Hello...
I have a couple questions.....
I have a hackberry, 90 yrs old, splitting down the main trunk, I've been thinking about some kind of band and/or chains to try and hold it together. Maybe above the split, pull the main branches back together. Would that work? Are there specific tools or methods that are applicable to this problem?
I have a nice maple, 12 years old. It keeps growing suckers at the ground level. I've cut them off, broke them off, but they just keep coming back. Some one told me to put "Roundup" on the cuts, and that would eliminate the problem. (My apologies to those with weak hearts.) I'm a farmer, and this sounds a little scary to me. Can we make them go away?
This is my first post on this great site, sorry if it's in the wrong place.
