🌳 Why Are My Trees Dying? Here's a Real-Life Example. 🌳
We recently got a call from a customer who was heartbroken—several of their trees were dying, and they didn’t know why. Sound familiar? You’re not alone.
After inspecting the property, we found a couple of major issues:
âś… The trees had been planted with their burlap sacks still on (a big no-no)
✅ They were being overwatered by the gallon every day—a common problem, especially in clay-heavy soil like we have here in Central Kansas
Believe it or not, overwatering is more common than underwatering in our area. Clay soil holds onto moisture, which can suffocate roots if not managed properly.
Here’s what we did:
✔️ Removed the trees that couldn’t be saved
✔️ Replanted the salvageable ones the right way
✔️ Installed healthy new trees with proper soil prep and watering guidance
