not one of you

I move forward at a much different pace now and will try to keep up with the blog.Nobody bought the place so it continues to be my duty.

on pine 2

This site has the walnut trees as well as some peach and of course the creek has Paw P aws and hazelnuts. I gotta say it was a slaughter during pruning and it was more of a shaping with these peach trees. I still dont know what im doing ,but Im getting it done and I feel as if I got a clue. I guess the hardest part is cutting away so much tree.I fear Im hurting it but at the same time it need shape.I will feed the heck out of these trees as it has proven to be the key.I have trees that are three times bigger than what I have sold to others.I know some of that is Gods blessing but some of it is the fertilizer. Simple miracle grow injuected in the ground around the tree..awesome results and cheep but time consuming

walnut and apple on pine

These apple trees produced great last year and grew like crazy,I also cut tons of growth from the walnut trees .,I still havent done anything with the hill across the creek but bamboo in the wettest area and I am wondering if I should go apricots on the mound or emperor splendor.

emperor splendor update

 In this 1 acre plus site  I planted the cold weather variety of the emperor splendor in Aug of 2014.

This is a few of the stalks I cut off at the ground in hopes the tree reacts the way it was promised and should be between ten and 20 foot of growth this year. The stalk is somewhat hollow but green which tells me everything survived the winter...yeahhh...

fish again

Nobody likes to see things die or be the cause of it. Last year I took all the fish from the ponds and put them in my basement aquaponic system for safe keeping.I forgot the hose running in the tank and along with a 250 dollar water bill and emergency contact from the water company,all the fish died from the chlorine or water temp.It was my fault and I felt horrible because it was my responsibility and I failed.I will try again this year and be much more aware..

2 outa 3

I have one more sign for sponsored orchards but I cant find the picture. The space is for small placards to be placed to show whos is where and row location,on the sponsored it will be sponsors name. I aslso have a sign being made that says "lets grow together with my email address that can be printed on both sides to maybe be able to start getting gifts so I can grow..

Reliance Peaches

I spaced these bad boys a little further apart so they could breath. I pruned in here and was a little nervous at the strange gooey stuff coming from the graft but I can do nothing about it.Im unsure if it is a beetle entrance wounds or if its normal.Once again I will be filling in the missing paw paws with Hazelnuts along the waterway..
