Ryan is a top notch outdoorsman. The trees he sells are top notch quality. The best on the market. Not only does he sell great quality, he takes the time to answer questions to help you along the way. You won't be disappointed doing business with Ryan. Thanks
Did you come up with a better system for people to order trees this year - have been on the list last 2 years but you sold out before I got notice to order- thanks
Guessing because most clonal apple rootstocks are dwarfing to one degree or another and they might not have the vigor to grow out of the tube. I'm guessing semidwarf or semistandard rootstocks would be okay (M111, B118 and the like). At least I hope so as I'm trying some tubes on some of my semidwarfs.
This is actually convincing me to just use 1/4 inch metal fencing - and NOT tree tubes! I'm not into pruning the tree branches and if the voles can STILL get at the tree roots, etc. - just keep out the voles from a farther distance.... thanks
Good information. Thanks for sharing. We’re polluted with gophers and moles.

This is amazing, I had no idea you were on the tube of you. I have to admit to you I don’t like those tree tubes at all lol 😂
What is clonal stock?
So the chicken wire doesn't injure the tree if it's not staked? Great setup.
You don't recommend tubes for trees on clonal root stock ... why? Thanks for the video.

How do you have it so that the tree tube doesnt slide up the conduit?
How can the water get to the roots with plastic/fiberglass weed mat in place?
Most of the mats are perforated.
What did you paint the trunk of the chestnut with?
