We got a new build, and it came with 2 new white oaks and 1 cedar elm. When do you take the supports off? And should I retie the supports if they start digging into the trunk? I can add pictures later but I wanted to ask while it was on my mind. The trees are probably about 6’ tall. The support is one large bamboo stake with the green stretchy plastic ties, and 2 t-posts angled out with a thick fabric strap wrapped around the trunk between them. They’re all starting to look healthy again after winter. Zone 9b if it matters.
