Just a suggestion
Don't get me wrong.
It's a good suggestion.
I just feel like I don't have time to use practice trees.
And I've been working with trees for most of my life.
So maybe I'm just more practiced up.
Most of my jobs have been tree related.
Planting Jack pines for the D.N.R.
Working at a nursery planting,digging,and transplanting trees.
Feller buncher operator clearing forests.
And trimming and removing trees for 20 plus years in the line clearance industry.
So my practice probably comes from all of those things.

Can't underestimate the power of cross training...related experience.

Yours is almost direct....Which is awesome!

But I've found a ton of things useful for crosstraining.

No matter what...
Observation is key.

@Bonsaikev1985 Same here! after 12-14 hours in a hot kitchen I just want to have a shower, but I am watering all the trees before the boots come off or it won't get done if I sit down lol.
