I have 5 spruce trees about 30 ft tall and 60 inch circumference. Is application method the same as with deciduous trees? I live in CO and with the width of the trees and little rain, very little moisture reaches the base of the trunk. Is there a better product?
Yes, the Bayer Advanced 12 Month Tree and Shrub Protect and Feed II - Concentrate can be used to treat trees including spruce trees. You want to use 1 fl oz for every inch of distance around the trunk (circumference). You would want to also use 1 gallon of water for each inch of the trunk diameter. You want to go out about half way between the trunk and the trees drip line and evenly pour the solution in a circle around the base of the tree.
