    Blackened maple tree

    If you can't find the gloomy scale this might just be a harmless fungal issue. Around here lots of Sugars turn black, but I always just chalked it up from some sort of minor mechanical damage, fermentation, and adventitious fungus. What are common treatments for gloomy scale? An initial google...

    I stand corrected. I always just assumed the limestone would push the ph in the surrounding soils sky high.

    I'll sometimes talk to the clearance crews when they are working near one of my crews. We only get the big companies for those contracts, so safety is usually on point. A newer (but large) company I'd never seen before was actually over the top with their safety protocol. They had cones set up...

    Free webinar with 1.0 CEU on Arboricultural Biomechanics
