighbours? Nevertheless, these trees grow very quickly and therefore require annual maintenance. Our specialists at Emondage Boucherville have the required know-how. By using our services, you can be sure that your hedge is well maintained, to the point of being the envy of those around you.
Do you doubt the necessity of an annual pruning? Don't you want a well-stocked hedge that looks good, like everyone else? It's good to know, however, that a cedar hedge is not trimmed just anytime in a year. The ideal time is when buds begin to appear. More precisely, the best time for cedar pruning is between July 1st and September 15th. However, one small precaution: avoid having your hedge trimmed in hot weather. It is true that this interval is still quite short. One way to make sure you don't miss it is to make an annual appointment in advance. Better still, by agreeing on a specific, recurring period when we will go each year to trim your hedge, you can then no longer have to worry about missing it: the annual maintenance of your cedar hedge will take place without you having to worry about it anymore. |

The success of a trim
Our team avoids pruning the side branches of hedges that are still young. This is because it is advisable to wait until they have reached the desired height before starting the pruning of the top branches.
Did you also know that preferably a new shoot should not be cut more than a third of its length? Of course, it is possible to go a little harder, by removing up to half of it. But what is certain is that more should not be removed, because if you go too far, the development of the trees would be compromised.

Formation trimming
Do you know the size of the training? This technique is designed to give a specific look to a tree. However, it is a process that can take years to achieve the desired results. So it is best to start it while a tree is still young. But why is that?
First of all, a tree may need to be straightened. This can take years. In addition, cutting down a tree causes scars, the healing time of which depends on the size of the branches involved. If it takes too long, problems can then arise. This is why an early start is a guarantee of increased success, since it reduces the risk of complications.
Fruit trees can also benefit from training pruning. This technique can increase fruit production. Our seasoned staff has the know-how regarding fruit trees in Quebec. They will know which pruning to associate with which tree, at what time of the year to proceed, depending on the growth stage of the tree in question.
It is also possible to use a training pruning in order to design a nice shaded area or to create a zone free of branches by removing those at the bottom of a tree in order to create a relaxation area, among other possibilities.
Rest assured that meeting your expectations is a constant concern of our staff, including, as with other services, training size.
