This webinar will delve into common misconceptions around urban trees and soils. An important aspect of integrated pest management is the use of cultural practices to prevent future pest issues. Urban trees and soils put a spotlight on these practices as decisions around design, planting, and maintenance can impact future pest problems and, ultimately tree survivability. Our expert will discuss organic matter versus compost needs, mycorrhiza treatments, soil screening, soil installation, and protective tree grates.
