Sunday, June 10 View Page This season is starting off a bit rough. A split about 5 inches long on the stump. It is well healed and dry. It was hidden by the cot leaves. I saw it when removing them this morning. Sunday, July 8 View Page Just wondering if anyone knows what could have caused these three marks. They are located out on a secondary near the tip. They are striaght cut marks just like a knife cut. The material dripping out is like a gel. Thanks Tuesday, September 25 View Page Here is my 827 -time to load it .
