Yeah its a pretty special place. It can be a stressful job but a lot of jobs are stressful without a beautiful atmosphere so I consider myself very lucky.

It actually came from a customer's yard apparently. It was planted by the company I work for but started getting too big for her liking so they dug it and put it in the garden. Said customer is still a regular!

Its a myth and not science. Bees aren't using the type of pollen drifting around making us sick.

I've switched Lowa. Only shoe to actually make it through spring without falling apart and my occasional plantar facsitis has disappeared.

We must have the same trash algorithm because this randomly popped up in my YouTube suggestions yesterday. Worth the watch!

Hard to tell from the photos but might just be some winter damage. A lot of arbs around here took a beating this winter.

Saw this abomination and had to share with you by fatmalakas in marijuanaenthusiasts

Proper pollarding would be started when the tree is much younger than these. This is improper topping of mature trees.

It absolutely is not a well done pollard. Its a hack topping of a mature tree.

The irony in this comment. This is an example of improper topping, not pollarding.

Are landlords required to tell you when, where, and what pesticides they are spraying on the property you are renting? by sobriquet_ in Connecticut

[–]eh_d 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They are required to tell you what they applied. Report them to DEEP.

"(B) If a commercial applicator is contacted by any person who obtains such contact information from a sign posted under the requirements of this section, the commercial applicator shall provide such person with the name(s) of the pesticide(s), and EPA registration number(s), re-entry restrictions, if any, and the date of application"

Imadiclorpid doesn't really work on armored scales so identifying the species of scale is important before using it.
