Another one of your very informative talks with experienced authorities of the subject. Keep them coming. Appreciate your efforts and intentions.
Sending my regards and blessings from the Mediterranean (Israel)🙏
Thank you! That’s so wonderful that you enjoying my work in your part of the world!
Very informative ❤
Glad it was helpful!
Great video. Very informative. Ty for sharing!!!
Thank you for the wonderful feedback!
Very informative!! I have one doubt, this winter we didn't had a snow fall, only few rainfall spells. My question is that, does irrigation is recommended in this situation( wjnter)? As of now , Some of Trees are stressed. Is it water stress due to lack of winter precipitation ?
Very helpful, and the information on paw paws maybe explain why I lost one of my transplants
Glad it helps and sorry about the pawpaws!
Diligent management is in the offing
Diligence is good!
Macropores drain freely by gravity and allow easy movement of water and air. They provide habitat for soil organisms and plant roots can grow into them. With diameters less than 0.08 mm, micropores are small soil pores usually found within structural aggregates. Suction is required to remove water from micropores
Did Dr. Kevin ever create an irrigation system video?
Good question! I’ll reach out to ask him and put a link here if he has!
Thank you sir,I ask I dig a fruit tree roots & found it dry
Hopefully the video helped you!
01:51 is why this is unclear to us. "...a couple of days...weeks..." Keep it saturated for days? How many days. Oh, weeks? How many weeks? Keep it saturated but let it dry out. Huh??
I wish I could be more specific on that. The problem is that it all depends on your soil. Ultimately, we really have to learn how to feel the soil to understand if it’s saturated or not. Sandy soil will dry out really quickly. Clay soil holds onto moisture. It’s complicated so I do understand your frustration!
@@Orchardpeople Yeah. I know. My trees are doing alright. But a mystery animal dug up one of my Dawn Redwood saplings a couple days ago and only left a hole.😓😓😓
