A. Absolutely not, this process is called topping and not only is this very bad for the health and longevity of trees, eventually it makes the structure of your tree a lot weaker and more likely to break in a storm. The size, weight or height of a tree is rarely a problem - more often it is the thickness of the crown [too many leaves and branches that don’t allow air flow through the crown] that causes trees to act like a windsock and bend too far and break during severe weather events. The proper treatment is selectively removing some of the excess growth to allow better air penetration through the crown of the tree.

My tree is really big and we should chop all the tops off so they don’t break in a storm, right?
