Also there arent so many so probably removing them manually would be the best. What kind of insecticides could I get and would that harm the tree itself too in any way? Also could you define what is a "scale"? Also a bit off topic: I would like to cut my tree to give him some shape. Would you guys suggest that? I attached a picture to show how does it look at the moment. I'd think about cutting it around the middle - where it starts to go upwards only. Do you guys think that would help the tree to get bigger/stronger? |
