I own these tanks, and the cost of burial on my lot was way too high. it would have about 150 ft from the house to bury and i KNOW there is bedrock pretty close to the surface. cost prohibitive, and no room for above ground that far away.
Thanks for the welcome!!! When I get a chance I will find an overhead pic of my farm. I believe every ash tree on the place is dead. I can't cut them fast enough, they are rotting standing up! Looks like a graveyard from above. Bush honeysuckle is taking over. I recently rented a brush hog for my skid steer and started clearing. Made a dent. In a couple weeks I'm gonna rent a Kubota SVL 95 with their biggest cutter and use it for an entire weekend. I need to give the new small trees a chance to take hold, ash in this part of the woods is history though.
Off subject...why is it we will get up on a Saturday at 5am, have coffee, maybe breakfast, load the truck with saws, axes, fuel, oil, all with a giant smile on our face heading out to cut some firewood? Come Monday when we have to head out to work for someone else you couldn't roust us outta bed with 10 sticks of dynamite...
Finally got to it. It's a screen shot. My farm and lake. If you seen brown in the woods it is dead ash trees. No hope.
Probably won't be long till that's the way our place will look. You been planting any new species? I'm trying to figure out some sort of strategy myself.
The goal is to kill all the bush honeysuckle. Evil stuff! The state even pays us to eradicate it. I'm hoping the oaks take over, I have a great stand of many varieties. I was watching deer stomp on burr oaks that have fallen in my yard tonight. The stomp them to open them up, sorta comical.
Didn't realize the bush honeysuckle was considered an invasive species. I have many here, love the smell when they bloom. Was considering propagating some, might have to rethink that. Not many oaks on our property, mostly ash, then maple, a decent stand of shagbark hickory, just a handful of oak and black walnut.
The goal is to kill all the bush honeysuckle. Evil stuff! The state even pays us to eradicate it. I'm hoping I think you are ok. The good stuff is a vine, the bad is a bush. I love the smell of real honeysuckle! Just grab a handful and throw it down, the roots propogate everywhere it touches the ground. I'll dig up a pic
Hard to cut down cause it's so tangled... skid steer with a brush hog wears it out! But it will grow back. The state recommends a chemical mixed with diesel fuel to spray on the
