As a 55 year old plumber in the Midwest I have no business being here but I’ve been a subscriber for at least 3 years and always give you a thumbs up and I always enjoy your vids even just for personal use. I have also changed the way I dig sewers (if possible) to give neighboring trees a better chance at survival. Before your videos I never even gave them a second thought, now I have a different set of eyes. Thanks for your efforts, you reach many folks!
Thank you. When I first started this channel (13 years ago), my intent was to provide easy to watch information for my clients. The channel took on a life of it’s own when a few of my videos took off.
You say you have no business being here, and yet here you are…. I’m sure there are plenty of plumbing channels you can subscribe to that showcase videos about plumbing or how to improve your plumbing skills & whatnot. We want ppl on here who are specifically into trees/gardening so that way we can have better discussions on these topics. I’m not trying to be rude but it’s a valid suggestion where everyone wins type of thing.
Thank you so much for all your content, you are so humble in your awareness, the world needs more teachers like you. I enjoy the view of the go pro on your helmet
There was another recent video entitled Pruning. But THIS was a good pruning tutorial. Methods of cut, choices of cut, prohibitions, hand tool choices and use, tool use and care, deadwood, weight reduction, caution for certain circumstances, professionalism, sanitation. I will refer pruning students to this episode. By the way, you spoke of a Japanese maple. Sometimes these bleed a lot when pruned in the springtime. Would you care to share any thoughts on bleeding trees?
I was planing to buy a chines pistach without fruits this weekend because they recommend for me , so happy i found this video. Can you recommend a tree that won’t lift up the garage and ruin pipes near house ? I recently removed my 80ft ash tree in S California, it was 6ft from the house and 35inches diameter and 80ft tall with a deck built around it. The county arborist told me to get rid of my ash tree from just a video I sent him. He said , ash has a slight lean , too close to house and tree will always do poorly with deck…. My backyard is so hot now !!! I need a tree that is about 40-50 ft , resist to pest drought tolerant, fast growing and roots won’t ruin my house or garage because I want to plant in between the 2 structures for shade.. I have been miserable since I lost my tree and I can’t even enjoy my beautiful backyard Pleas advise, thank you
Keeping the 'groundies' in mind when piecing down a limb shows, not only the extra safety aspects, it builds goodwill among the cats that have the job of clean up. It makes their job just that much easier. One lager branch can provide a great 'sled' for ALOT of smaller foliage. Yes, I'm guilty of whacking small deadwood stubs with a pull saw blade, just like MILLION other guys. I know flipping the saw to it's backside does the same thing just as well, but when you get going,..... I tend to 'forget'. Thank you, Blai (I just had to get that last one in, huh?, lol)
I had a climber once who was so fast, the ground workers couldn’t get in to keep things organized. When he hit the ground, he lit a cig and said, “ okay guys, clean it up”. Not a team player.

Great video! Your understanding of trees is obvious. I have a question about a Chinese pistachio that was girded by a big deer leaving only a few inches above the ground. I was going to replace but it grew so vigorously from just above the ground I couldn’t do it. My question is can I pick one of the best beaches and cut the rest and let that become the new tree? Will that work?
Branches? Yes but the form may be difficult to establish. If you train one and keep it straight, then it can work. Then again, how old are you? Would a new tree that has a head start be the smart decision? Only you can say. Blair
@@arboristBlairGlenn thank you for responding. Maybe it would be best to send a picture if possible? I am 57. The tree was purchased at about 7’ feet tall and the 1st fall a deer got to it. Lesson learned. This spring buds formed below the girded portion and are already 3-4 feet tall.
What a beautiful young lady at the end of this video. Seeing how comfortable she is swinging on that rope, I've got to assume that she is MR. GLENN'S daughter. Am I right?
Very blessed man. I must of gotten distracted and walked away but this footage rolled a 2nd time today when my phone sinked to the Screen in the shop today like all the most recently watched videos I click on with my phone. This time I heard you say "this is my daughter". Wish I had a Childhood with access to ropes like you made available for your kids. Must of been a blast for them.
Other than it being a ton of work, is the chinese pistash a kind of tree where if you did have the time to go and cut off the early clusters of seed pods that it would grow more or does it just do it once and done for the year?
Mr. Glenn thank you so much for a great video as an all of your videos are great . A comment for those folks who want to learn how to prune it’s basically a hands-on they would have to have a trained professional like yourself in the tree with them pointing out every cut just my opinion. As for the one-handed I’ve been doing it for over 20 years now probably more closer to 30 thank you so much for being an exceptional arborist sharing with other folks who are interested around the globe like myself. Joe Rapanut.
What’s you go to for sharpening hand pruners you ever use the carbide sharpener for a quick touch up while working? It’s prob best to use that leaf compost on top the soil many get confused about compost and use it as potting soil but it’s best on top of the soil. Actually a big reason big box stores plants die is because of the potting mix used that’s full of dead wood plants and trees don’t like growing in there dead selves kind of like we wouldn’t either.
Awesome Pruning video! Been watching your videos since "so you want to become an arborist" one. I started my own small business in NY and am currently studying to take the test once covid is under control. I have a question for you, I recently made the decision to take a down a healthy but heavy leaning sweet birch in between these two houses. I think this tree honestly might have been one of the largest birches Ive ever seen/climbed ever. Tried to convince the customer to just prune the lower limbs but he insisted on having it took down. Have you ever been in a situation like that? feeling a bit of guilt
Yes, sadly there have been a few times where I felt like I was doing the wrong thing. Because of that, I try harder to educate my clients. Now, I have walked away from a removal but told the tree owner it is a mistake. The trees end up being removed by someone else but it doesn’t bother me that I messed up.
