Hackberry chop
I just purchased a Chinese Hackberry from our local nursery.
It has nice trunk size and taper. The Hackberry has not leafed out yet but the buds look like they are about to break open, I want to chop the trunk and put it in a growbox. Should I wait until it has leafed out completely or is now fine? Thanks, Dan Zone 3a |

I WOULD CHOP IT BEFORE THE LEAVES OPEN. AN ALTERNATIVE TO THE CHOP IS TO AIR LAYER IT WHERE YOU WOULD CHOP IT. THIS WAY YOU GET 2 TREES OUT OF IT.
