GREAT Info! ! ! Two Questions.

What kind of dye are you talking about?

Right now my trees are in full leaf bloom, as it has not been cold enough to make them drop leaves. Do I cut them, and apply that chemical NOW, or wait till the leaves have dropped and apply it?

I am assuming now before they go dormant.

And. . . My trees come out of a clump. last year when i cut them down to the base, it was a clump that was about 12" long and 8" wide. As you can see in the pictures, i have to use the pole/chain saw on most of it and the loppers on the rest.
