I have a trident maple forest that has been growing well throughout this summer. However, the trees are young, and I seem to be getting a lot of growth up to and very slow growth down below. Should I be pruning down to a few nodes up toop to stimulate growth down lower? I am not trying to back bud as there are already branches, they just don't seem to be growing as quickly as the top.

I also recently moved from the coast, right across the street! Anyway I had a lot of salt air damage the leaves, should I cut those leaves off, half of the leaf is green other half is brown/black.


Thanks guys!
