So thanks to birkeys in galesburg I got a zero turn for a grat price! I ran over a tree almost instantly and put the thing in the ditch within an hour,no injuries to anything but my sense of humor which was short lived!I was saved by a groundhog whole!
I have a new found appreciation for what Chad does for me and I will certainly make it right with him at the end of the year.I also have been forced to notice a few upcoming orchard issues that will be the focus of my evenings from now on! I have zero experience with nearly all this stuff,I am only following or doing what I am supposed too, but I am enjoying and learning as I go.
I have noticed that several trees are leaning and have holes wollowed out nearly exposing the roots so I guess I need to stake them.I have researched a few techniques and have developed a theory of my own that says they should be staked with something malleable so they develop a strong trunk.I believe flexible fiberglass rods should do the trick,now I need to find them and very inexpensively.I will post some pics soon,I need to scoot so I can get 35 minutes or so of r&r before I go into stasis for 7 hours!
I* have saved a few bucks from working and was hoping to get one of those JD 1025r tractors by trading in everything I have.I have high hopes that I will be getting good info in a few days!If not I it is not meant to be.
I have noticed that several of the trees are going to be producing this year as if the Fibonacci scale has presented itself true to is theoretical self.I hope to have enough to maybe even peddle.
