Good morning nostr friends, its time for coffee and i'm ready to start the day. Today should be a not-too-hectic day, mainly keeping plants and trees alive in this heat, so i'll be doing some watering. I have observed that there are some plants/trees that just dont do well in our heat/drought, so i wont be babying those anymore. I will stick to the things that are not so needy. As far as large shade trees, the beautiful white oak, aka monterrey oak, has proven to be durable, fast growing (for a tree), and not whiny. To my great sadness, i am giving up on pecan trees. I love, love pecans, and at my previous home i had beautiful, mature pecan trees that did very well. But here, i cannot grow a healthy pecan tree, a sad situation.

Anyway, yall have a great Friday nostr friends, and remember that today is a gift. #grownostr #trees #homesteading
