how many spikes do i put to my pear ttree

The number of spikes used is based on the size of the tree. Take a look at the product label for the coverage recommendations.

I use 2 on my fig tree, it is well established and about 12 years old. I dig a hole and bury the spike, I tried the hammer and even with the plastic cap that comes with it, the spike crumbled. You can also break them in half too and place around the tree. Any tree younger than 8 years, I would use one and break it in half and plant in two holes. I have been using these over 10 years and am well pleased. I place them under the perimeter of the outside branches.

Lol, there should be some guidelines on the bag, since its a general fertilizer it should go by the size of your tree and not the fruit itself, meaning go by the trunk size of the tree. Either way, too much is a bad thing, I would put no more than two at opposite ends of each other at least 6-8" from the trunk. miracle gro should have a website to go to-the best advice- I would check their website

I put 4 or 5 around my fruit trees, depending on how big the tree is. My trees are all at least 8 feet wide in the leaves, or 4 feet from the center of the tree to the outer edge.

I agree with the answer from Sandy. The longer the kit, the easier to install. No way I would buy the extra spikes available from the manufacturer. Too expensive. 6" carriage bolts work fine -- at least in our sandy soil. More than likely the shiny metal of the bolt will be covered with mulch, stones, or dirt, or can be easily painted if they're too obvious. The material is easy to cut as needed and the connectors work great unless it happens to be needed right on the curve. In that case, we re-thought the design to avoid this situation.

The spikes must be 10" from the main stem of the bush. They work great on the roses in my yard

100 should be sufficient for a 3 foot tree depending on the density strung at. They are a pleasing blue color, not purple.

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.

You can do 3 but I only did 2 sweet 100 = about 3000 tomatoes. Yes we count them ! I also planted 4 eggplant, next year I will do 3 as I thought they needed a little more room. Also did 3 Bell Peppers. A very bountiful harvest.

sorry for the ate notice. If you plan to just place one flower make sure the flower has a pretty think stem or use a "fake" arrangement with a pretty thick base. But personally I used them with 3-4 different flowers and added a bit of baby breath and it looked great!

I keep watering as I always do. The spikes dissolve in time releasing the necessary nutrients that the plants need. I place spikes there or four times a year.

I don't know for certain, but the purpose of the spike is to help the plant bloom. Period. I would count on a different product for your purpose.

You will receive 5. I put mine on Crape Myrtles which are multi-stumped. These are heavy duty and I recommend them for traditional one-stumped trees such as oaks, maples etc. Deer don't stand a chance.

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.

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.

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

depends on your soil. I have soft soil and the spikes they send with it pull out and I had to buy extra and add a lot more than they recommend. if you have harder soil might work.

There were 7 spikes in the package and I used them all when I received them, so I'm afraid that I don't know the answer to the question.

It won't work well unless you cut off the narrower part of the pear before you put it on the prongs. Apples work well because they are round.

It depends on how thick is the sand if u know its gonna be too soft then rest ur mind and get the longest spikes u can find and that should do the job if not work ur way with stones or something , be creative lol
