pruning smoke bush into smoke tree
Comments (35)THANK YOU Brandon for an answer to the pruning question!!!! Will be sure to keep the cuts above ground level!! And to clarify what you and Ken are saying about a view to the utility boxes- ...actually, forget it... I just typed out a huge long explanation that I just deleted...lol ...in short (or @ least shortER) with the height of our deck and where our seating is located, the size of the smokebush, and my intentions (clearly understood at least in my own head- haha) don't worry guys, I'll be fine. I always envisioned a multi-stemmed tree, which would still hide the view of the utility boxes. ...don't think I will end up trying to do tree-form after all but do plan on pruning off many shoots and thin the boy down! as always, i appreciate the input from you all :)...See Moresmoke bush: transplant now?
Comments (5)the burning bush is invasive in many area.. why dont you just pull it out.. AND BURN IT ... if you are transplanting thru the use of a 4 wheeled gasoline powered vee-hickle.. of what difference is it.. if this is the right time.. ???? personally.. i dont move anything in august.. as night temps have the potential to be high ... so i would recommend waiting 30 days or so ... when more predictable cooler fall nights will help ... i think.. on some level.. they sucker.. if you can find a nice small .. already rooted sucker.. why dont you just give that to the friend.. and burn the big one while burning the other ... the odds of a small sucker living.. is probably much higher than using the truck but i am sure farmboy could chime in and give you all kinds of pointers regarding the use of a truck in the garden/transplanting .. lol .. ken...See MoreAnyone stopped smoking after years of smoking?
Comments (38)I have been a lurker here forever...never posted. I know how hard it is to quit smoking. I smoke for over 20 years about 2 1/2packs a day. I quit 5 years ago. I had tried to quit several times but always went back. I quit by picking a date.I told myself that it was going to be hard but every day would be easier. I also read that when you quit smoking your body is over the withdraw from nicotine 48-72 hours after you last smoke. I told myself the first 3 days would be the hardest and after the 3 days it is all a mind game. I really believe that is what help me stop smoking is knowing that my body did not need the nicotine, that it was my mind. i did take a mini vaction from work, some people say they get very tired from not smoking.... The first 6 months are hard....you will give yourself every excuse to smoke again...it has been 5 years and once in great while i will still get the urge to smoke...I know I cannot smoke or even try to smoke...because I will be right back where I was. I wish you the best of luck...See MoreSmoke tree and smoke bush cut back
Comments (5)welcome to the forums dave.. if you are going to hang around.. add your location on your member's page ... and if you dont think that is important.. i cant really tell you when its going to resprout .... e.g compare sara's z9 to my z5MI .... anyway ... i am pretty sure you could run this over with a cement truck and not kill it.. so stop worrying about that ... and with no insult to the root mass ... i would expect it to be back to the size you cut down.. in a year or 3... depending on location ... you might want to think about removal.. next time it tries to take over the yard ...unlike children.. you dont have to keep problem plants ... lol... unfortunately.. i dont remember if they bloom on new or old wood.. someone else will have to tell us if it will bloom this year .... so.. at worse.. you lose this years bloom ... ken...See More- 3 years ago
