Proper root flare for young oak tree

12 years ago

It has been suggested based upon pics I posted in the "scarlet oak peeling bark" post that the root flare on my oak trees needs to be exposed more. What is the proper amount? Could someone point me to some images that demonstrate this? When I water my oaks, I lay a hose pipe at the base and then turn the water down to a trickle. I then leave it there for 15-20 minutes. Will this work or do I need to change my approach?
