Hi, I need some advice. My big old Pecan is dropping branches, BIG ones, and little ones. The big ones are at least 10" in diameter, maybe 25' long, not sure about that part. The first one came down abouy two months ago, the second yesterday. We've had some windy weather lately (ripped up the meatl roof on my neighbors outbuilding). There seems to be nothing wrong with the tree, looking at the wood that's down, but of course, I'm no expert. There are "woodpecker" marks ringing the branch in some spots. There seem to be bigger pecans than usual, lots of them.
My thought is to get someone out to trim back the other big bracnches, and clean up the breaks. I do NOT want to lose this tree, it significantly hotter just with the two branches gone...
Any thoughts appreciated...
