    it may be partly down to enrolment "encouragement" but I suspect it is as much about the simple fact is, IF and its a BIG IF, your efficient, a quick thinker, and a good planner, you can make a lot of money, and go home early still in this game, not as much as we once did, theres a little competition around these days. but if your a little quicker, a little faster a little more efficient, more reliable, easier to work with, youll get more than the very vast majority. So it is TRUE you can earn a shedload of cash, but it is always going to be an exception to the rule, and they aint teaching the sort of skills in collage you need!

    whenever we kill something, we cause a vacuum that's nearly always far worse than the current scenario, we may succeed in slaying the foe, but in the same motion also kill our allies. that is the consequences of focusing only on ONE thing

    Actualy, ive dealt with many infected/colonised by very same fungi, in every combination, and even drove past one of them the last few days and its looking almost stress free now. nothing complicated but a light pruning to shorten transport distances

    I can assure you those Ganos (Lucidums) inside a cavity would have dried up and fallen off with or without you kiddo! They are annual, and light would not have effected them. as for what i am up to (and not Knocking your efforts at all, not in my nature) Its just an educated hunch at the moment, but when it isnt, you can rest assured there will have been enough controls etc to qualify the hunch:thumbup1:

    for what its worth i think the red stain on the pore layer is a mold, hence the stray Idents
  14. Tony Croft aka hamadryad
    seen australe on most things, even conifers like larch and applanatum also. That is also a distinct possibility but would expect it to have a more slanted pore layer:thumbup1:

    I'm pursuing a more realistic, effective and natural alternative:thumbup1:

    one might try altering ones perspective and seeing that the Armillaria is a symptom of the trees state rather than a pathogenic beast on the attack. try alkaline conditions......................................
  19. Tony Croft aka hamadryad
    Ha ha ha ha you would have to go a lot further for a lot longer to halt a colony:biggrin:
