Gardening: Smoke in the air can certainly make people snap to attention when it comes to dead spruce trees on their properties. Removing them is a job best left to professionals.
Smoke sure makes people snap to attention when it comes to dead spruce trees on their properties. In fact, the live trees are probably more dangerous because the terpenes they contain make them more volatile when burning. Still, we must deal with those dead ones.
My advice is to get a professional to do the job. Not only is it dangerous as all get-out to fell a big tree, you probably do not have the proper equipment. I know my puny battery chain saw wouldn’t cut it — not that my wife would allow me to try. And, I don’t have a pair of those spikes that would get me up into the tree.
What to do with the trunks? There are lots of folks who will come and take the trunks of felled cottonwoods away for free. My wonderful neighbor used a Facebook Marketplace page to alert people and away they went within hours! This is not so with the limbs, however.One more cottonwood comment. Cottonwood fluff was used to ignite Confederate gunpowder during the Civil War, I am told. It is highly flammable and should be respected as such. Get it out of your grill before you use it.
OK, on to the heat. Bolting is occurring, or already has because of the record high temperatures. Spinach? Forget it. Swiss chard, iffy. Certain kinds of arugula just don’t develop.
