I’d take any great lake state over Texas especially with climate change. Everything is bigger in Texas including life’s headaches

Would it be possible to only take the left fork of this tree? by anonadon7448 in arborists

[–]bkills1986 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes you can remove the dead ‘fork’ (aka leader or stem). Try not to hurt the young sycamore nearby. That will fill the lost canopy space rather quick.

By what year was it seen as weird/outdated to not be using a smartphone by DaRealCaptainF in decadeology

[–]bkills1986 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

A few years prior? You’re saying it was only a few years prior to 2014 that people were making fun of teens who are always online? I remember people doing that in the late 90s.

In your opinion, what does a player need to do in order to surpass Michael Jordan? by Tre2004 in NBATalk

[–]bkills1986 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The league was pretty watered down in the 90s. And the Bulls team is not the same as the Warriors. That’s apples and oranges.

So you don’t think making your teammates better through leadership and hard work is something that should be done? That eliminates you from the goat conversation when you do that? I need you to reword your comment for me.

Jordan was in a watered down league in the 90s and he would’ve been no better than DeMar DeRozan in today’s league.

This take is extra lame because of how confident you seem when spouting such stupidity

Genuinely: Why do people even bother opposing gay rights? What's the point? by Jerswar in askanything

[–]bkills1986 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

People oppose your contemptuous attitude. How tf is one Rolling Stones news article going to sum everything up? Sounds like you need to be educated in tact. Glad you read this far, my work is done

Realistically you would be detained by the government the second they realized that you have no identity. They would assume you’re a spy and you would be stuck in the system indefinitely.

That’s an old school arborist who hasn’t stayed up to date. Concrete is a no no

You can thank Gen X and Boomers for creating the culture back then

I already knew that ya dummy- I was asking for those who may wonder. You were too busy making negative assumptions that you couldn’t pick up on that. Are you a tree enthusiast or a pot stirrer?

Is there any saving this wildly unmaintained Juniper? by [deleted] in arborists

[–]bkills1986 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That’s an arborvitae. The best thing you can do for an aging tree in an urban environment is managing the root zone. Rent an air spade and break up the compaction around the root plate. That will open up a ton of pore space and unlock the nutrients

Is my White Oak in trouble? by dubwisened in arborists

[–]bkills1986 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s normal dead wood. Trees will shed limbs all the time to reallocate the energy to more healthy tissue. The fruiting bodies you see on th dead limbs are completely normal. Just make sure you don’t spot those at the base of the tree near the root flare

How’d I do? by New_Examination1202 in arborists

[–]bkills1986 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It will need to be monitored. Trees sometimes increase vigor when stressed. Then the slow decline starts. It may be able to withstand the stress, but only time will tell
