I he's fooked. In regards to defeat I guess that's probably the main worry, no full blown nuclear war but maybe he will just use a few tactical ones in Ukraine to level the place. It's not like it's going to rewind 3 months if he just pulls out tomorrow. Its probably just going to be Russia's Afghanistan for the next 20 years or until at least someone takes him out.

I wonder if this threat is still on the cards Russia warns of nuclear, hypersonic deployment if Sweden and Finland join NATO WWW.REUTERS.COM One of Russian President Vladimir Putin's closest allies...

Not as many years but I've never heard of it (that I can remember) seen it or used it. To the op, is there any reason to use it instead of say a bowline or barrel knot? -
Sad but true. It will also lead to more children being born with severe defects and more children born into extreme poverty and neglect. I wonder if those poor kids will be looked after by the state? Abortion isn't always about the best interests of the mother. It's a pity that those who made the rules probably won't have to experience any of that first hand. Not to worry though as I'm sure the US citizens will rise to their oppressors as they do like to bang the old 'The elites just want to control us by taking away our freedoms and rights' drum.

I think that maybe the problem. Nowhere near enough water. I'm going back nearly 30 years(so advice may have changed a bit) but in my horticulture lessons leaving sacks or any kind of transport container in place was a big no no. I dunno if you can dig them up and remove it but it doesn't look like you have much to loose. As above, 30 secs of watering will probably wet the first few inches of soil at best.

Things have been back to normal for quite some time from what I have seen. Thank fook. The fact that people do seem to give a bit more space when out in public is no bad thing imo. Far better than folks breathing down your neck when queuing in asda, sorry I meant waitrose. All that goes out the window, on my part, when grabbing a beer from the bar down the local like.

Im not being funny but you did remove the plastic or fabric sack that they probably arrived in? It does look like lack of water as others have suggested. As also suggested they aren't going to make any kind of decent hedge. I'd pull them out, plant more a bit further away from the fence to not piss the neighbours off. Unless they don't mind like. Leylandii hedges are the root of many a neighborly dispute but then again so are plenty of other tree species.

I have seen I few cherry trees like that but they were still surviving quite well the last time I saw them.
-
Fair enough. Tbh I haven't read all your threads and posts on the subject so im not sure what questions you want answering or what information you're giving out. FWIW from what I have observed it doesn't kill healthy trees but it does smoother and surpress the growth of new plants.
-
I could point you in the direction of some decent weed killer but I don't want to derail the thread with big farmer. Ivy, it sucks when you have to remove it. That's all I have on the subject.

Just reading back through this thread and saw your post. I hope the guy is ok, any news on him and his family?
-
Nasty for sure but if your determined you will be able to climb again. I hope you heal well and certainly don't write yourself off.
-
Well said.
-
I would say it's a bit more serious than strimmer damage. Keep an eye out for any fungi this autumn. Some pics of the crown when it comes into leaf would be worth while posting.
-
Looks good, be sure to post some pics/videos up of it in use.

Well at least I can appreciate that every time she came back with a bigger saw her arse stuck out that little bit further. I think that this is the most important thing to take away from this educational video, in my professional expert opinion of course.

I know that there are some upsides but I can't think of any right now as I still have a banging headache from homeschooling during the first lockdown.

Narrr. I don't think they blagged climate change due to forecasting an east west split. I doubt China and a hell of a lot of western business will allow an Iron curtain to fall, no matter what. Putin will be bulleted long before that happens. I just think that Putin is taking back what he wants (although not very well atm) and no one is going to stop him due to the threat of nuclear war which I think there is zero chance of happening. Time will tell.

I can see your point but I would hazard at a guess that if there was heave after the removal of trees an insurance company would soon be tapping on your shoulders. I have no clue as to what the costs are for repairing damage from heave but someone has to pay and I reckon the finger would soon find out who was responsible. Anywho if a customer did raise the issue and did have concerns about heave I would point them in the direction of a consultant, just to cover my back, like.

I'm surprised at how many people need a 600 million dollar yacht. Abramovich has two of them! I suppose it keeps a lot of people in work like.
-
Maybe so. I've dropped many a tree due to subsidence but never been involved in or know anyone who has taken a tree out which had caused heave. I'm not saying that it doesn't happen but as Mark J said it must be extremely rare. Besides is it even a big deal? Once the house has settled you repair it and job done. If there is potential for heave what do you do? I imagine you still take it out and then deal with the consequences. Insurances companies usually just want a quick fix.
-
If felling a tree of that size within that proximity to a house would cause heave then nearly all of us would be bankrupt from being sued to death. Just out of interest has anyone had any personal comeback from heave due to work that they have carried out?

Heave on what, the wall?
