Details
According to biologist Igor Singer, first of all you need to clean the wound that formed at the break of the tree. After mechanical treatment, it should be treated with a fungicide, passive wound drainage should be arranged and a net should be placed on the hole so that debris does not get there and does not lead to wood rot.
The next step is sanitary unloading pruning of the branches so that the linden can keep its balance. After that, install a temporary support that will support the heaviest branches. It will then be removed and the tree fixed with a specially designed dynamic cabling system.
