Stump Grinding Mulch.

[Lumberjack]

Stumped, something is wrong with your grinder if you go through 4 tires a month, assuming these are road graded tires. Your gramatical errors are numerous as well.

Do you have a front end loader on your tractor?

justa, sounds good. I couldnt do that though, I would want the money to stay with me. Hence I am thinking about expanding into lawn and landscape.

Ljack, you misspelled grammatical, and i question the usefulness of that complaint when the meaning is clear. Will the poster edit himself, or shy away form posting next time? Why risk that just to be more correct than he?

O and thanks for de-redding your sig.

...Juststumps, I like the way you think...I'm of the same mind. The more we help others, the more we help ourselves! Some folks don't see it that way and thats OK. The way you and I do it , its like having others advertise for you and that makes $$$ sense! I took this concept one step further. Not only do I hand out my MAGNET business card , I ask for theirs and put it in my card folder. If I come across a customer who need that kinda service, I give them the phone number. They find me work and I find them work...thats smart business any way you look at it! HC

I know I misspelled it. The same lack of effort I put into looking up the word is shown in many of his posts. When I am talking to the best in the nation I want to put the best foot forward. I will regularly edit my posts several times to make sure things are right, and no obvious typo's. His post was several lines long, but only 1 period. He spelled which witch. I make many errors in sentence structrure, and even more in spelling, but I do my level best to make the posts I read to a basic english standards. I feel dumb (rightly so) when I make an error like I did just now, and I aint gonna change the spelling, I made a mistake, so be it. If I woulda caught it then I would change it, or if it was mentioned to me in a PM I would change it, but since its been called out, it stays. (Not mad about the calling out, I am just giving my opinion)

I am not trying to be more correct, I approach this forum with the thought that my words will be read by many. Those "many" are some of the best in the nation, if not world. I choose to respect myself enough to use good grammar. I was simply saying that he does not, and it shows little respect for those who read it. As to a risk, I am willing to gamble it yes. If he is scared off, so be it, I doubt he will be. I took plenty of hard knocks when I started posting, and I am better for it. Too much has slipped in this world because people were afraid to "offend" someone. Now we belly ache about this and that, when it was a degradation of our morals that led to where we are now. So yes, I am willing to risk loosing further input from stumped for life if he is offended with my saying his grammar is lacking, unprofessional, and somewhat rude (on some level). Its like talking to a 5 year old, not a buisness man.

No problem with the sig. Thank you for your threads on different aspects of PHC, and your input on my observations in the homeowners forum. I have a desire to learn more about PHC, and your one of the people I hope to learn/recieve guidance from.

Thats my tractor, yours is nice, and new. We just added the loader, it cost $7003 installed. The installation was around $300 i believe.

Lumberjack, i am not offended i see no need in it......this is just a Website....

Lumberjack, Its all right You'll get over it, Until then just let it go, if you dont have any thing good to say keep it too your self.

 

[Lumberjack]

There is nothing to "get over". Your lack of effort in making posts doesnt cost me any sleep, nor mental anguish.

Its clear you know everything, I am retarded.

However, if I have something to say that is within forum rules that I feel worthy to say, I will say it. Being in the minority on an opinion doesnt concern me.

Like I was getting at before, your lack of attempt at grammer not only makes your contribution to this site harder to read and much less professional looking, it also speaks to me about your character as a human and buisness person.

If you dont like what I say, put me on the ignore list for your user profile, I have few problems with your material; the main issue with me is the grammar. Why not try and improve your skill instead of passing it off as my rant? It takes little effort to do it right in the first place, and it cannot hurt you to learn to write better.

So far its all been simple criticism (I would think constructive), this is to your material in your last post:

"...Its all right You'll get over it, Until then just let it go..."

Your logic is flawed. If i am not over it, its not likely I will "let it go" until I am "over it". Make sense?

Undoubtably I will be flamed for this last part, I would expect no less, I have made plenty of mistakes both in reality and this virtual arena, so I have no distict divine right to call you out on that, but it "ices the cake". Surely this post will be torn apart and scrutinized, so be it. I dont think its asking to much, some say live and let live. I say live loudly and make ripples.

I say live loudly and make ripples.

I say live proudly but don't make tsunamis in our swimming pool.

Interesting and sad how a thread about stump grinding mulch has turned into another mud sling, no pun intended, Welcome to AS.

 

[Stumped_4_Life]

i'm a stump grinder, people don't care how good my grammer is, the only thing that they care about is when, i'm going to grind there stump

 

[hobby climber]

OK, So.........what about the mulch??? Ya back fill the hole or what. Fill with top soil, seed or something else? (original question)

 

[Stumped_4_Life]

I, do both what ever the Client wants.




Most the time, they just want the Chip backfilled.

 

[hobby climber]

Another suggestion to offer to our customers is to use the mulch in a com-poster.

Great idea; makes a good bottom layer when composting leaves, and makes layers between kitchen scraps too. If arborists take care of trees then they take care of roots, and wider/deeper/more natural areas are often the best way to do that. Ljack I'd like you to show us a pic of one of those many yards that you claim does not need more mulch.

I'm a Disbeliever.

One of the most memorable things to me that the mystical TreeSeer has shared previously; was the outcry that the chips belonged to the site from which they grew!

i find the implications of that premise very deep and strong. It is a people thing, and not a tree thing to remove the combinations of nutrients that were needed and successful for growth, and might even be in some scarcity that debris removal could then increase the scarcity of what the tree needs(?) etc. (but was already successful for growth). And a whole lot more of what if we leave Nature alone more type thoughts.

i think too much mulch at once, not staged in in varying sizes and decomposition over time could be a problem. But otherwise mulch recycles as it feeds, disposes of refuse, moderates humidity and temperature, cushions and spreads out shock(to keep from compressing ground from travel etc. across it), competition barrier (along with light duration, quality and intensity, water delivery etc.) etc. for the Tree's feeding ground. Serving all those purposes like that, it must be a meddling human to rush in there to save things, make them better; and turn out doing the opposite.

i like calm pools too(well ummmmm, please excuse the 'meddling human' line fer a minute!); for me that is more conducive to focused thought than speeling. i would also note, that any comments made about AS that i have heard; positive or negative; have more to do with the calmness of the pool, not the spelling/grammar thingy. :Eye:
