    What causes this pine tree problem?

    Thank you!! I’ll get some of that this week! Could I use it at the base of my Apple trees as well? What about spraying trunks & limbs of all the trees that have this fungus, (or whatever it is) that is making the bark fall off? Will it work with topical application? Thanks for your help! Patti

    What causes this pine tree problem?

    Interesting point about the bacteria. I am having trouble with a lot of trees dying- both evergreen- Pine & Spruce and deciduous- mainly my Apple trees. They die from the bottom up, and usually are covered with something that looks like moss/mold/fungus/algae (no one has been able to identify...

    Diesel Mechanic

    I’ve tried kijiji, fb Marketplace, and local Buy & Sells. With the popularity of fb Marketplace & Kijiji I’m not sure how many people use Craigslist these days, but I could give it a try! Thanks for the suggestion. Patti

    Okay, thanks. I’m hoping to find some used ones in decent shape. I was wondering what brands people found to be the best. I’ll definitely keep your info though in case I can’t find any good used ones! Thanks again. Patti

    Diesel Mechanic

    Hi! Not sure if this is permitted, but I’m looking for a Diesel Mechanic in the Midwestern Ontario area (between Guelph and Owen Sound) that might be interested in doing some work on the side.

    Experiences with 31 -15- 15.5 tires

    Hi! I need to replace the 31-15-15.5 tires on my Carraro tractor. If anyone has used tires this size, which brands did you like/not like? The heavier ply the better- I know there are some 4 ply but I’d prefer more. (And are we permitted in these forums to ask about used ones for sale?) What...

    Exploding tractor battery!

    😵😵😵😵OMG!!! Did the acid do any damage to his sight or his face??? If not, he is one lucky little bugger. What a blessing you were there- and WITH a running hose at that. BIG lesson learned that day huh? Hope he was okay. Scary stuff… I ALWAYS move away from them. My mom was a nurse and coming...

    FROZEN MANURE ON BUCKETS

    Found some other products on a snowblower forum I happened to come across that had a thread about this very topic! There’s roll-on, sprays, 2 part products etc, but basically it’s Teflon that they apply once, at the beginning of the season. It stood I’ve & snow from sticking to their blades...

    FROZEN MANURE ON BUCKETS

    Thanks for your input!!! I think some of these guys thought I was exaggerating when I said it’s like concrete! (Or that they think I’m an idiot because I don’t dump it right away!! 🤣🤣 But there ARE a number of reasons WHY that doesn’t happen as I just explained to Slowpoke Slim!! I was just...

    FROZEN MANURE ON BUCKETS

    No can do…because I’m not mucking out stalls! Even though they CAN go in and out at will, they are crazy Canadian horses (that’s the breed), and they prefer to stay outside 24/7- blizzards, ice storms, Rainstorms…you name it! 🤪🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️ So, the manure I’m picking up is just around the area where...

    Exploding tractor battery!

    Thanks Charlie! Yes, that information is helpful. I had no idea there were so many types of batteries. I will be sharing this info with my friend who has the ‘battery-that-constantly-needs-to-be-recharged-if-you-use-the-lights’ 🙄😂 Patti
