    in fact it would appear to be rapid growth in the tension woods due to the lean, a good sign not a bad one. if the tree was forming these on the compression side THEN its time to loosen the load a little.

    as scott says, this looks like a growth crack, wouldnt worry too much.

    they do, but im so used to it now, changing names etc I just go with it, as long as I keep up the seminars I get to find out what the new names are:lol: had to laugh when at Kew BMS meet the guys says "coprinopsis picacea" im like whats this? lol till he said oh yes your probably all still thinking calling coprinus! No wonder noone wants to take up mycology! worse than rocket science, at least a rockets name never changes!

    there is no limit to height for ganos, or rather as long as there is heavy wood, there can be ganos, for some reason gano at hieght is becoming increasingly common too. along with my first sighting of meripilus at hieght 30ft last autumn
