Capsule Spacing

Quick estimate:
Capsules Needed ≈ DBH ÷ 2
Example: A 20-inch DBH tree typically requires approximately 10 capsules.
Note: Capsule dosages, also known as micro-injectors, are calculated by measuring the tree diameter at breast height, or DBH, in inches, then dividing that number by two to determine the total number of capsules.
