Starting An Apple Orchard At The New Homestead
I was given some apple trees but I had to help dig them out in order to get them. So Melanie and went on a long road trip.
We got three good apple trees and a fourth that may or may not live.
Two of the apple trees seem to be 5 to 9 years old and a third is 3 or 4 years old I think. The fourth tree was in the water and snails had eaten off most of the roots and some of the bark.
I stopped off to get some composted manure on the way home. Each tree gets a full 40 lb bag of manure in the hole.
At home I took a break before planting the trees. It took us about 6 hours round trip to get the trees but this includes digging time.
I also got Melanie some flowers to plant on our new homestead. There are three types of bulbs and she did a great job on planting them around the house and garden area.
I got the trees in the ground in our new orchard. This area will contain our fruit trees. Now we have a good start. The larger trees should bear fruit already this year if the roots take well enough.
The root balls were small and we got nearly the entire root system out of the ground due to a rock bed just a foot below the ground which kept the trees shallow.
I immediately got the electric fence up and running as well in order to protect my new apple orchard from deer. Deer love to nibble on apple tree shoots.
A package arrived in the mail containing a USB soldering iron. This is an interesting device which I never knew existed before. I cant wait to try this out on SMD devices.
