 Blue spruce with brown tips
Hello all this is my first post.
I have a 4ft blue spruce, where over the last 3-weeks the outer 1in of needles have turned brown/yellow and are starting to fall off.
I'm in Blair, Nebraska and we had a very dry March. This is only (1) tree in a row of (12). I know it was fine 3-weeks ago, because this is when I gave each of them a shot of fertilizier. 2gals of Miracle-Gro Miracid, mixed per instuctions is what I used. We have had 2.5in of rain in the last week. I also noticed that a mole or pocket-gopher had disturbed the soil around the trunk. This tree is about 4-years old.
Any suggestions on what to do? |
