With what, doughnuts?

With socialization. You are a doughnut with problems.


Again I want to make it perfectly clear, lucid, I am into "non-violent
direct action". I will settle for no less.

I think you are one of those people that hate trees as well as their
associates. See this is a gardening news group. Don't they have a news
group for people like yourself? What is your goal here? What is you
objective? What are you and what is your topic. Why are you talking to
me?
Pruning woody plants, i.e., plants made up of mostly cellulose that
compartmentalize and seal pruning wounds if desired, and done correctly
was
the topic. What is going through you mind? Why are you hear? What is
your
purpose or need their of? You babble and so does Don Staples.


Um, I think if you think about it for a second I have given plenty of
helpful replies to people without self promotion of my website, as you
have. I don't answer questions with non- sequiturs as you do,
constantly. I have plants on my property approximately ten trees and
this is a property which is half acre and had three old growth, climax
live oaks which are numbered and registered with the county. If I cut
them down there is a ten thousand dollar fine per tree.

I have a complete understanding of what a fungal mat is, as well as a
rhizophere, which has nothing to do with minor weeds found in mulch. I
have read books written by everyone from Ruth Stout and Sara Stein, to
Dirr and never once have I found any of these experienced
professionals blather on about what you seem to blather on about.

We GET it. You have a website. You love yourself. You love your
"scientific" findings. You are a tree surgeon. Great. However, many
of the times you reply, it has NOTHING to do with the question.

I also believe in non-violence. I am not violent myself. Not even
toward an insect. I know how to prune trees, I sent photos to you and
you ignored them. I showed you the "donut" growing inward over the
properly cut limb outside the tree collar.

Shush up already. Go find a tree newsgroup because nothing you post
here has anything to do with gardening.


Why not get together and dissect some of your doughnuts. Your wounds were
big and I was not sure of them. My ignorance. I would have to dissect like
I did with the peach tree.
