The combined approach of soil de-compaction and injection of biochar and natural bio-stimulants using the Vogt Geo-Injector has many long-term benefits for trees, particularly in urban environments where soil compaction and limited rooting areas can lead to stress and poor health.
When soil is compacted, it becomes difficult for water and nutrients to penetrate, leading to reduced root growth and limiting the tree’s ability to uptake essential nutrients. As a result, the tree becomes more vulnerable to pests and diseases, reducing its overall health and lifespan.
However, by de-compacting the soil and injecting bio-stimulants, the soil structure improves, creating a more favourable environment for mycorrhizal fungi to establish, leading to improved root systems and better nutrient uptake.
One of the most significant benefits of this treatment is the reduction of pest attacks. By improving the tree’s defence system, the tree is less vulnerable to pests and diseases. Additionally, the thick and green leaves and increased crown density are clear signs of a healthy tree that can withstand environmental stresses.
In conclusion, the combined approach of soil de-compaction and injection of natural biostimulants including biochar is an effective way to enhance tree health and longevity, particularly in urban environments where soil compaction and limited rooting areas can lead to poor health.
This treatment has long-term benefits, including improved root systems, better water and nutrient uptake, and increased resistance to pests and diseases.
