    Tell us about the “farm use” tag. What requirements and any costs or concerns. Thanks

    Black walnut is one of my favorite. It will make a killer cake using white cake mix.

    With Osage orange trees you can look forward to a lifetime of flat equipment tires! Those thorns grow to 3-4” and don’t deteriorate. You can use them as needles to stitch your buckskin clothes…

    You can use the dibble to squeeze the roots tight in the soil after you drop the seedlings in the hole you made. It works better than stomping them with your foot.

    Josh. When planting pines here in the eastern part of Washington our soil conservation district offers plastic sleeves to go with each tree. This protects the trees from deer and other critters

    Wow, the farm has really greened up! In Ottawa, Canada, our grass is still quite brown. We won't typically plant until after May 24 because of the risk of frost.

    BRILLIANT! Crabapples, one of my favourite trees of all time. I planted a crabapple in memory of my Mother (died back in 1963) and it's recently absolutely LOADED with fruit (rural Shropshire, England). 👍👍👍

    Black walnuts don’t have to go very deep to germinate. At least, not in upstate New York. We had two, in our front yard and when the nuts fell off, I loaded them in a wagon and took them up in the neighbors woods and dumped them out for the critters. If I missed any in the area next to the road, they’d pop up the next year. The thick, composting grass, was enough for them to sprout.

    On the cypress, don't plant them where you plan on mowing. They will shoot up "knees" all over.
    On the auger, hold on tight...if they hit a root or rock, your drill will be wrenched from you hand.

    Josh, info about bald cypress. They are very prolific in sprouting and need dry ground to sprout. Once sprouted, they can be kept in a bucket of water to grow; I have done it in NE Texas. Yes, they are slow-growing, about 12 inches in diameter per 100 years. They don't have growth rings if cut down. If they grow where the water alternately covers and uncovers the roots, vertical growth will form on the roots called knees and will grow about 1/64 to 1/32 inch per year. As long as the tree is well started and can't be shaded out, it will be happy to grow in good ground. They love water and soggy conditions because not much else will grow there. The leaves look like needles but are not and they do fall off in the fall after turning brown hence bald cypress. The leaves are feathery. The wood is very soft; in fact, you can mark it with your thumbnail. It is very rot-resistant and termite-resistant. Cypress is home to just about every Southern state around marshy or continuously wet ground. I think they will grow to between 50 and 75 feet tall. You are correct that they are gorgeous.

    Osage is an excellent firewood! It is equal to hickory!

  • @denniscleveland669
    @denniscleveland669 Місяць тому +3

    If those starts don’t start, it maybe because of air entrapment by the roots.

  • @jtc1947

    Have any of the crab-apple varieties been bred to be SWEET as opposed to sour? Can they be used for jams or jellies? Love the Kitty! All of the critters doing OK? BTW? OSAGE wood can be used to make BOWS!

    Check with your local NRCS next time you plant. They might be able to hook you up with a tree planter that you can hook up to the back of your tractor. You will need to get someone to help you but it's a lot faster than a Dibble bar.

    After 2 years be sure to clip off the ribbon or they could strangle the tree.
