To help you understand more about Tree Thinning, we need to let you know that there are two different definitions.

First, Tree Thinning can be defined, from the forestry point of view, as cutting down selected trees, so that other trees can survive and thrive. If you were to walk through Lory State Park, and see a bunch of trees that are very close together, you would probably think that some of those trees needed to be thinned out a bit. That is basically the definition of Tree Thinning. 

Another definition of Tree Thinning is for the individual tree, and we have listed a few points below to help.

1. Tree Thinning is basically just a more refined version of Tree Trimming & Pruning for your trees. Lets say that you have a tree that is chock full of branches, and your ten year old is having a tough time climbing it because they can’t fit their skinny body through all the foliage. We use this illustration not to say that your ten year old should be climbing trees, but to say that you should probably think about having Diamond Tree Company thin out your branches a bit. 

2. Branch growth can take place over a number of years, and is generally ignored by homeowners and commercial property owners because of the fact that a tree can look ‘full’ because of the additional branch growth.  What they fail to realize is that additional branches mean that your tree has to support additional weight, and that alone is a very bad thing for the long term survival of your precious tree. 

3. Fort Collins home and land owners neglect their trees because, lets face it, they don’t see Tree Thinning as a very important thing in relation to the mortgage, putting food on the table, or taking that fun trip at the end of the year.
