    Hello all We soon have around 7-10 days work in Thatcham. As we are driving from North Dorset we'd like to find somewhere we can tip our chip off more locally to Thatcham or Newbury. We would very much appreciate it if anyone can help us with any contact details of a site we can use. Many thanks Nick

    Hi guys, I have an ash to be felled soon due to excessive stem decay. The crown has around a dozen burrs (P. syringae) of at least 30cm in diameter. I have someone that may be interested in purchasing them for turning but I have no idea what they are worth? Any ideas? I may be able to get some photos tomorrow if it helps. Any suggestions would be welcomed, thanks. Nick. Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App

    Another example I have seen, on an avenue of Lime in Shaftesbury, Dorset. Photo is taken straight from Google street view so its not present day. The four limes on the left (on the far side of the entrance) are always two weeks behind the rest of the avenue (on the right). Both in Spring and Autumn. I can't see how any of them would have different micro-climates. My only thought is that they may have been planted a year or two later and therefore from a different nursery. Only a guess though!

    Dear all I am collecting data for a dissertation and I am looking to find beech trees with Ganoderma fruiting bodies (which have not been broken off) to drill with a resistograph. If anyone knows of some potential sites in the North Dorset/South Wilts area OR Worcester/Evesham/Malvern area, I would be more than great full for your help. Any sites further afield would also be appreciated. I will also be looking for a freshly felled beech with Ganoderma decay for photo/resistograph comparison. Kind regards Nick Baxter

    Interesting article! Do we think this may have the same effect in our cities? With 10X the rate of growth and only 3X the rate of carbon uptake might the wood be less structurally sound? Nick

    Picture 1 - Unknown fungi on Betula, does anybody know? Picture 2 - Possibly Velvet Shank? Picture 3 - Same tree with what looks like the same fungi as from the betula in pic 1 Picture 4 - King alfreds cake (?) on Ash Picture 5 - Small colourful brakets on Quercus rubra, i instantly thought Daedalea quercina but im not too confident! Unfortunately i cant remember the pore shapes of the underside. ANy ideas?

    To make sure.. is Phellinus tuberculosus the same as pomaceus? How and why are these cankers formed from Phellinus Gerrit? Nick

    Hi Im hoping someone can answer a few questions to help me with a marketing assignment for my FdSc arb course. How much are the small red sacks of seasoned logs normally sold for? Are the ones sold at petrol stations over priced for their quality? Is there a specific size/name for the sack? Thanks! Nick

    Hi guys For a business and marketing module I need to find out some primary research about the selling of logs and woodchip. I was hoping to post a small questionairre on here (or the firewood part). Does anyone know how i can go about creating a questionairre or has anyone done this sort of thing before? Any advise is appreciated, Thank you Nick Baxter

    Hi guys I have this picture from last summer of a Q. robur leaf that has been mined. Is there anyway of telling which larvae species it is from the picture? Im guessing it must be from the Cameraria family, either hamadryadella (solitary) or Cincinnatiella (Gregarious). Thanks:thumbup:

    Thanks guys they are quality answers!

    Found this really interesting how a Fomes can actuially pro long the life of a beech. Im not 100% but my understanding is that instead of decaying the wood in patches, it is decayed in vertical segments allowing some of the crown to remain healthy? Please correct my mistakes?

    How are you so confident about this David? The fact of a whitebeam failing from the rootplate?
