The next evolution of war after drones will be what was taking place in Episode 23, Season 1 of the Original Star Trek. It was called "A Taste of Armageddon." In this story, two planets wage a war entirely by computer simulation, but the “casualties” are required to report to disintegration...

If you look at the next to the last picture you can see a turkey in the air flying up to roost. That is 32 yards from my deer blind. First pic is 10 yards.

No, it's 100% Priscilla with all of the Pearmain removed. The only Pearmain left would be below the topworking. I have done a bunch of topworking in the last two years but most of it has been Callery Pears to good pears and common persimmons to known cultivars. Those have gone great, and I'm...

That’s what it appears to be. Looks to be very effective.

Will this be next?

It’s my top eating apple and the DR is excellent. I now have 4 Priscillas. The drop time is too early for deer hunting.

I have a friend that lives in North Central KY who got attacked by a bobcat while turkey hunting. He was setting against a big tree calling with a box call, and the cat came up behind the tree - reached around and took his sunglasses completely off - leaving big scratch marks on his face. He...

Looks like the setting for an Alfred Hitchcock movie, but they get shy when the guns start blasting.

We have a good crop. Second pic is Toms 10 yards from my deer blind just off the roost. Last fall I could see them in the trees when daylight came.

It could be on another rootstock. Dolgo doesn’t have to be on Dolgo rootstock.

Since it is from a rootstock, here is what I would do: 1. This year remove half of the bottom limbs below the top of the post. Make clean cuts right up against the trunk. 2. Next year remove all remaining limbs below 5 feet high. 3. Keep these lower limbs trimmed off if they try to grow...

Thanks. How often do you repeat the process, and how high do you go from the ground up the tree?
