Planted a bare root beech hedge last April 09 and really not much growth has taken place to date. How often should I fertilize to increase growth? and which is best to use? ? There is a weed blocker down but this does not limit interaction.
Recently planted a bare root copper beech hedge, at a 100 metres in total and set out with the typical guidelines of 18 inches apart, compost used etc. The next step is to figure out how and when to prune this particular type of hedging? The bare roots themselves are approx two foot and a half above ground level and were planted in March. I would appreciate PRUNING suggestions you may have plus several have not shown any life (no growth) is there anything to do... Look forward to hearing from you...
