How many spikes do you use for each palm tree

Depends on size and species. For majestic tree I used 3-4. For pindo I used 4-6. Sego may use 2.

Sorry, I don't know if the spikes can be used with American Holly's, Japanese Maples, Myrtle Crapes, Witch Hazels. I read the direction, put a spike next to one of three shrubs. The shrub where I used the spike is dead. On the other two shrubs I used triple 10 fertilizer and they are thriving. Before using this product, I recommend testing it.

You are supposed to tie top of braid just before the leaves spread when there's about 8" of growth between tie n leaves then continue braid and repeat tie. if you've got a green thumb the tree can get to 6-7' but I've never seen one potted more then 4'. Good luck

Yes it will..I did that to start and put 1 in the pot and then later had to put them in the ground and used 2 for both of those plants. My plants are doing well with these spikes. Good luck. :)

no more than two. Plant them close to the rear or you won't be able to tie them to the trellis.

Actually, I have not used the Jobe spikes. I ended up using the "GROW MORE" Soluble Palm Food that I purchased at the same time. I took both to growers and they said use this first and the other later. Well later has not come because all my palms look great & I live in N. Texas. One is in a huge pot; the rest in the ground. I am going to try the Jobes spikes next. Does this help?????????

Get a mallott and pound in the spikes should be okay, trellis hooks up to the spikes you pound in the ground.

I use them once a year in the spring. Now I do not believe they can hurt a tree using them all year round , but when the trees go dormant, including evergreens , they have lesser needs. I know Miracle-Gro says to use them year round, which is good for their business, but once a year, per directions should be sufficient. Always use a wooden stake and drive into the ground before placing spikes, as they are prone to break. I have Japanese Maples, Leyland Cypress, Crape Myrtles and Maples, I also use them on shrubs and large grasses. I can say this "they do make a difference".

I would imagine you could, as they are organic. I would just adjust the size of them according to your container. I used them in my container garden last year and they worked well, but I used very large pots. Since they're spikes they can easily be broken in half.

For best results, we recommend these spikes be installed in sunny areas. If they need to be installed in a shaded area, we suggest our Sweeney'S Mole & Gopher Sonic Spikes 15000 Sq. Ft. 2 / Pack Moles

So, the rule is 1 spike per inch of TRUNK DIAMETER, not the limb circumference. My peach trees are ~10 ft. tall, have about 3" diameter trunks and 8 foot limb spread (~100 inches) and I feed them with 3-4 spikes each. Its kind of confusing because it says to place them around the drip line (limb diameter), but the number of spikes is figured from the trunk thickness (in inches). You'll need a caliper (micrometer) to figure, I bought a Hornady brand here on Amazon for $18.

I would go with 2. Depending on what you are growing as to what color temperature. I had the best results using one cool white and one warm white and rotating the plants around every 3 - 4 days. Great product for the price!!

From research that I have done, a combination of soil made for palm/cactus/citrus plants and standard Miracle Grow should be used. When I replanted my tree I used nearly an entire bag of the palm/cactus/citrus soil and about an equal amount of Miracle Grow. My tree is thriving and has multiple "baby" lemons on it. It is also recommended that you fertilize it a few times over Spring and Summer, but not over the winter. Recommended fertilizers are those high in nitrogen. I use a fish emulsion that is a 5-1-1- ratio of nitrogen, phosphate and soluble potash. I hope this helps. Good luck.

I would buy 2 packages, or 30 spikes. You will want to use 2 spikes per tree, 1 on each side about 30" from the trunk. We have a rectangular orchard with about 20 trees on 10 foot centers that we put in last year. We used a total of 40 spikes on the east and west sides of each tree. I would also recommend that you purchase a handheld auger (Yard Butler 30 inch Roto Digger) to drill into the ground about 18 inches before dropping in the spike. You want your roots to go down for their nutrients rather than across the surface, and burying the fertilizer stakes helps make that happen. These say right on the package do not use within 30 inches of tree trunk". Take that seriously. Buried or not, they will burn your roots if you stick them right next to the trunk.

At least two. I'm on my second season. Don't add too much. This stuff expands in the pots.

I am not familiar with palm frones. I'm about 1100 miles north of the nearest growing palm. However this machine will chew threw a 1 inch oak, maple, birch branch with no problem. So unless a palm frones is much more dense than these northern hardwood you should not have problem. This is an awesome machine and anything 1 inch in diameter short of a steel pipe, I believe will be chewed right up.

If it's a six foot palm, I'd say yes. But since palm trees do grow taller, I doubt they light up one that is much taller. Did you plan on putting all four lights on one tree, or one light on four separate trees? Remember each light is just 20 watts. These are more mood lights and not really spots.
