Hello! I’ve tried searching to the end of Google but haven’t yet been able to find an answer...
We have a Brandywine Maple tree with a curved trunk that I planted about 3 or 4 years ago. I tried holding it straight with a guy wire for two consecutive growing seasons, but it snapped right back when I took it off.
My question is, should I leave the guy wire on for a longer length of time (2-3 years straight)? Or will it straighten as the trunk grows and gets wider in diameter?
Sorry for the long post and thanks for any input or suggestions.
