Hey mate. This might help you. Me personaly when i do something that leaves a lot of small bits on dificult surface such as gravel usually put down big enough tarp or something and work on top of that so my clean up consists of basicli picking up corners and dumping content of said tarp cutting down clean up time to nearly zero.

@Wildlife Warrior i had a palm i wanted to get rid of so i thought mmmm let me try this out. The palm is now completely dead. Its dried up and all fronds are brown and have fallen off. I wasnt careful but i dont see were i went into the trunk. This process is hest if started with palms from the begin inning. I say young palm trees but this palm was about 5-6’ tall and it was HEALTHTY. Its also not even close to how easy as he makes it. Im not saying anything negative just saying be careful. Good luck with your palms.

@Wildlife Warrior yes this in the tree business is the only ones that should be doing this. My tree is less than 1/2 the height but i didnt want this tree. I tried the method on a tree that didnt matter. In fact i have four more and im going to try to dispose of them the same way. Ive taken care of my palms for about thirty years but i never when and stripped the part of the fonds that was left behind. I trim.

I only use the regular razor knife when I get near the top, when the branches can no longer be pulled out. Then I make ring cuts as I make.my way up. Makes the palms look majestic. I do the best palms in the entire area hands down.

I am in an extreme fire risk area in Northern California and am thinking of having this done to reduce the places where embers can become lodged. Dead palm fronds are insanely flammable. Thanks.

In the tropics, the majority of palms never need this type of cleaning because they shed their leafstalks completely and smoothly, on their own. In the western desert, however, you have only a few palms available for cultivation that can endure the extreme heat, and they don't cooperate with those who want them to be neat and not stubbled.

The palm usually lets you know when you’re skinning too much because as you skin, you’ll notice what you’re taking off, is the dry “bark” when you skin, and it’s wet or moisturized, that’s a sign you should stop. Hopefully that helps

This video was awesome. I love how you mentioned at the very end how you didn't trim the tree but only skinned it. I'm guessing you mentioned that because the pruning job was unhealthy. That tree should have more of a lower hanging canopy. It was over trimmed. But the skinning looks amazing. I pride skilled workers in any line of work that take pride in their end result. Too many people these days just don't give a fck and are about trying to take short cuts or screw a customer. Unfortunately management is the cause of that a lot of times. When you have your own business, your reputation walks and in some cases you don't even have to advertise as your quality stands out and people's word of mouth keeps you busy. Good stuff.

@@ilonaloha1 you shouldn't prune the fronds past horizontal as they still have essential starches the palm is still relying on. Also by pruning too hard it deforms the future trunk at the height which the head currently stands and can cause it to produce more seeds/flowers which can be a nuisance (currently "assisting" my partner in his ARB trade certificate book work)
