Beautiful soil. I enjoy your videos.

Great video and I really liked the way you turned the grass turf. Have you ever considered planting trees in woven plastic sheeting (Mypex / plantex)?

It says in the book of apples and also on keepers and ashridge nursery's sites that pitmaston pineapple is scab resistant do you think this is wrong as you disagree on your website.

Ooooo! What wonderful soil you have there. I would give an arm and a leg to have such soil on my allotment, which is sticky like glue in winter and hard as bricks in summer. And full of burdocks to boot!

thats some good looking soil man!

@krupter Hi, I'm in Louisiana, too! (Baton Rouge) In my neighborhood, we have numerous old oak trees that drop TONS OF LEAVES, so I gather the bagged leaves that people rake up in the winter, and put them in the back corner of my yard. I open the bags and with a hose, wet the leaves down, and close the bags back up. The plastic keeps it moist inside, and the black color of the bag makes it warm so the leaves quickly break down into BEAUTIFUL COMPOST! It will do wonders for your soil.

HELLO
DO YOU USE ROOT STOCK MM106 IF SO DO YOU LIKE IT? ALSO HOW TALL CAN IT BECOME?.
memberson 2 months ago
@memberson I use MM106 for apples, it can grow to 12 feet tall and round depending on scion, soil and conditions. It can also be a lot smaller. Probabal ht ebest all round stock, if you have very good soil M9 or M27 maty be better.
These pears are on quice A stock.

I'm sure you'll support these when/if you find the time.
I've used store bought manure in the holes where I've planted trees, but I didn't put it in contact with the roots. I've put a layer of soil of about 7cm between them.
Teorispa 2 months ago
@Teorispa that's right. Freash manure in contact with the roots is bad, it may be useful as a mulch especially in a dry spring/ear;ly summer after planting.
we'll stake these in 2013, the stakes only last about 4/5 years in th soil so why waste a year when there is no weight of fruit to suport?
