Exciting
I’ve been stealing cherries off before they’re ripe since those thieving birds keeps robbing me
Looks great how long ago did you start?
Blueberries, papples & Japanese walnuts came with the house. The rest were in panted by us over the past 12 years. We stopped bring tree serial killers about 6 years ago, who knew it was so hard to keep a tee alive?
Anything you did to stop killing them? Or lots of small things? I haven’t started killing them yet, but I want to.
The ones we killed were all babies. Once we started planting them we went through 3 or 4 seasons before we kept one alive.
I think the turnaround was watering 1 gallon a day for 2-4 weeks at the start of all of them. Once we figured that out we stopped killing them
Thanks! I will remember
