Whats changed?

 

 

No sold the biz but kept the air spade side.... i have good contracts with utilities etc... Think i was one of the first to have air spades - it took alot of time and blood and sweat to get in with people in the early days...

lee and chris i have got an oak tree 800 years old would you feed and decompact or would you just mulch with a bucket of worms? i wonder if you have worked with trees of this age before?

She is in a horse paddock oh dear. I have now fenced her off but she must be well compacted i have just grown 50 saplings from her seed they are now 2 years old so i will plant a couple near her to carry on when she dies the trouble here in the park is deer try growing trees with browsing deer reds and fallow:ohmy:

I suggest decompaction with the air-pick David and mulch with woodchip, an easy job and not very expensive..

 

As with most things there is a right and wrong way to decompact, I mean we wouldn't want to decompact to such an extent that the tree falls over the very next storm we have..

So you dont agree with ted greens bucket of worms then? How about the worry of disease from the mulch?
