For proper growth, trees should be fed twice yearly:
Early Spring - Before growth starts.
Fall - After leaves drop, but before ground freezes.
HOW TO USE
Small trees:
Sprinkle on ground over area equal to root spread. This can be estimated as the area under and slightly beyond the branch spread.
Large trees:
Make holes 2 to 3 inches in diameter, 2 to 3 feet apart, and 12 to 18 inches deep under the drip line (outer edges of branches) of the tree with an auger. Divide Tree-tone evenly among the holes, fill remainder of hole with soil and water thoroughly.
Quantities:
The amount of Tree-tone required is determined by the caliper or diameter of the trunk. On medium and large trees this should be measured at a point 4 feet above the ground.
Small Trees up to 3 inch diameter: 3 lbs. total
Medium Trees 3 to 6 inch diameter: 4 lbs. per inch
Large Trees over 6 inch diameter: 6 lbs. per inch
WHEN TO USE
One time each in Spring and Fall
WHERE TO USE
All fruit, shade and ornamental trees

This is an excellent soul amendment for trees. I have a farm located on sandy soil with poor nutrients. Tree Tone does wonders for my fruit and deciduous trees especially oaks. I apply it twice a year - in March and October.
