is topping a tree bad?

Is topping a tree bad? Or is it okay? If you ask me, it's more of a dangerous than anything else. The reason why I say that is because in the event that a tree topples or if you hit it hard, you may end up with a death.

In order to prove my point, there are two ways to go about it. One way is to cut down the top of the tree, but this is very messy and can cause the tree to break. The other way is to put the tree on its side and that is done using some type of tool like a tree pry.

I would recommend topping a tree because that way you will get the tree off safely and you won't end up with any injury to yourself or your family. You can even use the tools as means of protection so that you don't have to dig out the trunk that will eventually fall and injure someone.

So what is topping a tree all about? Well when you are gardening in the ground, there is nothing to prevent you from cutting a branch off the tree. Now this is not a bad thing and can actually be beneficial. However, when you are trying to maintain the height of the tree and you decide to move it to the top of the tree where it will not pose as much of a threat.

You may think that is topping a tree bad, but when you keep in mind the risk and the potential damage that could come with digging a branch off of the tree, it is better. This is because it gives you the ability to make sure that you are not going to cause harm to anyone.

But does topping a tree bad? Well if you take away the ground that is exposed to you that you can cut off, it still has the roots to protect and will eventually recover.

When you top a tree, you can do it at the same time that you are taking down the top of the tree. You do not want to do this at the same time of day. You can however, do it in the evening or the morning.

So there you have it, is topping a tree bad? The only way that you can really answer that question is if you ask yourself if you should be doing it and the answer to that is no, you shouldn't - for more see tree trimming info.
