AB  - This study evaluated the wounding effects of Mauget and Creative Sales injection techniques in sugar maple. Wounds created by Mauget nutrient (Stemix) administered to the tree using either a drill technique or the insertion tool technique with injection sites at 4.5’ above ground level on the stem or at the stem/root buttress interface were compared. The injury resulting from the drill was less at both sites than the insertion tool. Medicap MD nutrient treatment had the highest wound rating. Selection of the correct injection site is critical to minimize the wound effect.
