Need tree tubes

I have a field that we planted hardwood trees around 4000 trees and need to find a good place to purchase tree tubes. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Tree tubes?

yes they are tubes that you put over trees to protect them from critters, helps retain moisture and helps with weeds and protects when you need to spray.

One of these guys are sure to have them or advise where to get them.

You may want to price 3" corrugated ADS drain tubing. It comes in rolls of 100 feet. Using a hack saw or tin snips, you can cut off whatever size you want, then snip up the side so you can slip it around the tree base. Since you have so many trees, it might be cheaper than "real" tree tubes, and work just the same.

Thanks Al and K. Will check into it

I asked the same question as you not too long ago, I finally was able to find out where to get them. Here is the link to my thread. http://davesgarden.com/forums/t/529032/

Let me know if I can help you with anything else!

Jared the ones I am looking for range in height between 2' to 6', these tree tubes are supposed to make the trees grow up to 600 percent.We are growing hardwood tree to harvest for lumber. We are in an ohio forestry service that sends us trees to grow so that companies or company can come and cut down the trees to use to make furniture, either board lumber or use the trees for laminates. I can purchase new ones for around 4.00 each but am looking for used ones. I need about 4000 or so. Could get expensive. Of course I wont use tubes on all of them.

Thanks.

I believe this is what you are looking for now. They have some new ones for $1.00, i'm not too sure about the quality but it may be worth looking at.

Thank you Jared, that is what I needed.
