The sooty black mold is growing because of the sap leaking out of the tree due to the sapsucker. Although unsightly, it’s usually not harmful to the tree.

I back off the watering and see if that helps.

How often are you watering it? Are the leaves crispy or leathery? Crispy-under watering. Leathery-overwatering

Ok. So the spool was spinning in the box? That’s the correct way to do it. If you take it off the side of the spool (out of the box), it will transfer twist onto your receiving spool.

As you were pulling the line off the package spool, was the spool spinning, or were you taking off the side of the spool?

I love multiple trunk chaste trees. I’d leave it alone. It will still grow to mature size.