I guess that is a tree okay to prune during the growing season? Also, not sure it would show up on video but a laser pointer is a great tool to use when explaining what you will be doing to a tree to customers, workers etc. They're cheap too like $10 on ebay for a nice powerful one. BTW, the leaves on the pistash look alot like tree of heaven.
You can’t worry about time of year if there are reasons for failure. I have a good one but it doesn’t show up very well. I have tried. I paid 80.00 for a powerful, green laser pointer. Great if it’s dark or overcast.
I'm not a religious person, but you are blessed my man. On another note, if the bar on the chainsaw is caked, BBQ cleaner does a wonderful job, probably also on your hand saw too.
Blair by far the best teaching videos on trees and their care. what a gift you are to the industry. How do you schedule work? After 25 years I still struggle with the "Spring rush", with many many quotes, consultations and jobs to schedule. We are presently 6-8 weeks out booking. any advice would be helpful. Ty
Hi Jim. Yes been at it a long time. Scheduling has become easier due to some decisions I have made as a result of Covid. Much of our work was in condo and townhouse complexes. Before the big C, most folks went to work. Now, cars in every spot and I can’t locate owners so working in these tight areas became a joke. Now I’m doing mostly my long term residential clients. I’m typically about a month out now. When I was three months out, I was losing jobs because folks didn’t want to wait. I have reduced my crew to two guys and myself and sometimes I bring in my son to help. Lower payroll overhead and lower comp does help to relax me more. I have been as large as 12 guys and I really hated that stress. I also don’t spend a dime on any advertising so that cuts costs too. Best of luck to you.
@@arboristBlairGlenn Thank you for your genuine and thoughtful response. I guess I'm at that point in my career where i've been at it for 25 years and at 50 yrs old it may be time to not offer some services and and concentrate on my core group of longtime established clients. I guess we all go through this stage. I'm a bit burned out I guess. Thanks Blair. You're a great mentor to us all. Hey btw I thought your son worked for you everyday?
Kalen has had some Covid difficulties with his kids being stuck at home for school. Maybe when things get back to normal again? I roll with the punches
@@jimturtle6223 hey Jim, follow up from a comment. My Son Kalen was snapped up by a nation wide tree company so no more working with dad. Sad but proud of him. He is just doing sales now. I’m not as concerned about him hurting himself doing the tree work but I wonder if he ever had the same passion for tree work that I have. So now it’s just Jorje and myself. Been at it for 51 years and I’m starting to feel it in my joints. Still enjoy it and the pleasure of a job well done makes me happy.
I've only borrowed one from the Husky dealer, and loved it. So light to use and long lasting battery life, not just in the days use but overall life of the battery.
Great pruning video. I've found that I need 3 handsaws. I'm using a Silky zubat Arborist edition for in the trees. Funny thing is that when at the chipper, I don't have to grab a chainsaw for those weird twisted branches that jam up the chipper. I just grab it off of my leg and cut. I never thought about that when I bought it. I'm now ordering a Sugoi Professional 330mm as it has a vine cutting tip and cuts larger stuff instead of having to grab a small chainsaw alot. Lastly, I just got a small straight bladed tsurugi. It's the perfect handsaw for my small orchard. It gets into tight unions on my dwarf fruit trees. Well I thought at first I would buy one saw to do it all and ended with 3. 😁 Using alcohol for pathogens on all hand tools. Tnx for the vid.
@@arboristBlairGlenn all of the prices can be found here www.wesspur.com/saws/silky-hand-saws.html They cannot be sharpened but the process they use keeps them sharp longer. They only work on the pull stroke so that's why most are curved. They are razor sharp and used to come with band aids as even a bump will cut pretty good. At the teeth the blade is thicker than at the top of the blade as to pass through the kerf better. So even gummed up its cutting like butter. I just haven't found anything of better quality. So dollar wise you come out better. I would say they are the best engineered handsaws. The scabbard has rollers inside to guide the blade in. There is 2 women in Australia that do videos just for Silky saws. I think they own an Arborist supply store. Give those a look. I'll try to find ya the link. You have to check em out before you buy as some saws are pretty long. I like the 13 inch i think 330mm as I don't pull long. Plus too long isn't good on the leg. It came with leg straps and a quick snap I put on my harness. So moving it around is efficient. I'm sure many just have two. If you see any vids with the orange plastic scabbard hanging off a harness that's the sugoi. It has a vine cutting tip and cuts big enough stuff to leave the small chainsaw alone.😁
Hi Blair, i suppose 'working by time" means that you charge an hourly rate....and you work away. As opposed to charging a "job" fee. Can you talk/expand a bit more on the pros and cons of "working by time"..... and how customers react to the end results. As well as which method is more profitable to the business owner. Cheers
Glad you asked. We have a reputation for doing a thorough job. I don’t like feeling rushed to meet a bid. I have been at this for 48 years and my client know I will do what’s right or best for the situation. They trust me and I can work to completion according to what we discuss. I know bidding job can make a lot more money but I need to know that I’m not in a hurry. I spend the time inspecting for issues and bring them to the clients attention. I try for a full day minimum so I don’t need to rush to another small job. Three of us bring in 8 to 10 k a week and I’m okay with that. I love what I do and don’t need much to stay ahead.
