a) I don't think jesus would be in any business seeing that he carried no money, just his knowledge that god would provide for his needs. Also he was the definition of that quote about people needing the pruning, not the trees. He was the ultimate people pruner. I think he would prune a tree...
What I learn from people posting these before and after prunings is priceless. And the critiques, based on so many varied experiences is awesome.
Grover,
Thank you, and thank you for your clear responses to the critiques laid before you. Nice work!
Everyone,
Please post more reductions!
Thinking about my question now... What i recall is that species have an average amount of height they put on yearly, (with given light availability etc.) and so, could height be used to give an approx. age?
I think it's unlikely that tree is going to make it through another 50-100 years (simply...
guymayor,
it was much more of a random guess than a prognosis, but your point is well taken. I agree there is "a lot" that can be done to tame them, but the definition of "tame" is where it gets tricky and as this thread shows, a consensus is far off.
Quick Question:
I know that trunk girth...
Here goes...
If it was on MY property, I think I might top it about half way up both stems. It looks like there are some good ol' sprouts on the lower half and after seeing the Arthur Clough Oak, I would like the chance to see what kind of structure could be developed from such a tree.
If it...
Kevin,
Thank you. I'm relatively knew to climbing and the rope wrench has been a prime player in the development of my technique. It has shaped my understanding of climbing and opened up possibilities to my mind... and that vid is dope. That tree gets love. Cheers!

This is an article to give us all a little perspective.
Apparently, the tree care industry has a long way to go here in India. I'm guessing the 'tree officers' as well as the 'Chief conservator of forests' spend most of their time...
Hey everyone,
I'm really bummed I am not gonna be able to make it to the climb this year.

Re: IT\'S GLOBAL WARMING, STUPID
yeah, there is a new 'weapon' that has been developed, it's called an atomic vortex stimulator. it is designed to implode instead of explode and the configuration of the material is such that the implosion is created in a spiral pattern. when this 'weapon' is...
awesome q.
i'm thinking it's an indirect byproduct of the sum of all the small evolutionary changes made throughout the eons - (different veining patterns to move resources as needed, different cell wall structures as relating to defense, different surface area via changing light needs, and...
yeah it's not more than 3" and the h.o. (and friend) hasn't requested any help and i'm quite sure would not be interested in the hassle of dealing with another company to save this little one, especially when they will now be concerned with keeping an eye on all their plants and trees. They...
Hey Thanks Oaky,
Great ideas, I wish I could follow through on that, it's just I am currently in India for a while... was sort of hoping for some advice I could provide the h.o. that they could perform themselves...

I planted a flowering dogwood (8 ft.) earlier this year for a customer across the street from the beach (CT-long island sound). It was flooded by Sandy and I have been looking for info on a watering regimen to limit the damage done by the now salt-water saturated soil. does anyone know of one...
