I collected a 4' ponderosa(I think) and didn't notice when collecting that it had some of these places on the bark and branches with crumb-like deposits with holes. Any idea what kinda borers did this and what I can do to repel them from this tree?
Bit of a buzzkill to note this when I was potting it up at home. I'm a bit new at this so I am still learning what to look for when collecting. If I can't remedy the issues with this tree, at least I can get another one or two and know what to look for before collecting them.
Mountain pine beetle maybe? Per this page - this tree may be a goner?
