    Use your jeep to push the giant bamboo back on its roots and give it some support, cover the roots of the cactus tree, and leave that downed tree in your big pond! The turtles will probably like the deadwood

    Well, could have been so much worse. Know that is not what you want to hear. Do you have a chipper? Hell of a compost pile you are looking to form. Use your truck and gently push the Giant Bamboo up again, stake it and tie it off. It will be fine. Remove any damaged sections. It can take it. Glad you all are well. Hi Kate!

  • @pamelaflirtyskunk7698
    @pamelaflirtyskunk7698 7 лет назад +9

    FAR better than expected! Clean up isn't nearly as awful as downed homes! This was supposed to be FAR worse and COMPLETELY devastate everything in and NEAR its path but it DIDN'T do that. You need help with clean up? Once I can get a flight into FL, I'm happy to help everyone I can! In Tornado Alley, after a major tornado blows through the area... we're just grateful when everyone is found safe and our homes are still standing. Lives are certainly more important than "things." Things can be fixed and cleaned up. You definitely showed why USDA requires double doors on exterior perimeters!

  • @everist22
    @everist22 7 лет назад +51

    Kenan - good to see u. The Optunia cactus that blue over will be fine - pick it up (if possible - heavy) put back in ground (prob need to dig hole) and stake. Any other pads of Optunia can be planted - as singles - in plastic pots in a coarse Cacti & Succulent mix (plant top side up). They will form roots and can be planted out next spring / summer. Any small trees that are blown over,with roots attached, can be lifted and staked. All the best Simon (Australia)

    @RainCheck797 6 лет назад +2

    I'm from Houston, and watching this about a year after. After watching your Irma prep, all I could think of was all the flooding during Harvey, and the damage that not only homes but animals took. Some people lost entire herds of cows and horses, amung other effected. So I was genuinely terrified on your behalf.
    I'm so happy you didn't have any major water damage and your animals faired well!!!

  • @MegaAnimaldude
    @MegaAnimaldude 7 лет назад +11

    I think you're plants will weather. You can leave the ficus about as it is and connected branches that are near the ground will root and make it more gnarled. That big cactus and the bamboo just need their feet put back and the stress relieved, I think someone mentioned staking and that's what I'd do. While the fruit trees haven't been down long take cuttings! And the ones that are just bent cut them back to where you'd like them and hope like hell. All those pad type cactus, well basically any cactus, can root. Store the cactus pads until they callus then put them somewhere not too wet and nice and sandy and they'll give you an army. I think the storm has lent a hand in giving you a more gnarled naturalistic Jurassic feel. Great time to add new fruit trees, some cool ferns and fast growing plants like banana trees. Wish I lived closer and could volunteer to help you sort out the landscaping. Giant wood chip and compost pile is right, if you have the time and mix in some reptile waste then you could make a pretty respectable hill with all that. Or make some pretty beds. Good luck! And I'm glad none of the plants have passed the point of no return. -Someone who cares equally about the plants as he does the animals.

    Hurricane Irma was the worst!!
    I was stuck at the hospital for a 72 hour lock down and when i finally got to see what the outside looked like I was in complete shock and couldn't wait to see my family and my little bearded dragon that i missed soo much!! I asked them to take him in the cat carrier because i didn't want to bring him to a shelter for 3 days i freak out if he doesn't get feed for the day. Lol
    Glad you and your animals are safe 😊

    To save the giant bamboo: dig out around the uprooted area. Then put straps around the base of the uprooted stalks then winch them back up to 90 degrees... backfill the root ball and water profusely, should be ok.

    Hi, I've been checking for updates from you quite often. So I am pleased to see that all living beings are well. My heart goes out to you though. I am located in New Zealand, where I live we have the constant threat of earthquakes and tsunamis. We had a particularly bad earthquake in November of last year, evacuation looked compulsory because I live by the sea and the Tsunami seemed close. But it would be difficult to take all my critters with me. I was willing to stay and not evacuate in order to stay with them. Glad two are well, and I will stay tuned.
