How Long to Stake Palms
Bracing or staking palms provides anchorage and stability to allow newly forming roots to grow outward into the surrounding soil. It should happen as soon as you plant the tree to give it support from the beginning. Once roots stabilize the palm, bracing must be removed.
A minimum bracing time frame of six to eight months is usually necessary. Don't brace palms for more than 12 months. Consider leaving braces up on palms as they endure their first tropical storm season. Including the first storm season, still don't keep the braces on for longer than 12 months.

Bogie - I have you on “ignore” and have told you to stop replying to any of my posts, as for some reason you like to “troll” me and posts very condescending remarks like “easily found on net” - I’m still new to the Villages and this site, and you have been nothing but unwelcoming and down right mean from my first time here. Why do you go out of your way to do this? I picture you as some old curmudgeon with no life here in The Villages, with nothing better to do than to spend all day on TOTV being smug and arrogant - please leave me alone and stop trolling me - placing you back on ignore.
