    Been in the automotive repair industry for a while now, and lately I've been wanting to learn a new trade and tree care service and asphalt/ concrete paving have been getting my attention

      😂😂😂 two completely different jobs mate there’s not much danger in concrete paving but compared to being an arborist 😂 it’s easy watching someone on a video but when you’re actually 100ft up just wearing spikes and a flip line taking the top out of a tree that if it goes back will kill you that takes bollocks I’ve always said you can’t just be an arborist you’re born like it

    Can you give some advice about pruning and training alstonia tree because it spreads 4 branches from every node. I can't figure out how to maintain a good canopy

    Question why are you wearing spikes on a reduction as that can put the tree at more risk of disease?
