Host Shane sits down with local PHC expert Burton Whitfield for a friendly, practical introduction to plant health care. They cover Burton's path into PHC, why soil, water, and nitrogen matter most, how pH and urban changes stress trees, and easy first-step treatments like injection systems and soil aeration.

This episode focuses on diagnosing common urban tree problems, the philosophy of treating trees in "tree time," and sensible sales practices—wrapping up as Part 1 of an Intro to PHC series with more deep dives to follow.
