  1. Done same, but also sprayed garlon into the ring as well. Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk mobile app
  2. That's a coincidence, a client asked me about this yesterday on his tree. exactly the same as your photos. I was a bit unsure myself?
  3. I ring barked a Turkey Oak, the following growing season the whole tree was covered in epicormic growth before it died. Not a nice thing to do to a tree, but was done to create standing dead wood.
  4. With private clients and some large contracts I avoid stating how long a job will take, that's a lesson for the future. Somewhere along the lines of the quote something has gone wrong, between the pair of you can you meet some middle ground. What ever it is I would want some payment for the work done not walk away with nothing. If they refuse after that I would say they are trying it on.
  5. Utterly tragic, poor bloke.
  6. Tell them, it's the right thing to do or otherwise it may play on your mind for ages? Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk mobile app
  7. Very true what Sal said, i have worked on Glastonbury Tor many times spraying and some tree work at the base and that is one place I have had abuse and I have had a female working with me and it's always been me they have had a go at. Bloody hippies!! Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk mobile app
  8. Tell the the land owner you can't use glyphosate in summer for stump treating as it will not work as the sap flow is active. Only works in winter when sap is not flowing. Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk mobile app

  20. I have always used Grazon 90 on Nettles and it works, but be careful not to get it on anything you don't want killed
  21. I have to say my biggest gripe that frustrates me you got a full load of chippings pulling a chipper and you leave a good breaking distance in front of you and some numpty over takes you and fills up the gap. Agree with Adam you need one sometimes front and back of car. Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk mobile app
