Grading
« on: January 20, 2012, 10:09:36 AM »

This week.........I has mostly been grading...........willow

Nearly 10,000 clefts this week (although there were 2 of us doing the work) and out of all of it less than 80 of them will make it to being a legend.

Think I need to go away and work out how to grow perfect trees..........

No, I think you need to go away and take a few pictures of the willow so we can help you with your grading.
Given that GN grow you own trees, you only have yourseves to blame if they are not perfect!! ;)

sounds like a lot of willow. how long will that last you? i do agree with buzz. a variety of grades in picture form would be good. see the difference in your grades.

if the clefts are the same dimensions, do you grade on weight?

Would love to see the differences in your willow grading...

What are your guidelines on grading? I.e what criteria does a legend have to meet

I don't know how to put this, but, I'm kind of a big deal.
