out back on my property is a fairly large oak which has 5 decent sized (24" or so) leaders all exiting the ground adjacent to each other I assume they are all connected to the same root system. 1 of the leaders has some storm damage at the top and a few dead limbs, I am considering cutting this single leader down for firewood, and possibly salvage a bit of lumber out of the lower trunk to try out my alaskan mill on, My question is will this have an adverse effect on the other leaders of the tree?
Thanks
