    For future reference, plant a length of PVC pipe with the trees for deep watering in the future, just fill up the pipe, this encourages the roots to spread out deeper.

    Don't cover the dirt on the root ball. The roots have to be able to get oxygen for the plant to live. Plant 'em low - they won't grow: Plant 'em high - they won't die.

  • @jerryfender3482
    @jerryfender3482 4 дня назад +3

    Totally agree with planting them at ground level. Always plant a tree, shrub, flower or vegetable a few inches above ground level.With rainfall, the rootball will absorb the rain and sink some and once below ground level with each rainfall the tree will become waterlogged and drown.

    I remember when you built that thing! Make sure the root flare(the trunk next to the root ball) needs to be at ground level. If its too far below, the tree will die. Lift the tree as it settles. And mulch needs to be two inches away from the trunk and only about 3-4 inches deep,and spread out to the drip line of the branches(I’m a TN master gardener. I hope Bernie stakes those trees for the first two years. If you get winds like we do, those trees will need it, til the roots can take over.

    @justinotten6673 43 минуты назад

    Hey just a bit if advice on future plantings. 1. Get a soil ammendment material that has 2 main components; Microrizae fungus and a water retention gel. You sprinkle it in the bottom, mid and about 3" from the top of grade. It greatly aids in transplant stress. You dont have to worry about N,P,K, type fertilizers so much, just amendments. A few bales if oeat moss is also cheap insurance that you can use to improve the soil, and help with water retention. 2.) Extremely important is flood the hole with water as you set the tree and use a flat bladed shovel to tamp the soil down into the hole. The reason you want to flood it as you plant and squash the soil around the root ball is to use the water to eliminate any air pockets that naturally occur as you dig out the native soil. What you are trying to do is "compact" the soil around the tree, in a way. As the tree pushes its root zone out of the lighter loam it was potted the roots will die off if they hit any air pockets, 5hen the tree will die. Also getting some water bags to install around the trunk will allow someone to fill the pouch up with 5-20 gals of water the will be gently metered out around the tree, maximizing water to the root zone and minimizing surface run off. All this stuff can be bought online at stores like A.M. Leonard and it us cheap insurance to protect the investment made.

Volcano mulching is a no no, will cause Trees will rot off quick.

Looking forward to seeing the pond build, looks like it should be a good one. Pondering gifting you a subscription to the Arbor Day association. They used to give you a few trees to plant every year. I always looked forward to planting them as a kid but I never was much of a green thumb, of all the trees I planted the only one that ever succeeded was a weed next to the chimney for the wood stove in the house. Moved it to the front yard and it’s still going strong. Wishing you and your family the best.
