Does anyone know of some industry value figures and statistics? Trees in Towns 2 only show LAs figures. Is there any industry values for the private sector too? LANTRA show some interesting ones but they include forestry. Nick
-
Im doing a research and stats project soon but not sure whether to use either beech or birch seeds with Ectomychorrizae. I think Birch seeds will be faster growing as its a pioneer species? Nick
-
Prune in dormancy when energy levels are high and the tree can 'afford' the loss.

Thanks gerrit!
-
cheers mate, never really thought about saprotropic decay tbh. Anyone else know about the blushing?
-
I was just wondering if anyone knew why Daedaleopsis confragosa blushes red after being handled? Or is there any online literature that may explain? Also most books say its a saprotroph, isn't it a white rotter too? How can it be both? (sorry if that sounds stupid!) Nick
-
Why do you think applanatum and not australe? Nick
-
If anything they have gone a very slight pink, definately not redish brown after scratching it. Are there any other possibilities, or do you think its Daedaleopsis confragosa? Thanks, Nick
-
David, What do you mean my bruising? When I push the spore tubes inwards they do not retract. Is this what you mean? Thanks! Nick

We discovered this fruiting body on a cherry a couple of weeks ago. I have been trying to ID it from quite a few books, can't seem to spot it. Any ideas guys? Nick
-
hamadryad, I was also thinking a Ganoderma project after recently reading the paper that you have posted on the Gano thread by F.W.M.R. Schwarze and D. Ferner. However finding 50 + specimens will definately prove difficult! Its still somthing to think about for a disitation though... Nick

Hi guys, Unfortunatly ive had to fell a young (20ish) oak today in my garden due to building work. We are looking to use the timber as part of the frame for the extention. What if any preparation should I be doing to the wood? Should i keep it inside/outside, covered, aerated etc? Thanks in advance
-
Gerrit thats really interesing stuff. How can you tell from that picture that its A. ostoyae and not A. mellea? Feel free to point me in another direction for literature. Nick
-

-
Ah hah! polyporus, of course i can see it now! Yea its definatly squirrel damage its just the bleeding i dont understand just yet, the mellea is on a separate site to the oaks. Any ideas of the mellea sp.?

Pictures 3 and 4 - Unknown 'oozing' on Q. cerris. Any ideas of cause/ info? Looks dry so poss bacterial? Pictures 5, 6 and 7 - Another 'oozing' on seperate Q. cerris Pictures 8 and 9 - Armillaria sp.?
-
Really basic question, getting confused and cant seem to find anything of google. Are these sp. G. australe and G. asdpersum the same? Nick
-
Thanks mate, thats a really good awnser actually. Sorry for the late reply!!
-

nice find! I like the mycena luxaeterna too, iluminating mushroom! There must be thousands more fungi species to be found underwater now surely?!
-
Hi guys, A few pictures to look at. Pic 1 + 2 Found on dead beech stem. Any idea of ID? Pic 3, 4 + 5 Ganoderma sp. Is the bracket small because of the small host (small log) Surely its not young because it has several stages of growth:confused1: Pic 6, 7 + 8 Bracket found on Q rubra. No idea of ident. Anybody know? Pic 9 Small growth that always seems to be on beech stems. not fungi obviusly but just wondered if it had a name/significance? Pic 9 Oak Gall ID? I was told what it was but forgot and cant find it anywhere! Nick
