I have an old dead juniper which I would like to turn into a tanuki because of the interesting trunklines. In order to make this last a bit I am looking at options to treat the old trunk. As it has no living tissue I can do whatever I want till I marry it to the young whip I have sitting ready for it.
ANy recommendations? I have the general wood hardener (Traded by Alabastine (https://www.alabastine.nl/product/houtrotimpregneer/), but I think it is is the same stuff found around the world in different brand names (e.g., https://www.screwfix.com/p/ronseal-wet-rot-wood-hardener-clear-500ml/63540).
I am in doubt this will really enter the wood very deep. Are there other options I could look into? Naturally, I would also use limesulphur but that will not stop the wood from decaying at ground lever I am sure. .
