    Nice!

    Sure...we're all in for the money, isn't it? And you can become a real fat pig if you just slay every tree you get your hands on and give'em what they want. and about starving....well sometimes it's good not to eat much, it cleans your body and your mind too. :lol: Good news Treepanda, and if it works just go on. Then you can't always win, sometimes it's all about compromise.

    Had the same on a couple of maples last week. A little bit more south than you, but still unusual

    For small trees I use a Schwabisch on my mini rope and I really enjoy it! It just gives a different taste to small pruning jobs.

    I'm not so sure. There are Trametes on a Prunus sativa in that garden. They look different from the one on the cherry, where the teeth are much more evident even on the small ones. A couple of pics of the fungi on the Prunus sativa.

    They are suckers for sure. Thanks for the expert advice. I owe you a couple of beers. Or just Pm me the details of your bank account if that's not enough...:lol:

    Plenty of Prunus, Pears and Apple trees I have to prune there so.... Any particular reason? or a choice related to the condition of this cherry? A little derail. Near that cherry there is the stump of another Malus , with a Ganoderma Applanatum on it.( seems to me, I'm not a Fungi Master like you ) Another little Malus is growing there. It's healthy and last year it has made big nice apples. Will the Ganoderma affect the growing of this young tree fast or not? What do you think? Thanks again.

    Thanks David. No mulch yet, but I will do it soon. Pruning out the dead material? Do you mean the damaged branches or the infected bark? After removing the damaged branches there would be only the trunk left. And about removal, it's a small tree, there's no target and it gives very good cherries so... I think I will leave it to the course of Nature ( the costumer agrees) and keeps taking photos of the Hericium

    Here the fungi pics.

    Found this on a Cherry tree (Prunus Avium), approximately 25-30 years old. The tree was badly topped and "reduced" a few years ago. Now here is the bill... It is suffering injuries from sunscald and now the fungi ( I guess it's Hericium...) is doing its job. Any idea on how to try to slow down the process and help to reduce the stress? Can mycorrhizae help? First pic is the tree under the last snow. Thanks Marcello

    Just got through this thread. My set up is very very similar to yours. Only difference is that I use a pulley with a schwabisch prussik instead of a chinch. I 've had the same problem with the weight on the duck a few times .... not nice... It's true it works well for keeping up the excessive lanyard , but when you need more rope it's not always so smooth and easy ... I'd like to find something better then the duck but haven't solved the problem yet.

    Coos bay , page 309of the Fundamentals. A great read. And surely easier for you :.......not even one of the best treebooks have been translated in italian yet.. And reading in english after a good day of treework...well...

    There's no face cut in the Coos bay.

    Some more

    Another firm came down with a nice chipper... Here some pics

    Most of the trees were damaged or burnt at the base. You can see some in the video. Not to talk about the cans, broken bottles and stones everywhere. That place was really a mess. Cleanin'up around the base of every little tree (includin sprouts and little twigs) to cut a little lower would have taken much more longer.

    Nothing too special... just wanted to play a little bit with my new helmet cam. A site clearance job I've been helping out on. Can anyone help with embedding the video? I'm just able to insert the link. Thanks
  19. Langur
    Yes, helmet cams are very simple and easy to use. Editing videos is just another pair of shoes ... but maybe that's just me
  20. Langur
    Classic old style. Cheap too.
  21. Langur
    Which way? To each his own . I stick to my heavy comfy Irons

    Can't really understand why people are so crazy about distel spikes...I sold mine to buy a pair of Buckingham. They're so much more comfortable, no comparison at all
  23. Langur
    Yeah

    I was deadwooding some Cedars today and I noticed this little Rhus Typhina trying to go somewhere....

    The leaves turning to yellow make me think about Laurel Stem Canker. Don't know if that is the correct name in english but that is how we call it here. Pathogen should be Sphaeropsis malorum Berk Botryosphaeria obtusa (Schw). There should be signs of the disease on the stems too, not only on the leaves.
