I ordered another 10-pack of Dunstan Chestnut trees this week. They should ship sometime the 2nd week of April.
I need to replace a few that I killed by over watering, and add a few new ones to fill out my grove.
After that I figured out why some of the trees were suffering I bought a couple dozen 20 gallon tree watering bags.
Those worked well for me last year. Filled them twice a week during the heat of summer, which was enough to keep
the surrounding soil nicely moist.
I need to get out there in the next few days, pull the grow tubes off, remove the dead leaves from last season, then
reset the tubes and install the watering bags. We should be swimming in mud right now but it seems the drought
here isn't quite over. If it doesn't start raining soon I'll be ready.
