I have always had a live tree and put it up the 2nd week in dec. but for what ever reason I agreed to get it and up it up on the first. Now that dang thing is dry.
Re: flipping christmas tree.
yep, fresh cut. the tree was fresh. The stand holds a gallon of water and it was never out. BTW add sugar to the water does not do anything except grow mold. I'm not too shocked. I mena they only last about a month and it is right at 3 weeks.
Hm. Good to know about the sugar. Three weeks still seems short to me. I usually get a tree the first week of December and have never had a problem leaving it up until at least the Epiphany.
What about the tree placement? Is it near an air vent or radiator that might be drying it out prematurely? Are you keeping the house warmer than in years past? Otherwise, how about the source? Is it directly from a tree farm or from another vendor?
