A few will be mentioned below.
Deadwooding Deadwooding refers to the cutting down of dead branches leaves or roots to keep it healthy. There are times where parts of our trees die out, probably because they aren’t receiving much nutrition from the tree itself. Ignoring these dead branches or parts could put the entire tree at risk. Leaving dead branches for too long will effectively cause dead cells from the branch to spread unto the tree itself which could lead to the tree’s untimely death. Deadwooding helps to prevent these cells from spreading by a complete removal of dead branches. Thinning Thinning can be done for both the tree’s health and to beautify the environment altogether. Thinning is the deliberate and careful removal of tree branches in order to allow free flow of air and sunlight penetration into other parts of the tree and likewise, plants below. Thinning helps open up the foliage of a tree and reduce its overgrown branches; this also reduces the risk of a branch falling due to wind or other natural or man-made circumstances. Completing this task however is not as easy as it sounds. You will require a skilled tree climber guided by a certified Arborist for good results. Crown Or Canopy Raising As its name implies, crown raising is the trimming of the lower parts, leaving the top full and lush. Continuous removal of lower tree branches will put on a clean and natural look on the tree as leaves are projected upward. Also, another pro to this trimming is less weight; due to fewer branches on the lower part, the tree has fewer limbs to weigh it down which prolongs its lifespan (which also reduces the chances of dying branches.). Food processing through photosynthesis can also be easier for the plant as leaves point towards the sun. Crown Or Canopy Cleaning This also requires a good level of skill as canopy cleaning is one of the most thorough and difficult methods of tree trimming. It involves the removal of dead or dying leaves, wood, and other parts. This keeps the tree healthy and gives a clean and natural look.
