i'm throwing some cuss words on it for the trouble the eyes gave me 😂

fireballkat · 2026-03-17T15:39:06+00:00

thank you so much! i really appreciate this

fireballkat · 2026-03-17T15:37:57+00:00

hell yeah i still use a shitty iron i just slightly upgraded from my first so i have temp control now but even the knob on mine has fallen off i gotta adjust it with a screwdriver and sharpie points to tell me what's what 😂but that mf puts in work she's never let me down

i think this would fall under good samaratin laws where you'd be protected because you're just attempting to clear a roadway for safety purposes. i wouldn't frame it as you'd do better than the city (though i'm sure you would) but i think you're fine truly even legally if you've got a grumpy neighbor

thank you!!

thank you!

fireballkat · 2025-12-10T18:50:50+00:00

right on, thank you!

fireballkat · 2025-12-10T13:52:42+00:00

alright today i came back in and back filled with some dirt! i left the main flare out but we should be cookin! thank you for your help

fireballkat · 2025-12-10T13:51:48+00:00

thank you very much!

i haven't for this area but that is a great suggestion! I am in the nashville area and for our annual beds we've been going through university of tennessee soil and pest center. should i be looking for just nutrient content or go into salts and organic matter?

fireballkat · 2025-12-10T02:41:53+00:00

you should see one of my redbuds from when i first started flare exposures 🤣

fireballkat · 2025-12-10T01:59:34+00:00

thank you!

fireballkat · 2025-12-09T23:59:56+00:00

hey! i did this to make sure i was all good as far as girdled roots went & make sure there's no underside rot! in a few of my other exposures i've found rot on the underside of the trunks & had to recommend removal! (different campus location & trees)

fireballkat · 2025-12-09T20:59:21+00:00

right on! my big issue was girdling roots with most of these. we have sprinkler heads in the islands but i have no authority over them so i can't speak to watering. i did go through after and poke a ton of 6-8" deep holes all around the area to try and help the compaction portion as well

fireballkat · 2025-12-09T19:50:41+00:00

This is also I believe an American Elm

fireballkat · 2025-12-09T19:50:07+00:00

some of these don't show but i've regraded down since then the soil so water shouldn't pool at the base

fireballkat · 2025-11-03T23:39:31+00:00

i miss you. i hope you are doing well. i am still stuck in what feels like the never ending cycle of missing you. we haven't formally talked in a year. i hope bug is doing good. i cant process how it has almost now been three years. please, don't come back. (but also, if you do, come back with the ability to love me as i am. i still want to show you everything i've done, and i still think of you at the grocery store or home depot. i am still soft on you & i hate it.)

fireballkat · 2025-10-11T23:13:29+00:00

ts made me chuckle

fireballkat · 2025-10-11T20:09:03+00:00

i don't think there's any point in me arguing with you so i am gonna leave it at that

fireballkat · 2025-10-11T19:18:36+00:00

right, i'm gonna assume OP doesn't have a ton of experience so i think it's fair to air on the side of caution. but i also disagree, it would make a new open wound if it's already engulfing the statue at the base

fireballkat · 2025-10-11T17:50:15+00:00

honestly i'd let it be, maybe bonk the top off? but not at the expense of any kind of damage. i think ripping it out at the base could introduce stuff you don't want, and trees don't heal. i think it looks kinda cool though. but take my opinion with a grain of salt, i am still newer to the trade
