  1. It was better this year with the dry stretch, but my red maples are starting to get those fungal spots on the leaves again. Annoying.
  2. When I’m out 98% of the people are wearing them. The store mandates didn’t begin until 7/20.
  3. Most stores are requiring masks now at least. Only a little over 400 cases in the state now and not many north of MHT. Hopefully bike week doesn’t mess things up. It should’ve been canceled.
  4. Probably a combo of out of state travel, opening back up, and the warmth keeping everyone enclosed in AC.
  5. Hooksett Agway had some dawn redwoods. First time I’ve seen those.
  6. Wait until fall when it goes dormant maybe? Then try to get as much of the root mass as you can
  7. Showers and overcast all day here. 67.7/62 No suits here
  8. Was at a light in Concord by the river and was just glancing around and realized just how many honeylocust trees were growing around the area. That may be another tree that would thrive in your wetter area. You could get the native thorned ones, but they have those stunning thornless Sunburst honeylocust cultivars too.
  9. Glad we don’t live there. 63° this morning and 60s and rain now.
  10. Yeah I know. But with the way it spreads like wildfire through those buildings I feel like it's not representative of the community spread as a whole. The nursing home right across the woods from me had like 50+ cases, but Franklin has only had 68 total cases, Tilton 5, and Northfield under 5 (NH site just lists 1-4). I know this doesn't apply to all areas (especially higher density areas), but in these rural areas we're talking about I just don't find them very representative.
  11. Maybe I'm wrong for thinking this, but I don't factor senior centers and nursing homes much into the community spread.
  12. MT and WY aren’t doing well? They’re near the bottom of the lists in cases and cases/1M. And these are red states with a lot of people that dgiaf about masks, distancing, etc.
  13. It’s pretty easy to keep numbers down in rural states like VT, NH, and ME. Population density seems to be driving this the most.
  14. Lots of those beetles here too Oriental beetles
  15. Only 554 active cases in NH as of yesterday and 1/5 of those were in Goffstown which I assume is a nursing home.
  16. Green ash has very short petioles (stems) from the leaflets. White ash has longer leaflet petioles. Black ash have none.
  17. Do you think blue ash would grow well up here? We’re pretty far NE from its native range. I’ve read that it has shown the best resilience to EAB although maybe that’s just a case of them preferring other ash first. Maybe the chemical that helps produce the blue dye inside the bark isn’t very appetizing?
  18. My green ash trees are producing a decent amount of seeds. Haven’t checked the sugar maple yet. But we have plenty of the ash and red maples if you need any to spread out there before winter. Maybe the shrubby willow is pussywillow?
  19. Tamarack holding me to a higher standard of information. Largest edible fruit tree native to the US (some sources say continent).
