How to Prevent a Tree From Dropping Leaves
If you are concerned that your tree is losing leaves early in the season, you should consider calling a professional to assess the situation. Depending on the reason for the early leaf loss, there are ways to bring your tree back to health.
Checking Moisture
The most common cause of early leaf drop is water stress. In order to prevent this from happening, you will need to check the moisture level of the tree and make sure that you are watering it properly.
Pests
Another common cause is pests. Some pests can infect a tree and cause it to lose leaves. To avoid this, you should inspect the tree and see if there are any signs of insect infestation. You can also use insecticides to treat pests.
Dryness
Another reason for early leaf drop is drought. A dry, hot summer causes a tree to lose water and become stressed. This will affect the growth of the leaves. When the weather becomes colder, the leaves will change color and fall off.
Call an Arborist for Help
A tree that has lost leaves before the end of October should not be harmed. However, you should call an arborist to find out what needs to be done.
Nutrients
Trees may be stressed due to nutrient deficiencies, root damage, or a sudden temperature drop. You can help them by giving them extra water and fertilizer. But if the problem is caused by a disease, you should seek the assistance of a professional.
It is important to keep an eye on your tree in winter storms. During these times, you can give the tree some water or provide it with weekly watering.
