Top Causes for Stunted Tree Growth<\/h1>\n\n\n\nLack of Sunlight<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Trees need sunlight to grow, sustain, and produce oxygen. If a tree is denied a certain degree of sunlight, then the growth will inevitably suffer. Sunlight is food for trees. They need it to survive and to remain healthy. If a large building is suddenly erected next door to your adolescent trees, their growth rate may reduce more and more, every season. On top of this example, trees can be denied sunlight in other ways. Storms, overcast, and larger trees can block other trees from receiving enough rays as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Animals and Insects<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
There are a few species of insects, animals, and living organisms that use the nutrients derived from trees to sustain their own lives and growth patterns.\u00a0 In this situation, the tree may not be able to grow at its potential rate because it is not getting all of the nutrients it generally requires.\u00a0 This relationship between creature and tree is not enough to kill a tree, but certainly stunt its growth.\u00a0 Another scenario involves infestations.\u00a0 <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Certain insects can use trees as hosts and hives, putting the tree at risk of disease or death.\u00a0 This type of relationship will immediately stop the growth of a tree and even begin killing it along the way.\u00a0 The most common pests known to do this to trees include tree borers, female scale insects, aphids, and Elm Leaf beetles. Fungal outbreaks are also detrimental to tree health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Lack of Water<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Just like everything living thing on Earth, trees need water to grow. If they do not get the amount of water they need to survive, they will eventually die. If a tree\u2019s water source becomes restricted, the tree can survive, but growth and longevity are not likely. Trees need nutrients, sunlight, water, and minor maintenance to thrive on any residential property. A drought, bad weather, water source obstruction, or root damage can all be causes for water depletion in trees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
