    In a similar situation is there any point in just felling poorest looking trees in hope some might be resistant or make life easy and just fell the lot ? This year they didn’t get any sicker looking and some may have rallied a little

    I have been getting lazy and putting mine into ventilated barrow bags. Saves time on the load up but they then need tipped out and put in buckets to get them into boiler swings and roundabouts they seem to dry out fine

    I’ve put whole willow thru mine and there was too much small stuff that didn’t really get cut up well and formed a loose tangly birds nest if there is two of you on the machine perhaps you could divert the small stuff as it starts to come thru into a waste pile/ sack??

    Got a Jotul no4 Easter island shape about 25 years ago as a stop gap and it’s still going door a bit loose and fire bricks need renewed was at some ones house with a modern woodburner and there did seem to be a useful difference in heat output as well as nice to have a glass door assume increased effiency would never pay for a new stove or be effective in terms of effort and co2 output (I gather and process my own wood) Quite fancy a change but is it just an indulgence any opinions? david

    Try growing them in a tall container so fly can’t get to them .fill it with a free draining sandy compost. Don’t let them dry out and you might be lucky or as mentioned head to your greengrocer

    I’ve reused a few tree shelters its very time consuming and the volume of tubes will be huge unless you pack them all back into each other. That will take ages nice idea but maybe not practical soz to be negative david
