I noticed yesterday a couple large red maples up the road from me are turning colors at the very top of their canopies. We had several days last...
That would make sense considering your elm with the bark still attached looks like it split reasonably well.
I'm buying into the elm theory now... question is, what kind? The American elm around here has more of a silvery bark, but I know growing...
I’m stumped. Looks like you’ve got 3 types of wood here. I’m reasonably sure I see at least one ash round, and the inside of these splits looks...

I haven’t heard them in almost 20 years! The few CDs/cassettes I had of them either got lost or damaged. Good thing YouTube is chock full of all...
I can appreciate and identify with the spirit behind living that lifestyle, but no sympathy for someone squatting on an individual’s private...
I’ve seen it often in red maple too, and the tree sometimes makes a rough spiderweb looking canker around the infected area to wall it off....
Last fall was my first experience with Tulip (Yellow) Poplar. Some people won't waste their time with it but I happen to like the stuff. Dries...
Good looking stuff LordOfTheFlies :yes: When I see knotty/gnarly splits like that, I see them destined for long brutally cold overnight burning.
(In my UNprofessional opinion) I’d give the trees a chance, but that’s just me. Some people would argue you’re just sustaining future EAB...
The soonest any of the oak from next door will be burned is the 2023-2024 season. That’ll be the 3+ year mark. I could always let it go longer but...
Ash has been a staple for me for a while, and has helped me immensely in reaching the 3+ year plan. I’ll find out about Norway maple firsthand in...
Here’s a couple more that I found within the past year or so. I have more squirreled away where my wife can’t harass me about them :) The large...
Especially in my cramped raised beds. I’m surprised I went as many years as I did without an incident like this. Sweet, spicy, super hot,...
That looks like it could be a Connecticut Champion Tree. You could always submit it to these people:...
So here’s a first for me with peppers. I save seeds year to year of varieties I like. This year I had some bell peppers on one plant that were on...
Anyone else into collecting vintage glass bottles? I have a small collection of a couple dozen bottles from the early 1900s to the mid 1950s....
If you get another one how about a nice pair of wood chuck slippers? :thumbs:
The more I read about the story of the American Elm, the more I want this lone straggler on my property line to survive. I really don't see them...
