Hi Farmer P 😊 Looking at the root movement of the trees in the cemetery, what are the chances of a coffin being pushed up above ground 🤔 Spooky , me thinks😳😱😅
Next to no chance Maeve, tree roots rarely penetrate much below 3' (1 meter) deep. They need oxygen for respiration, so unless air is getting down into a tomb and exchanging gas a lot deeper, a coffin below 5' depth is well out of range.
@@FarmerP. 😊 Interesting info re tree root movements and good to know. I have a 30ft Johannesburger tree and it's trunk is 2m from my kitchen wall. Your comment explains why all its roots are on t'other side of wall and breaking up the pathway in the sunny garden area.. I had recently been having thoughts of it's roots lifting the floor in my kitchen.😮. Thanks for giving me peace of mind that the foundation of my house isn't going anywhere other than where it is 😅. Many thanks, Farmer P 👍👌🤗
@ 30’ is a big one Maeve, but your climate is a bit different to ours. As for your foundation, that depends entirely on your sub soil type, elasticity and the type and depth of the footing. You also need to take into consideration any service pipes that go to or from your property, tree roots love a pipe, especially in dry conditions, waste pipes can produce condensation (moisture) which roots will follow, disturbed ground (trenches) are often less compacted allowing air to percolate the soil which roots will also take advantage of. Local knowledge will be better than my advice, again because our climates are so different. 🙂👍🏼
@@FarmerP We have a rainy summer season with afternoon Thunderstorms . We have just gone into summer temps 27°C - 34°C to 38°C . Night temps 19°C-23°C. Even our nights would be too hot for you, Farmer P 😉. I live inland from the coast in the highlands. All houses built in our area were built on former Sugar Cane farmlands Generally good dark soil everywhere and Trees everywhere. Looks like a forest from the air I have 30 trees on my 1800sqm property. Unfortunately trees bring monkeys. They are more destructive than moles. They take a bite out of every fruit, flower from shrubs and trees and chuck them on the ground. Raid garbage bins and raid bird nests. They are of no use to man or beast whatsoever. Heaven knows why they were put on the planet in the first place 🤦🏼♀️ Building regulations pretty rigid in SA. Colonial influence . Only building failures occur because of floods causing landslides etc. Sorry I waffled on. Was on a verbal roll. 🤦🏼♀️ Hope some of it was informative of our country t'other side of the Pond 😃🤗
🎉🎉Soon be December 21st shortest daylight day. As most storms occur during winter when most trees are without leaves, with the ongoing changes in season's I believe you're gonna see more damage with trees in leaf put under stress with winds and not forgetting rainfall. Can trees have problems with roots being waterlogged?😊
@@chriseccles1454 Prolonged water logging can have a profound effect on trees Chris. Roots need air for the tree to naturally respire, if the soil is anaerobic the tree has to use stored energy to basically breath, once the energy reserves are depleted the tree will decline and eventually drown. Some trees handle flooding better than others, some like the swamp cypress can throw up little snorkels called knees, these are thought to be for supplying air to a root system, I suspect a grove of swamp cypress will also graft over root systems so they can share resources as required.
@@BrendanWhite-e3y The old simple test is a soft hammer Brendan. Tap around the stem and listen to the sound, good wood sounds a bit different to decayed. Is there any fungal fruiting bodies at the base or on the stem of the tree? If so, they will give away the type of decay you can expect, they can also give a clue as to the extent of the decay. A good arborist should be able to give advise with a few simple tests with a hammer and probe , the last resort before removal is to get a professional arboriculturist consultant in, he can test the tree with a resistograph or a Picus Tomograph. Be warned though, there is a cost involved which could easily be in the hundreds of pounds for these services. Common fungus on beech trees include Ganoderma , Armillaria , Kretzshumaria deusta and Meripilus giganteus . The last three are the worst. If you have any of these on or around your tree, get it inspected asap.

I hope the tree does not fall down. I don’t want those people to wake up. They are in the gaskets today. I don’t want you to get scared because I don’t think employees would help to cut the tree down if you have to cause they all will be too scared of the people going after them don’t get me wrong. It can happen. Come back to life.
New drama coming to TV 'Pullen, Forensic Arboriculturalist' Interesting detective work at the cemetery 👍
That was dead good of you in the cemetery. I was rooting for the you! 🤪😆🫣
I see what you did there mate 😄
@ if I knew what my day job was, I should probably stick to it 😆🫣🫣
Inspector Clouseau is on the case!.😅 Very impressed Ian! 😎😁
Very interesting , thankyou .
Movement of trees .🤔🤗
Hi MR, P things are looking good around the other farm. Looks like a bit of tricky tree work around the cemetery that will take some time.
You are the Sherlock Holmes of tree care!
Ian no safety glasses when cutting the padlock off 😮
A very good Thursday evening to you all

Great update!
Battery angle grinders - the Swiss Army Knife of the Caravan Club 😹😹😹 Have you got Towing Eyes on your new Cherry Picker? Could be handy.
Just wanted to pick you brains 🧠 how do you test beach trees 🌳 for strength and if it's decaying thanks

@FarmerP thanks very much for your response much appreciated
Lot of storm damage for you to look at and keep your team busy
Why do some trees have no leaves on them at all and some are still fully foliage 🤔
@@tony-yp6qk No leaves at all ? If that’s in the summer I would say the most likely reason is they are dead.
Okay thanks farmer p
very good video 👍❤😊😊😊😊😊
Evening Ian
Chances of finding the key before cutting the lock = -0% chances of finding the key immediately after 100%
I bet the bloody thing finds me first 😄
Since you have demonstrated how substantial the chain is it might make you wonder whether it matters if you use the chain or not?
14:26 great content again
13:42 Is there anything in farming that is cheap?
@@miketaylor8777
The air…… That’s about it.
Hi what was your last bike? I farmed for 30 years then diversified but have always had bike's and still do.

Are your eyes spark resistant from grinder sparks .No safety glasses on Ian!!!

It’s only a good padlock if you have the key for it other than that it makes a good paperweight

Why didn't you just cut the first link on the chain, then the padlock would have still been useable..
