image of RRD damage vs. Round Up damage
Comments (9)From what I've experienced, RU damage shows stunted growth, wispy like leaves not usually red. RRD shows very aggressive growth, rubbery like canes, distorted buds. Also, as you have noticed, the RRD growth is larger than the cane it comes from. Here is a picture of a 'no doubt' RRD: Here is one I found early, removed the cane, and still have the rose: Here is one I had this year. The middle cane is normal, the one's on either side have RRD: Here is a picture of what I believe is RU damage. I know I used some near this rose. I still have the rose, and it's never shown any RRD type symptoms. There was one cane, towards the front that has very wispy leaves: I have seen some pictures of RU damage that can look more like RRD, but I haven't seen it in my yard....See MoreI wonder if this was round-up damage?
Comments (6)Disease knocking out Madison roses Published 4:29pm Monday, December 27, 2010 Rose Rosette Disease, which can affect all types of roses, including Knock Out Roses, has come to North Alabama, as well as the city of Madison, according to Liz Cuneo, president of the Madison Beautification and Tree Board. It appears to have primarily infected the roses along the cemetery at Hughes Road, the entrance to the Library and in the large group planted at Madison Elementary and on Gillespie Road. According to Cuneo, RRD is a virus spread by a tiny mite called an eriophyid. It feeds on the roses, and then travels on the wind to other roses, thus spreading the disease. As the disease is systemic, once the rose is infected, it is virtually impossible to treat. This is what has happened to some of the roses in Madison. Along Hughes or Sullivan roads, some of the roses appear different, even having a bunched or distorted look to them. This is a symptom of the disease. It has what is called a witches broom appearance. There are also many, many more thorns, somewhat looking like a bristle brush. The leaves will be bright burgundy in color, which can be misleading, as all Knock Out roses have leaves that color when they first appear. However, if they do not turn green or appear to be stunted or much thinner, then that is another symptom of the disease. Blooms will appear smaller or discolored, and may fall off without opening. As the disease progresses, you will see the rose get more and more of the witches� broom look to it, and it will eventually die. There is no cure for this disease. Once you realize your Knock Out has it, the most effective treatment is removal. That is what will be happening on Hughes Road, Sullivan Street and Gillespie. Where the Beautification Board has identified diseased roses, they will be removed. It is hoped that removal, which in effect thins out the roses, will slow down or stop the spread of the disease. The city of Madison and the Beautification Board, working together, will approach the situation with a three-pronged effort. First the infected plants will be removed. Second, the remaining roses will be monitored by the Board, with periodic surveys to spot potential problems. Any others found to be infected will also be removed. Finally, the Board will replant in areas where removal was required, with a companion plant philosophy and diversification a priority. The Beautification Board still believes that the Knock Out rose is an excellent plant for this area and will continue to use it. However, it is believed that the rapid spread of the disease is due to the large numbers of the Knock Out, which have been planted. While the �Knock Out� rose is disease resistant, no plant is disease proof. As in any landscape, diversity is best. According to Cuneo, this has been a painful lesson to learn, but the Beautification Board believes it is a good lesson. The Board will seek companion plants for the Knock Out, plants that will be pleasing in appearance, hardy and drought resistant and provide the beautiful display the citizens of Madison have come to expect. Cuneo suggests that if residents believe their roses have the disease or want more information, they should contact Ken Creel, Madison County Extension Agent at 256-532-1578 or 256-382-1554. In addition, the Virginia Cooperative Extension offers information concerning RRD, which can be found at http://pubs.ext.vt.edu/450/450-620/450-620.html....See MoreHow to save conifer from RoundUp?
Comments (8)i would have soaped it up within minutes ... with what i dont know.. and washed it rather roughly ... and then hoped for the best ... i dont know what to tell you now.. other than.. to kill a tree.. i would guess you would need over 50 to 75% coverage.. to dose it well enough for the kill ... [presuming you were using proper dilution rates] hopefully.. you will only have some branch death.. and recovery .. but only time will tell ... by fall you will probably know.. might even take thru next winter ... the only issue.. is whether you can find a replacement cheaply.. and just divest.. and replant.. so as to not guilt your son forever .. lol ... on my 5 acres.. i could ignore this for 3 years.. and 'see what happens' .. but if it is in a prime focal point in a small yard .. and this waiting will drive you insane.. just divest ... the other side of that coin.. is whether you are the science type.. and would love to 'see what happens' .... personality A or B ... its up to you ... i use plenty of RU around here.. when the kids were younger.. it was always an issue.. whether they would walk up.. and try to emulate daddy spraying ... lol ... but the worst was.. the unexpected sneeze.. wherein who knows where that wand might end up when you convulse erratically ... lol i wish you luck ken ps: BTW.. you dont happen to know.. if your RU had a spreader/sticker in it?? it would be on the label ... it might help to call the 800 number on the label.. and ask mosanto what they suggest.. i would be curious .......See MoreDamaged ovens Round 1
Comments (61)I'm glad that they are going to try to fix it. And if you stick to your guns, they might replace it with a new version if that doesn't work and if they think that it is not worth fighting you on it. BUT, that doesn't mean that they have a legal obligation to do so. The fact that insurance can be purchased that covers replacement value is irrelevant here. Replacement cost would be relevant if you were claiming against your insurance company. That is a benefit that you might have purchased with your premiums. For all you know, they have purchased it as well for damage caused by their installers. But that doesn't alter their legal obligation to you. They don't have some enhanced duty because they have a good insurance plan. You have the right to be made whole if the damage was caused through the negligence of another. You say that being made whole would be replacement with the most comparable new appliance. I'm not sure that courts in your jurisdiction would agree. Keep in mind that this is a question of state law, so what is important is what your state law provides. Courts in your state could say that making you whole would be refunding you your out-of-pocket costs and the installation costs. I'm pretty sure that courts in my state would say that, particularly because of the relatively short time period between the purchase of the appliance and today, and the fact that the only consequential damages that you are claiming (i.e., you might have purchased other appliances) are hypothetical and intangible. By intangible, I mean that you can't really put a value on them. In other words, what is the value of having matching appliances. To the TKO, it may be huge. But in hard dollars, the argument would be that you got your money value out of the warming oven, and you can't prove a hard dollar loss. I also think that there is likely to be very little sympathy in the courts for a claim that you should get a stove that is twice the value of the one that was damaged when you only bought the store model a few months ago. I know that you say that this product wasn't used, and therefore, they should replace it with something that is new. We can quibble about used vs. new, but it was a floor model. It did have a lower retail value than a new in the box. It had dings. The installer doesn't have an obligation to give you more than what you had, and that is a floor model with dings or the market value of one. In this case, it seems to me that your purchase price would determine the market value. Anyway, I hope it works out for you. I would also push for replacement if the repair doesn't work. But I wouldn't kid myself that they were violating some law if they didn't replace it with a new version of the ovens if the repair doesn't work. I'm not giving or intending to give any legal advice here, but I don't think that they have a legal obligation because you relied on the ovens working to other matching appliances. I would, however, try to pin down what the warranty will be on the ovens if the repair seems to be successful....See More- 12 years ago
