Hi tree people! I'm interested in hearing people's opinions on how to deal with a large fir that has lost one of its co-dominant tops. The tree is about 4' DBH and had co-dominant tops until one blew out in a recent wind storm. The tree looks healthy otherwise. It is right next to the clients shop and if the other top blows out it could do some serious damage. I guess the question in whether to top the tree and try to preserve it, leave the second top if it looks well secured, or take the tree out. I have scheduled a time to climb the tree and inspect the tear out and condition of the second top. A decision will be made after that. Any experience or insight is welcome! Thanks!
