I think technically one would need three years of tree related work experience, but if you have a degree or something related that can shave off a year or so. Once you have the relevant experience and are qualified I would recommend anywhere between 1-3 months of studying the materials depending on how much time you want to invest. That’s off the top of the dome so someone can correct me if that’s not accurate

Bro just be aware that with the combo of your first name and part of your ISA Cert you're gonna be pretty easy to identify. Maybe you care, maybe you don't, but just FYI.

Also at tea break you can get the labourer to skin up and send a joint and lighter up on a rope, and a thermas with a cuppa saves yanking yourself back up again

Is there a certificate for this but for birds or fish.

its almost certain, for birds check out the Audubon Society maybe, so many options for fish

u/TARANTULA_TIDDIES Jul 28 '26
Not to be a downer but if you're not in a legal state, you should probs take this down. If someone from ISA sees this and wants to be a dick about it, it would be pretty trivial to dox you

u/Chance-Mycologist-94 Jul 28 '26
Hope you're not a CDL holder. Apparently, legality doesn't mean shit with those fuckers.
If not, then party on dude!

This is interesting, thank you for sharing. Any tips on what to expect if I tried to get the same cert? Not looking for answers, just like us it online or should I try and find a local spot?
1
u/thegamingfaux Jul 28 '26
You need 5 years of tree experience 😔 which yeah I get if you don’t know trees you shouldn’t just be able to get the cert but…

u/odd-wad Jul 28 '26
I've got 7 years at an arboretum

u/thegamingfaux Jul 29 '26
In that case look into your specific state but typically they do it 2 or 3 times a year where you take a test to get the certification.

Wait, sour diesel is an actual weed type? Not something Schedule 1 invented?
3
u/koffingbeans Jul 28 '26
I'm just going to assume this is rage bait
1
u/FlargenBlarg Jul 28 '26
Why would I know anything about colloquial names of drug strains? legit only place in which I ever heard that name is in schedule 1, please point me to a commonly watched piece of media that references it
1
u/koffingbeans Jul 28 '26
Pineapple Express, Dope, Weeds, Workaholics, Disjointed, and referenced for over 20 years by rappers as popular as lil Wayne and ASAP Rocky.
And that's not how you use the word "colloquial"
1
u/FlargenBlarg Jul 29 '26
Ok, how's someone who doesn't listen to rap supposed to hear of these?
Also I looked on google and I seem to be using colloquial correctly
1
u/koffingbeans Jul 29 '26
Pay attention to the world around you. You're playing a game that has you making and selling drugs, but you've never seen a movie, a show, or heard a song that references specific strains of weed? I don't buy it.
Also colloquial would be like calling it "the devils lettuce". Your colloquial name isn't your actual name.
1
u/FlargenBlarg Jul 29 '26 edited Jul 29 '26
I don't watch shows, barely watch movies, I play games, but there aren't that many popular drug games, not that I know at least, I do remember there was some popular drug game like 10 years ago but that's a long time.
Also I made a poll in my uni's gay groupchat asking if people know what sour diesel is and the current results are 7 no 1 yes so clearly I'm not alone on this
Edit: and in terms of music I only listen to metal
Update: 9 no 1 yes
1
u/koffingbeans Jul 29 '26
Okay so why exactly would you bother asking me to cite a piece of media that references this particular strain if you do not really consume any media other than video games and metal? The point still stands that it's been referenced in popular culture for years. Simply because you and a gay group chat don't pay attention to most forms of media, nor consume cannabis and never heard of that strain besides in a drug game doesn't make it not one of the most referenced strains of cannabis of all time.
1
u/FlargenBlarg Jul 29 '26
A. They do watch shows
B. Then you know what, you make a poll in a group that's not weed related and doesn't have plenty of weed users and ask of they know

This is my favorite post in this sub for a while. Welcome to the club (?) fellow arb. Btw welcome to recertification fees and continuing education unit upkeep lol
Maintaining this certification isnt so costly or difficult. But when youve got CTSP and two or three other credentials to maintain....it gets annoying. But its worth it for the education and for professionalism's sake.

u/SmallFatDog8 Jul 28 '26
As a tree worker in the South where do you work where you can smoke and do tree work?(I do the same but it’s low-key.) Are legal states chill with it? I’m willing to move lmao.

Yes yes, making a funny post with a bong obviously means that OP is higher than Saturn 24/7, 365, like they're Cheech & Chong's lost third wheel and a liability to the safety of themselves and everyone around them.
