So....horses eat holly. 🤦🏽♀️ fenced them off.
3 bags of topsoil, 3 bags of manure, and still need more to finish planting these!
🤪
Then to move the rocks elsewhere.
Only a few left to pot and repot.
Repotted most of the tomatoes that are left.
Peppers are being very slow.
A few seeds failed, 1 is just sprouting. Once potted, that whole tray will go away. Peppers will stay on heating mat, since it's helping to grow them.
I don't trim anything except fruit trees. Wild n beautiful only. Would defeat the purpose, too. They're only 10-15 high and ift wide hollys. Need all of that and more to block wind.
Dry fitting the hollys.
Funny how they "shrink" once in ground.
They'll eventually lock wind.
my sad sticks. There's some green and bend to lower branches.
Got 4 barrels, dirt to mix for the rocky holes, and then ordered some spigot and irrigation parts to use the barrels as drip irrigation for the trees. Doing it by utv uses a lot of gas idling.
Two holes were mostly rock.
I'll pick those out, then mix rabbit poo with what's left, then plant the hollys.
Placed them where they should help block the crazy wind that flipped the ac unit.
52mph winds flipped it.
Sure, but that's how nurseries do it. So, there's no reason for them to fail.
They shouldn't sell in the dead of winter if it's a bad idea to keep in pot. Can't dig in frozen ground.
Pot up day!
Rapidly loosing space...
Cukes & cauliflowers moved to no heat and bigger pots.
Nice thing about clear cups is seeing when to pot up, if they're dry and if watered enough. Now it'll be more of a guess. Lol
The 4 cuttings got potted up and moved out.
Ignore the mess, shook off the dead leaves before I took the pic. 🫣
"Tropical non-houseplants can't survive in a house." Okay...
Cannot wait to kick them out to the porch!
