Questions for men (or butchy women)

[Maggot]

I grew up working potato, squash,cucumber,pumpkin and a few apple orchards as a teenager, but until I bought my house I never really got into trees, bushes, flowers and shit like that. I had cut down alot of trees but never climbed and limbed them. It was mostly notch and make sure they miss the house, power lines etc. If I knew your zone I could look up what might grow in your soil but that would depend on the soil maybe you should find out why the pear tree died. There are many factors that come into play and I'm getting a fat headache thinking of all the different things that might affect you. You should just tell me to forget about it so I can move on and worry about the ice dams that are forming in the hip roof by my sunroom.
