All,
I am no woodsman, lumberjack, tree trimmer...
You get the idea. I've a tree about 15 inches in diameter, about 45 feet tall, which has a crotch about at 25 to 30 feet.
This monster gets bigger daily and grows 5 feet from my meager shed, and nearly within striking distance from my attached garage.
My question is: can I trim 1/3 to 1/2 of the tree and will it live? Or better yet, should I even bother?
I like trees, but I like my home, and my shed even better!
Just collecting and acting on the combined wisdom if this spectacular site.
