Chopping down Conifers
Get a second opinion from someone that understands tree biology. They might
point something out that makes sense to you. Its a shame that you hate trees. Other than that hire a professional to do the job. -- Sincerely, John A. Keslick, Jr. Consulting Forester & Tree Expert http://home.ccil.org/~treeman and www.treedictionary.com Beware of so-called tree experts who do not understand tree biology. Storms, fires, floods, earthquakes, and volcanic eruptions keep reminding us that we are not the boss. "J15ess" wrote in message ... Hello, My first post here! How, when and what is the best way to chop down Conifers? We have several (rather overgrown) ones in our new garden. I hate them with a passion anyway, but these are making a decent garden feel very, very narrow. Thanks, Jess -- J15ess |

Storms, fires, floods, earthquakes, and volcanic eruptions keep reminding us that we are not the boss. Do not trust or believe this individual, he bears false credentials. Don't believe a word I say. Believe it because you see it for yourself. I often make decisions on woodlands and forest. I do my best to make decisions based on tree biology. I would suggest that you go to Don Staples site and see how he defines a forester (dead link), let alone a forest. His main goal is getting the wood out and board feet. NO TREE BIOLOGY! http://www.livingston.net/dstaples/forestry/staples.htm One of my main objectives is to leave as much wood as possible behind when working on a tree farm. We try to give the wood soil contact. Brush pile are also great for wildlife. Its how much you leave that makes you successful. That article mentioned by Don Staples is here. http://www.treedictionary.com/DICT20...th5/index.html Beware of so called forester, like Don Staples, that refuse to define what a forest is and what a forester is. He lacks the knowledge of tree biology and does not belong making decisions on trees and their associates. He likes to attack people who try to help others understand. He claims that logging makes a forest healthy! How absurb. Just for starters http://www.treedictionary.com/DICT2003/SOUND/ I have also put together some sites to help people with many common problems for trees in an urban setting. I do not believe in a "urban forest". Many tree problems are associated with the following: They are Case Sensitive.
