One of these. I’m sure you’ve seen them around. It’s my understanding the weeping branches are grafted onto a straight trunk for a rootstock but I...
Black cherry out here gets pretty twisty which can get frustrating. The only really bad time I had splitting cherry was some long-dead and...
Bit the bullet and went to TSC for some new front shoes (to the tune of $89/pc :hair:) gave it a quick wash and took it for a spin around the...
brenndatomu nailed it. :handshake: Dirty point contact. Fired right up and ran decent. [MEDIA]

Yesterday the governor of Connecticut requested a federal agriculture disaster declaration due to the frost a few days ago. It got down to 33 at...
I’m guessing 6-7 for you, unless we get hit with tornadoes/tropical cyclones. Then all bets are off :)
Only a couple more nights dropping into the upper 40s, then we're solidly into summer weather here. The pool is up, only a few more things to...
Definitely black locust. No experience here growing one from cuttings, but I have 3 planted along my property line that I grew from seeds. I see...
I can relate to the internal battle. See wood, think about how you need to take care of the wood you already have at home first, the devil on your...
I think Brad’s got it with Boxelder AKA Manitoba maple, ash leaf maple. Not something I’d go gaga over trying to score mountains of. I’d rate it...
