Fertilization

Serving All of Michigan

In an urban landscape, trees do not need all the necessary nutrients as it would in their natural habitat. Seasonal fertilization is recommended and this is how we do it:

STEP 1: Fertilization

In the spring or fall the soil around the tree will be fertilized with a custom selection of the following: Nitrogen (N), Phosphorus (P), Potassium (K), Iron (Fe), Manganese (Mn), and liquid compost – all essential nutrients for healthy soil and root systems. Providing the tree with the best soil chemistry is the goal.

STEP 2: Metabolic Processes

Trees acquire carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen from the atmosphere and water and through photosynthesis (light energy from the sun), they are combined to produce glucose. Trees use glucose and essential nutrients for growth, reproduction, and pest/disease resistance.

STEP 3: Evapotranspiration

This process involves the movement of nutrients from the soil, up the trunk, and into the outer canopy, carrying them dissolved in water to be used as needed.

STEP 4: Reduced Nutrient Levels

Essential nutrients in urban soils can be depleted for several reasons, and this leads to limited metabolic processes. Fertilization helps maintain nutrient availability to trees. BACK TO STEP 1.

They did a wonderful job removing the two trees in our backyard. They were quick and professional. I would definitely recommend this company if you need a tree removal service.

They do great work, and they leave the project area in excellent condition. Company went out of their way to make sure we were satisfied with their service. I highly recommend them.

The team did an amazing job. They took down 2 trees for me one which was in the back of the property and hard to reach. When they left, everything besides the missing trees looked exactly the same as before they arrived. They left the property in great condition, almost as if they had never been there. Great job!I had some tree work I needed done for years but never did anything about it. Once I called Chop they made it easy and provided a good value.

Excellent!! So knowledgeable and cares about the health of the tree. They did such a fantastic job, we called them back to do work at my aunt's house. We'll be calling them exclusively every year to do our tree work

Great experience! Amazing to watch the crew - their level of skill, their professionalism, how they worked together, the clean-up - and all of it with the planning and direction provided by an arborist who really knows this field! Wish all home services worked this way, with this level of quality as a result! Highly recommended!

Very impressed by these guys promptness and quick work to get rid of my 2 VERY tall trees. I will definitely use them again for some projects I have with my house.

Professional service with the proper equipment. Not just a random guy with a chainsaw and prayer.

The crew were awesome. Very reasonably priced. It was an amazing process to watch. Such a relief to have the tree removed & not have to worry about it falling on the house & destroying it. I highly recommend this company & would definitely call them again if needed.
