Just like biting your tongue accidentally while awake, you may do the same during sleep. A disproportionately large tongue or a crowded or misaligned set of teeth can result in excess tongue injury during wakeful time, as well as during sleep.
Fertilize your cedar hedge in the early spring when flowers and plants are blooming. Use a 30-10-10 water-soluble fertilizer on the soil around the hedge. Water the hedge immediately following the fertilizer application. Continue to water the soil until you can no longer see any fertilizer granules on the soil surface.
The best time of year to prune oak trees is from late fall until the end of March, when oak wilt disease is dormant and there is no risk of infection. If your oak tree is pruned at any other time of the year, some type of sealant should be applied to all pruning wounds to prevent oak wilt infection. Pruning paint is effective along with any latex paint. This same time period is also appropriate for trimming other species of trees, when insects and disease are dormant.
