Finally got a pruning cut right on a tricky maple
I've been fighting with a silver maple in my backyard for 2 years, always getting weepy cuts that never healed right. Last weekend I tried making a 3-cut removal on a heavy limb over 6 inches and angled the final cut just barely past the branch collar. Has anyone else noticed a big difference with those tiny collar adjustments on messy trees like maples?

Wait, you actually got a clean cut on a silver maple? Those things are notorious for bleeding like crazy no matter what you do.

Feel your pain man, silver maples are the worst for that.
