  1. If it's due to injury and not fungal then you may need another treatment. A lot of trees heal over and recover. I know the tree company Gene uses has used a bark sealment around damaged areas of his horsechestnut tree.
  2. Congrats on the 50s this morning.
  3. You can try some mud packs on the cankers. That’s what they do to keep american chestnut trees with blight alive. https://www.acf.org/ma-ri/the-project/mudpacking-cankers/ There’s more pics and vids of the process online. I’d assume you’d have a better success rate than that with chestnuts.
  4. Oh I agree. I think we bulge back warm with heat wave potential following the few day cool shot. No disagreements there. I just thought you said you saw +16C day 7 through 9. But it wouldn’t surprise me if d7 and especially d8 verify warmer come verification as the amount of time the cold tries to hang on and wedge in looks a bit fraudulent.

  6. Definitely looks a little weird during the dormant season without snowcover (April and Nov/Dec). And yeah, it’s not an overnight fix. I’d probably just overseed before the first snow. Come spring it’s ready to go once the glacier is gone. I’d stay away from planting zoysia via seed too.
  7. I think I went through zoysia farm. Looks like they had trouble with their harvest and are out for the season. But here’s their instructions... https://www1.zoysiafarms.com/plantzoy.jsp I pretty much put mine in bare spots and didn’t have to do a large area. Now that it’s established I can take my own plugs from that if I want. They’d probably take off even faster than the ones I had shipped. This was fall 16 to early fall 18. It’s pretty much full coverage this summer.
  8. Apparently some thought they were going to see low single digit 850s and sunny 60s for highs?
  9. 5 straight days of <= 10C 850s on today’s ec for here. Maybe even a damn damming?
  10. Wait...we're using ORH in Auggie? 62F
  11. 58F at both STEMs this morning! Congrats!
  12. Should be pretty dewy for all Wed and into Thursday. More 70-75 swampazz. Hopefully we bang. I need me some rain.
  13. I'll have to find the site where I got mine from.
  14. Nice...we'll take that in September. Pretty sure we toss those maps though when they look like that in DJF. I guess they're more reliable in the warm season despite worse error scores.
  15. I don't think you're much different than my location temp wise. Frequent snowcover will help it as well.I'd probably be more worried about zoysia in a frost/torch pocket like CON than up where I am.You could buy a sheet or two of plugs and just let them go. I will say my plugs in the back that I planted in loosened, bare soil took off a lot faster than the ones that I planted in the hard pack front that was already full of grass and weeds.
  16. I'd assume the correlations for the loading patterns in middle August aren't much different from those in July? ...i.e. not much correlation to + or - temps in our region depending on the NAO or PNA phase?
  17. Should be -2.2ish at CON after today.
  18. I thought the COC shot moderated? Just looked at the EPS and it still looks similar. No one should have taken a d10 op run a handful of days ago seriously. Steady as she goes on the ensembles. No one said frigid either. We don't do that anymore unless it's a rainy wedge following a shot of lower dews.
  19. Still 69.9F at 1030am. We take. Lots of happy folks this morning around town.
  20. Must’ve been some good radiation fog off the poop this morning.
