  1. I guess I should really link in the grifola thermo assesment to this?
  2. cool, shall bring em with me, its going to be a good meeting with some of my mates showing up
  3. thanks sean, should have put it in there last week
  4. Phaeolous can be a very variable bracket fungi, ive seen it in so manty forms its a wierd fungus:thumbup1:
  5. Im going to suggest Phaeolus, the colour is all wrong but can tell this is mostly daylight settings within the cameras IA mode
  6. I wont, sofas yours mate, I suspect youll be drooling over the library while your here too, theres plenty to go at!
  7. read this last week, nice post sean, get it on the nev/ted papers thread
  8. Sorry sean im so skint right now I cant afford the postage! ive got five or six books due out and Im feeling pretty bad about it at the minute. This happens to me all too often, I go nuts for events CPD and ATF events, unpaid days and trips to romania its crunch time right now! Got one last jolly with the ATF at Hatfield then a winter of paying the price 7 days a week for a summers fun and learning! and next year i will do it all over again! you know why, cos I blooming loves it, money just cant compensate this life I live, broke and happy as a pig in the proverbial!
  9. ha, spikey teeth not upper:thumbup1:
  10. In the U.K we have a great oportunity to prevent these things, were an island. One port, one control agency is the answer Im still working out the legal side and how we could practicaly deal with this situation. a ban on imports may not be achievable as crazy as it sounds, the french have already been stung in trying apparently. when I know a LOT more about the details I will come back to this, I was sent a reality check last night so got some work to do.
  11. Hydnum repandum is the latin name by the way, could not think how to spell it earlier!
  12. the connies looking fine, no scorching, no dessication of foliage, might even have made a little growth! lmao got back to check on her today, bit of hedging for same client.
  13. Is this issue JUST about ONE pathogen? Do you know how lax the border is on this kind of thing? do you know how many pathogens and issues have been shipped from this source in the last thirty years? go look it up and then tell me. Im sorry but your response was a bit pessimistic, i choose optomism and its not just about this one disease
  14. no threat to the tree enjoy
  15. the hedghog fungus WELL DONE!
  16. keep me posted mate really need this one in the bag, havent checked mine but suspect it was aborted due to the dry, its been weeks dormant:thumbdown: and yours look like hama standard blooms!
  17. and to think I was going to go to a special site to check on a sparasis for you! thought you loved me too, lol
  18. it was daedalea! not a stumper! lol nice podos, you promised me a ring you toad! are they still good?
  19. is that podo in last image?
  20. I guess what were asking is "what IS ethical forestry"?
  21. Ethical forestry? O.k im not going to rip into this one, suffice to say show me ethical forestry that turns that much profit. it does NOT exist, though it may one day when all the old forests are gone
  22. I have to admit that seeing Phaeolus on broadleaf genera is a first for me, so big thanks
  23. good shout that David, though my connections abroad from the inside of the trade have me pretty well clued up. you got an email for Keith:thumbup1:
  24. oh thats alright then lets just keep taking one up the rear then shall we?
  25. indeed, it would have been prudent to do a blanket ban, get them boys to sort their shoddy practice out and kick start a bounce back in the U.K nursery scene which is much in need! still, its a start
