Fertilizing your trees and shrubs in Texas is crucial to providing them with the nutrients they need to stay healthy and beautiful. While you can do this on your own, it's highly recommended to hire professionals to do it for you. That's because you may make mistakes when doing it yourself, such as using the wrong product, not applying enough fertilizer treatment, administering it the wrong way, or doing so at the wrong time. It's best to hire professionals to fertilize your trees and shrubs because they will use the right treatments to yield the best results, use the right amount of treatment, and when to apply it. They'll also administer the fertilizer product at the right time to ensure your plants thrive throughout the growing season.

You May Use the Wrong Fertilizer Product for Your Trees & Shrubs

When fertilizing your trees and shrubs on your own, you may use the wrong product or one that isn't as effective. There are different types of fertilizers, and you may not know which one is best for your plants. Because of this, they may not receive the nutrients they need to sustain their health and beauty. However, professionals will have the knowledge and experience to choose the right fertilizer treatment for your trees and shrubs. That way, they yield the best results, and you can rest easy knowing they'll have everything they need to thrive.

You may not apply enough fertilizer to your trees and shrubs if you do it yourself.

Another reason why you should leave fertilizing your trees and shrubs to the professionals is that you may not apply enough or administer the treatment properly. If you don't use enough fertilizer, then your plants won't receive the nutrients they need to flourish. On the other hand, if you apply too much, you can cause more harm than good, as it can burn them. Not only that, but you may not know the best method to deliver the fertilizer treatment for your trees and shrubs. Fortunately, professionals will know how much fertilizer to apply and which treatment method is best for them. For example, they may use liquid fertilizers and apply them through a root injection to ensure your trees and shrubs receive the nutrients properly and utilize them efficiently.

Over-fertilizing your trees and shrubs can cause root burn, which can severely damage them.

You May Apply Fertilizer to Your Trees & Shrubs at the Wrong Time

While you may think applying fertilizer to your trees and shrubs anytime is okay, this isn't the case. You may do it at the wrong time, which won't give them the nutrients they need when they need them most. However, professionals will know when to apply fertilizer to ensure your plants receive them at the right time. For example, they'll likely do it in the early spring to help them recover from winter dormancy and prepare for the new growing season. They'll also ensure your plants receive a fertilizer treatment in the fall to help them prepare for winter dormancy. That way, your trees and shrubs have everything they need to stay healthy and beautiful all year long.
