    How to hard prune/pollard mesquite?

    I demo’d one in the back a while back. Forgot pic I guess. I told them some of the leaders on the other didn’t look good. Sure enough… …ported 75cc a bit much but that’s what I had in the truck,

    How to hard prune/pollard mesquite?

    Man lift wouldn’t work this morning, did it the hard way, pole saw from the truck. Two big branches in the bed first, butt ends out. Pile everything on top, cut small once in the bed to take up less room. Then pulled it out at the shop to dry until NYE bonfire. The trees look pretty scraggly...

    How to hard prune/pollard mesquite?

    Yes, and must be started when the tree reaches desired size and then maintained yearly I believe. They do it here a lot of fruitless mulberries.

    How to hard prune/pollard mesquite?

    That’s what I don’t know. I usually go half of whatever bid someone has… really I leave it up to them as gratuity. I hate to have them get a bid just for me to low bid it. I don’t know of any legit tree companies around here, but…

    How to hard prune/pollard mesquite?

    So current plan is remove the rear ones (last pics) and reduce the fronts (first pics). I will have a towable man lift and I think I will get a Telehandler, forklift with stinger, or longer gin poles on my truck to pluck the rear ones out mostly whole, try to keep it quick and easy with...

    How to hard prune/pollard mesquite?

    Maybe start a little slow and then prune them back more next year. Lady wants them real short but that’s asking to kill them, and if that’s the plan I’ll just remove them.

    How to hard prune/pollard mesquite?

    Lots of fussing about in the lift with the 2511. Based on what I see breaking, need to lace it out, remove one of each of all the crossed/redundant limbs. Then reduce length by 1/3 to 1/2. Yeah, not tackling that in the summer…I hate limbing and trimming. Only reason I’m doing it is because...
