Gary Prentice replied to David Humphries's topic in Ecology
That would be nice, I don't really fancy a couple of 500 mile round trips, even to listen to Ted Green for an evening Come Mr Humpheries, you're a man of influence, get it sorted -
A drive by?

Can you imagine the consequences to his employer though, if he'd had an accident? There's plenty of cases where the employer has ensured that staff were supplied with the correct equipment and training and still ended up on the wrong side of the HSE Just saying like.

Loads of vids on YouTube start off just like that...

Managing Trees with Decay & Dysfunction
Gary Prentice replied to David Humphries's topic in Tree health care
I’ve never seen that adaptation in sycamore, in mostly urban situations. Could the lack lack of environmental stresses be a significant decider between adapting or dying? -
I’ve been watching YouTube videos of open heart surgery, hours and hours of them, I’ve read a couple articles too. Ive now ordered some scalpels and a suture kit. Who wants to be my first patient? It don’t look that hard

Run it on aspen, it’ll be alright.

When you’re saying that there is root barrier, is it actually a structure specifically installed as a root barrier, or simply a continuous mass poured foundation?

My understanding is that if you're changing traffic flows by occupying the highway someone somewhere is going to want cash for it. I've just enquired about a temporary parking restriction and I think the cost for putting up no parking signs is £800 + Vat, which doesn't include the TM side of no-parking cones (another department and more money). When I say £800, that's because the form had a number of options up to £2500 and I'm hoping the parking restriction is in the lowest category. As others have said in other threads, it's alright working without the necessary permits until something goes wrong.

I would have thought that birch was a lot less dense than the figures prove. every days a school day
-
Sorry, I didn't read it like that.

Eucalyptus is a hardwood. (a dicot angiosperm tree)
-
Table 5 of that document claims that birch has an oven dry density of 610 kg/cubic metre, compared with oak at 650. can that be right?

Any ideas what could be killing these hawthorns?
Gary Prentice replied to Woodworks's topic in Tree health care
Seems a lot to all be going at the same time, and then uprooting! How do the live ones look? Are the retrenching, parts of the canopy dead with other parts okay? They don’t look to have much in way of rootplate, are the roots live and broken, large vertical descending roots rotten? I would be concentrating on the roots I think, to find a cause -

Has the land got a lot wetter? Even dead, falling over within a few years like that makes me think the soils waterlogged, roots have rotted and over they go.
