Bought 2 acres without any trees or shrubs. I have purchased "fast growing" trees however is there anything on the market to make them grow even faster?

Fast growing trees are often poor trees (poplar etc). I suggest that if you plant those kinds of trees, that you also put some slower growing but hardier trees in too. (Norway Maple for example)

Keep them watered and fertilized at the drip line (where water runs off the leaves)

Selective pruning of bad branches can also focus growth to the branches you want.

Don't know if there is anything on the market that is made specifically for speeding up growth. I use a deep root fertilizer on my trees in the spring and again in the fall. I also water them using the feeder or a device that is made especially for root watering. That way, your water is going to the root, not running away. The water does make a big difference. I had two cottonwood trees. One was in an area where it received water when I watered my lawn and also at the bottom of a slope, so it got the run-off. The other tree was at the top of the rise and didn't get the water that the other did. The difference in size of the trees and even the leaves is significant. When I started to root water the smaller tree, you could actually see that the new leaves were growing to be 2 to 3 times the size of the older growth. Food & water. That's the difference. Good luck with you yard and have fun.

Be extremely leery of fast growing trees...you might have purchased something that you will not want. Wish you had said what you bought. First of all, the bigger the tree you put in, the longer it is going to take to establish itself and grow. You are better off to start out with sticks. It may not seem like it, but in the long run, sticks adapt quicker and ultimately grow faster. Do not fertilze when the trees are dormant. You should check with your local USDA agricultural extension office for the best trees to grow in your area before you plant anything. You should also have a soil test done at the same place as then they can tell you what trees will grow best or what amendments you might need in the soil to be condusive to growing the trees you want or have. Just remember, when you plant trees, you are making a lifetime decision for your property. Read about what you have planted and see if this is the kind of tree you want to live with FOREVER. Maples are fast growers but stay away from silver maple or box elder. Dwarf fruit trees can grow quckly but make sure they are dwarf. My last dwarf cherry tree hit 50 feet. Buy from a reputable company, not just catalog order. And last, what is natural to your area is going to grow the best. Find out what shrubs and trees are native to your land and go with that. My best advice is never to plant a tree without consultation. Many trees will die if out of their natural soil..many can cause damage to your house if planted too close.

I have used this drug (containing DXM only) in pill and liquid forms off and on since 2011. I warn you that it change your life so think carefully. I have been in the hospital several times for it and it can be highly additive psychology. The effects vary on how fast you consume it and amount consumed. I started with pills in low doses, 13 to 26 pills at once, and it produced a altered state of reality and a euphoric feeling. I felt like things up close to me were far away and vice versa, and also I felt was moving though fluid. At higher doses, 30 to 60 pills/or 3-5 bottles, the effects get weird, scary, and much more real, to include time travel, space travel, meeting aliens, meeting or being God, watching creation happen, etc. What's actually scary is at these levels my body functions and movements would stop working properly. Paralysis was common at times. I would say don't even try it but if you do be ready for the consequences because they aren't all good and dandy.

yikes i hope you did not buy a tree like bradford pear. they grow fast but the are prone to falling branches. and they look horrible once the lose a major limb in a storm. I would just go for classic trees. maybe get some free seeds from your neighbor's tree. Make sure u water them deeply and give them some manure. Gather a lot of fallen leaves and compost it near the tree.

Yes, water often, plenty of vitamin B-1, etc...

One other thing to do is to prune the lower branches, as this would focus more of the trees energy into it growing taller. But be careful as fast growing trees usually mean weak branches.

Water more, give it more plant feed make sure its in the best condition basically but for a regular tree to be fairly high it takes about a year.

Vitamin B....for plant growth....I haven't been able to find it in the last few years...but if you can find it at a nursery...that's your best bet....(Include a mixture at the bottom of the planting hole)
