FilipT:
Eh, it was in bad condition and actually difficult to cut so I let them go. Instead I cut nearby dry but healthy black locust into 3 pieces, each about 30 cm in diameter and 2 meters long.

Strichev:
It really is a shame that we hardly have any elm trees left. Supposedly the same is going to happen to ash when the emerald ash borer reaches us.

Let's hope the locust holds up during tillering.

FilipT:
First I must get them home. :D They are on the hill and I must split them there so I can more easily bring them home. Btw, when I cut them I noticed that they don't have any whitewood. Maybe just a thin layer of it, which will make chasing rings easier.
