Yeah, that's real clear.

Just kidding.


Boa, we gotta get some pics now of different cuts that were done a while ago and have a look.

I draw your attention to Exhibit A, this was a co-dominant cut more so toward the blue line than the red. Now the reason why the bark has gone to where you can see callus wood growing is because I broke it off by hand to see if closure was taking place. Note where it was cut it died. So if this cut were more on the mark of a red line it would have been hunky dory. Also as you cannot see the bottom of the BBR but just note where the callus growth has occured ... way lower than you'd expect, more toward that flusher zone.

Now because the guy who cut this stayed away from the red line the wound will be exposed longer as the callus has to grow more distance to cover the dead stub which is a bug feast.
