  2. Tony Croft aka hamadryad
    nonsense, this beech was done in its entirety with a 150 and 10 inch bar,
  3. Tony Croft aka hamadryad
    hello stranger, hows things:thumbup1:
  4. Tony Croft aka hamadryad
    I had 2 large ash to fell this week and found some decay in the butts which was clearly Armillaria, so I dissected it a little and got these cracking shots.

    The big beech from the first page, 3 years growth, now, what did I say about proving my point over the years! very little extension, but a great deal of internal budding and ramification. For some reason I am never close by when she is in leaf! though its good bare for illustration purposes.
  6. Tony Croft aka hamadryad
    hadnt really thought about it like that,
  7. Tony Croft aka hamadryad
    would be interested to hear anyones usage levels with a gas fired oven as well? im going over to a log stove/boiler combo soon this could mean propane gets me off the gas line altogether:thumbup1:

    used this saw with a ten inch bar to reduce a truly massive beech the other day, 10 inch cuts in a few laces mostly 4-5inches. I was MUCH better with a 10 inch bar, and I think it is my new all time fave saw!
  9. Tony Croft aka hamadryad
    so glad to hear its not getting felled, be a good roost site as a pollard too
  10. Tony Croft aka hamadryad
    well you can include monocultured forests and avenues to that definition, the laws an ass because one can use enterpretation
  11. Tony Croft aka hamadryad
    Yes accses to the facility is open to members of the BMS during the open day as long as its arranged before hand:thumbup1:
  12. Tony Croft aka hamadryad
    gibossa has more blocky/angular pores in general not ruling it out, it cant be Bjerkandera Fumosa either the big bro of adusta, as there is no dark line above the pores
  13. Tony Croft aka hamadryad
    nice one David
  14. Tony Croft aka hamadryad
    nice addition to the thread that one, long term documentations are the way forward, thanks for posting. dont think you really did it much harder than last time, and I would personaly have brought the sides in a bit more in both counts for two reasons, one to get more light in round a smaller overall profile, and two to make climbing easier on a return visit as a broad crown is much harder to work
  15. Tony Croft aka hamadryad
    I know about this one, a corporation immune from prosecutions,
  16. Tony Croft aka hamadryad
    This video is awesome, and totaly inspiring, best lecture, community/sustainability solutions ive ever heard [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H6b7zJ-hx_c]Redesigning Civilization -- with Permaculture - YouTube[/ame]

  19. Tony Croft aka hamadryad
    Im not as bonkers as you think, I may play the part at times, its fun to play with it. The Fall of the Dollar - The Death of a Fiat Currency part 1 - YouTube
  20. Tony Croft aka hamadryad
    who rattled your cage?
  21. Tony Croft aka hamadryad
    and for those that was interested in the way i started my spuds off, the egg boxes proved inferior, got some lovely shoots and roots coming off the soiled ones and no shriveling on them either, seems far better for an early start. my peas and cabbages are off to a flying start but desperatley want them out in the garden, the cold is doing my nut!
  22. Tony Croft aka hamadryad
    Ive seen a lot of references to this pumice/rockdust supplement and it all seems to add up. Would make sense as its a more readily avaliable mineral content, though its really only needed if there is deficiencies, over introduction of elements tip the other way so always worth checking out whether or not your soil or rather plants are deficient, not as complicated or expensie as you might think.

    for me, the Ailanthus nigra is an impressive site, close to the lake
  24. Tony Croft aka hamadryad
    there is always going to be some spores on a dry old bracket:thumbup:
  25. Tony Croft aka hamadryad
    im only just getting into the cultivation side of things so :thumbup1:you top me!
