This video is a complete guide discussing how to root prune fruit trees in containers. You will learn how to root prune trees, re-pot the tree with fresh potting mix, how to prune a tree after re-potting, and how to fertilize a tree to encourage recovery.
Root pruning trees in containers periodically is mandatory for the tree's health. Otherwise, the tree will become rootbound and eventually go into decline. We discuss why we must root prune fruit trees for health and fruit production, ideal container size, making potting mix for up-potting fruit trees, fertilizing and mulching. We root prune a fig tree as an example in this video, but the method can be applied to root prune container trees of any type.
