Some of my trees

Here are my trees that I have been growing for a number of years:

1- white oak (3 yrs) grown from seed

7- weeping cherry (9yrs) grown from sapling

I have a few questions. My cherry tree has some white spots on the leaves. A few of them have parts of them missing with white edges. Is this powdery mildew, or a result from using hard water (I have been using hard water recently since I just moved to a new town).

Also, as you can see, my maple has inconsistent leaf size. How do I correct this to get small consistently sized leaves?

Thanks a bunch.[/img]

HA I CAN ANSWER THIS
kay after all the normal size leaves have come durring spring you can prune all of them off. this makes a new set of foliage grow in but its small. this is also the trick for the red maples. cause to much sun in red maples turns them green so if you prune all the leaves off it resets them. and this color also keeps the rest of the year
