You must have missed the past few years of the yard boy recommending mulching for every possible condition or conditions of trees. Correct mulching is a natural requirement of trees of a forest. Do you have any understanding of tree biology? I think not. Don Staples has no clue as to the importance of correct mulching for the health of trees and their associates. Most tree problems are trouble in the rhizosphere. Troubles in the Rhizosphere http://www.treedictionary.com/DICT2003/shigo/RHIZO.html Don Staples claims that removing all wood from a site is restoration. http://www.livingston.net/dstaples/Services/salvage.htm Mulch comes in different gradations from fine organic material to large tree trunks with soil contact. Nurse logs provide water during drought. When trees do not have water during drought their energy reserves is reduced. Trees with energy reserves reduced are more likely to suffer from gypsy moths. Just one of many benefits of mulch. Enjoy the storm Don Staples. Other than gypsy moths and mulch comes the benefits of wood for forest health. here is an example of what your restoration work really is: Tree Farming and Related Problems http://www.treedictionary.com/DICT2003/SOUND/ Ok, then, Don Staples. Please provide data specific to Texas that states that your salvage and restoration work increases the health of a forest rather than what I state, which that is that your practice is deforestation. Please provide the page and paragraph number where your data can be found stating that you increase forest health by your salvage and restoration work.

mulch
Mulch when applied correctly can help trees acquire conditions for healthy
growth has they had when they got their genetic codes in a forest. Mulch comes in different gradations. Some people claim removing mulch from a forest is good for forest health (http://www.livingston.net/dstaples/Services/salvage.htm ). I strongly disagree.

Yours, John Desmond Enigma has the scoop on dehusking black walnuts; and drying them out. I'm not sure about driving a car over them. Maybe a tank, something with metal treads. My method was purely primitive. I had a large stone with a round depression in which the walnuts fit. Then to work with a good hammer, a light touch and a good pick. You quickly learn where to whack the nut, but you'll never get clean half pieces like with English walnuts. It's bits and pieces all the way and you wonder a dozen times "is this really worth it?" |

As mentioned earlier, more likely to be Webworms this time of the year. I came across this nice little book on Caterpillars while looking for something else: http://extension.missouri.edu/explor...ts/ipm1019.htm "IPM1019 Caterpillars in Your Yard and Garden, MU Extension" At the top of the page on the left-hand side there was a link to get a pdf version for free. It has pretty good color pictures and some reference. -- Leon Fisk Grand Rapids MI/Zone 5b Remove no.spam for email |
I anticipate they are delicious--aromatic and not absinthian like some English walnuts. They're admirable in accolade or brownies. They are a PITA to abstract from the shells, however, and never appear out whole.
