On a more serious note, do you subscribe to these theories (yes you will need to watch it:001_tt2:) Would like to hear someone else's opinions on it:biggrin:

V.T.A symptoms "the chatty trees"
RobArb replied to Tony Croft aka hamadryad's topic in Tree health care
I like the bit round 27-29mins where he kind of goes off on a tangent after a question about dynamic wind loads, basically saying that trees with small reductions where prone to higher wind loads on the stem as they didn't have as many flexible branches absorbing the dynamic forces:biggrin: -

Yes it was very spongy (the bracket), is lucidum hard? Not sure on the pop and I admit the photos aren't great, was too busy trying to get it off the road:001_rolleyes:, will try to get back to it Sent from my Galaxy S2

Managing Trees with Decay & Dysfunction
RobArb replied to David Humphries's topic in Tree health care
Thanks for the opinions David and Guy. Yes David there is another beech tree next to the other one that in my opinion needs habitating as its in a worse state (is not as big, see pic) Will try to set some wheels in motion. Sent from my Galaxy S2

Is yours being filmed and documented? Sent from my Galaxy S2

I hope I do, but the trip is more about helping the people over there understand how important their trees are to them, and the interaction with the local villages in the community. A completely different way of life, and probably one that'll be a real shock to the system, in a good way:thumbup1: Sent from my Galaxy S2

Yes geoff it is:thumbup1:

Managing Trees with Decay & Dysfunction
RobArb replied to David Humphries's topic in Tree health care
Opinions on this one... Large mature beech, lots of crown die back, riddled with ganoderma in most of the buttress roots, party of the back aside of the trees stem is "spongy" to 2m, within falling distance of a school boundary line and b&b car park but on the inside edge of mini woodland setting in a large park, daldinia, pluerotus, auricularia and possibly honey (not confirmed) present too.
