When correctly performed, various advantages can occur. Advantages include minimizing risk of stem and branch breakage, improved clearance for pedestrians and vehicles, enhanced appearance and health, improved view, and improved flowering.

Introduction Trees often grow bigger than wished for safety or aesthetic considerations. These trees might conflict with overhanging utility wires, stretch into buildings or other trees, or turn dangerous due to their condition, length, or size. Reduction pruning is used to lessen the size of a tree, by lowering the length of one or many stems and branches. Even though this kind of pruning can control the size of the tree to a certain degree, it's not a replacement for matching the correct tree species with the site when planting. Huge trees planted in inadequate locations usually need reduction to reduce hardscape damage from roots, or reduce risk of failure. Constant pruning will be needed to keep the tree within desired limits. Reduction pruning done once the tree has become too big could require the removal of large diameter stems. The consequent wounds can include cracks, decay, and sprout development. Therefore, it's preferred to do reduction prior to the tree becoming too big for its surroundings. Correct reduction pruning reduces size while more or less maintaining a tree's form and minimizes regrowth. Execution Sometimes, the entire canopy of a tree has to be reduced in spread or height, to minimize risk of failure or for utility line clearance. Additional to the parts size to be taken out, make sure you specify the clearance required above, or alongside the canopy when pruning for utility line clearance, or nearby a building. This way, everybody will have similar understanding of what is to be performed. Portions of the canopy, like separate limbs, can be minimized in order to balance the canopy, or to minimize the likelihood of breakage on limbs with defects, like included bark and cracks, or those which have grown to become too long. Reduction is best accomplished by cutting limbs back to a lateral branch, or back to their point of origin, with the capacity to sustain the leftover limb, and assuming apical dominance of the limb. Once a branch is chopped back to a lateral, not more than one-fourth of its foliage must be removed. A common rule of thumb is that the leftover lateral branch has to be at least one-third the diameter of the cut off portion, but this rule may vary with species, age, climate, and the condition of the tree. Reflection must also be done regarding the ability of the species to sustain this type of pruning. Species that are noted to quickly decay from these kinds of cuts must be reduction pruned, more conservatively than more decay-resistant species. Never trim a landscape tree by topping it. Topping results in numerous sprouts, decay, cracks in limbs, bark defects, root decline, and other problems. Tree Masters Tree Service, Inc. is proudly serving Greater Tampa since 1988.
