  1. Hi Leigh I must admit its not all been boring and I have found the soil science a bit more relevant recently, although plant cell biology and particularly the genetics has been daunting. I think that once the second year starts i will need to put more time aside than i have been recently for study. Beer is always a good idea. Callum
  2. Hi Martwizz I'm also on 1st year FDSC online, and I do agree that feedback is slow and certain lecturers can be a bit pedantic (i'm 40 in May with 23 years in arb/forestry and don't take appreciate being treated like a 16yr old, even if I behave like one). I would like to take a year out but not sure if I could afford to. Several of my colleagues completed the FDSC last year and confirmed that the first year is the most boring so perhaps I 'll just hang in there for now. Looking forward to learning something about trees next semester, particularly pests & diseases. Not sure about the woodland management module though as I used to be a forestry manager and I fear a clash of ideas, so perhaps I'll just bite my tongue and be a good little student. Stick in there buddy:thumbup1:
  3. Doh, Sciadopytyis posted a picture of some rather nice brackets several metres up on a Beech stem, I only said G pfeifferi because of the laquered appearance, the host and location of the fruiting body, the underside colour has thrown me a bit though, any ideas Monkeyd.
  4. Could possibly be Ganoderma pfeifferi - Beeswax bracket although the underside is usually yellower in my limited experience.
