    Climbers for Christ

    Good share. Biblical prophecy is always interesting. In hindsight, there's no other way it could've come together and happened without God's intervention. I think this current war will last a long time, but I see several scenarios where it can lead to the Battle of Gog and Magog. Nonetheless...

    Rot resistant wood suggestions please

    Baldcypress is another good option. The eastern redcedar is rot resistant, and takes the sun better than most.

    Construction plans detail thread

    https://hort.ifas.ufl.edu/woody/details-specs.shtml Great place to start with details. The specs are a little difficult to shoehorn into existing ones, but match up to the details well.

    It is very much the same thing. The plumbing you have dictates your gender: https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/female If somebody is more masculine than typical of a woman or more feminine that a typical male, that's ok. But to say I'm really a woman in a man's body is ridiculous. This...

    Cost of stepping off the ground

    How much do y'all think the cost of our gear deters the next generation from learning this trade instead of another? Most service trades requires the employees to provide their own tools, but I haven't really seen that personally in the arboriculture world. Just trying to think of how to get...

    What causes trees to grow upward?

    Shaded cells do grow longer, in some species. That's why the edge effect in a forest talks about trees leaning out away from the rest of the canopy cover having more growth on the shaded sides to cause the lean. Bamboo staked trees in nurseries will have longer elongation on that one side too...

    Arborist wanted in Central Texas

    I appreciate all the comments. The cost of living is pretty low there, but maybe there's some fringe benefits to have as well for the right person. It is a cool gig and we get to do projects you'd not normally be privy to with commercial work. If someone is interested in the work and location...

    Arborist wanted in Central Texas

    Working out of Hunt, TX, we are looking for an arborist to join our tree care crew. We work solely for one landowner and maintain the specimen trees across several of the ranches throughout Texas. Most of the work is very fine pruning over high end landscape with tight access. Airspading and PHC...

    Palm Tree Help!

    I've seen that happen when they're consistently hit with the irrigation. Check the yard maintenance situation for ignorant landscape maintenance practices.

    Climbers for Christ

    I'm saying we're all unworthy, but it's there for us anyway. Drugs and prison don't make bad people in my opinion.

    Anyone been hit by a throw weight?

    Baldcypresses tend to hang them up most for me. I've just untie between throws every time with those. I did hit my own truck with one. It left a very obvious dent in the hood. I've always had this rule of not parking where the tree I'm removing could fall on it, but that day added the...

    Climbers for Christ

    I've never been in jail, murdered anyone, or even done drugs. Most would say I'm a "good" person, but I'm prideful, greedy and selfish. It's a conscious effort for me to be compassionate and caring towards others. The fact that there is even a way to be deemed perfect and blameless and worthy of...

    Fruit tree sources?

    Womack Nursery has always been good with me. It's in Texas, so their shipping season is probably gone. They usually sell out of their heavy hitting items by February.

    Tree in Texas

    Easy now...I meant to say where IN Texas. There's not many places better than Texas. That's why they call it God's country you know.

    Perhaps a box elder. Where *in Texas?

    Too late to prune oak?

    In Texas, we have the rules not to prune oaks between February and June as it is the time when the nitidulid beetles and fungal mats are most likely to cross paths. We have those wild weather swings too, so in practice the likelihood for a new infection happens year round and has been...

    Forrest. He likes people more than dogs, and I like dogs more than people, so it works out.
