    Ropes you use

    I personally do not find a reason to own a 1/2 and a 9/16’s rope. So similar in size and strength. But it does not hurts to have as many rope sizes and lengths you can afford. My set up Climbing: Tachyon 120’ and 200’ Rigging 200’ 1/2 Sterling HTP 200’ 1/2 All Gear Forestry Pro 150’ 5/8...

    What does a multiple year tree care plan look like? Say the property has 150 trees, you schedule 50 trees per year for the next three years to be maintained on the property?

    Hitching dead eye slings

    I have always used conventional loop type slings when I work around cranes. I was wanting to try a dead eye style sling like the Mark. C version from treestuff. When using those do most tie a running bowline? Timber hitch? Clove?

    So for the last year and a half I've been studying to gain might be BCMA. I've read a lot of books on fertilization and typical PHC stuff. The more I read about fertilization the more I see how other companies might be miss using it. It really seems like it can be a two edged sword. So many...
