    Biggest Apple tree I ever topworked

    The main leader still pearmain? Or is that all Priscilla. You topworked a few years last year or two. How are those guys doing. I do DR, but i live near commercial orchards. Bugs are horrible. I spray monthly and some trees don't look like I do.

    Bluehill 2025

    Turning point was founded maybe 25 miles from my camp. Guy on here nicknamed Chainsaw was the person who found it. Wanted to try a variety of rootstocks at camp. Antonovka I got most of them on. Have some siberian, a b118 or two, and few dolgo seedlings, but no grafted on dolgo. Debating...

    Still reading ip on options n stuff. Thinking the renta hundred share game might be Hitachi and maybe Dakota gold. 29 a share on Hitachi. They're picked for bill gates sodium reactor design. Bechtel is doing the work and they're privately owned. They do alot for the navy's nuke program

    My company throws in 500 into the HSA if I put 1000 in. Can I use their HSA for the 1500 and get an investment HSA from another broker?

    Lets say you put 50 bucks a month in the market 25 years ago. 10% gains thats $542 bucks. Stay off marketplace, avoid the gunshop, avoid applebees. Thats alot of 50's. I wonder what the Montgomery Burns's of Wallstreet got brewed for this week. Had an extra day off to scheme n plan...

    Whitetail Crabs 2026

    Some folks do some folks don't. I sort do in the middle. Get the lowest leader as high up as possible. I order less bareroots than I used to, but try hard to get the latterals at 4ft. There one or two guys on here they'll hack their bareroots hard. Make a 4ft whip. Trees still come out...

    Crabapple timeline

    I wouldn't write off commercial varieties. Galarina, enterprise, sundance, yates, and granny smith, Even heard red delicious has a good later drop time. Hate to put up all these crabapples and not have a few regular ones around. For guys who dont enter the bulk of their property, put some...

    Keep in mind your home's intrest is tax deductible. So, it's more like 3% because of the tax rebate. IT is still money out of your pocket. But, if you got a 5% car loan, thats eating your wallet harder.

    What Habitat Work Did You Do Today?

    I use the dibbler bar at camp. I find a regular dgip up, ammend, and put mulch down does alot better at home in my heavy clay. I got 25 or so seedlings I prefer the dig method. It is way slower though. A little lime ,fert, and peat moss in the hole. Usually use a graden cultivator, those...

    How old you think the violi and dolgo are. I didn't think dolgo held that much fruit this late. Got 2 seedlings in 3 gallon grow pots this year. Got 2 already at camp.

    Crabapple timeline

    Been walking by my young orchard everyday. Noticing Violi's is a bit slower to wake up than other crabapples like kerr n dolgo. Would you plant Violi's again? I think I have 3 at camp and 1 at home. Unfortunately, no scion to graft this year. Would of threw on a B118 to try out.

    B-118 Rootstocks

    Been trying to get my mitts on red splendor. I'd do both with them. I was refering to B118 as a seedling. I took your advice and grafted it. Had some buckman scion left. B118 has alot of positives, so it's worth trying to find a way to utilize them.

    Tangler hasa good dibbler right there. I have the same one. Sometimes using it too long it makes your arms rubber though. Bully's stones in the ground alot easier though.

    Might be a good year for that stock. Domestic travle will be pretty good this year. Venezuela / Cuba scare over the winter, terrorist threats from Iran. Covid isn't too distant memory for some either, expecially older folks. Heard GE Verona's 300mw reactor is going to be installed in...

    Hit that Roth. Governme.t is starting to crimp down on roths for folks making over 150k for their careers. Inside your 401k, watch your investments. My old boss got a rip to convert his 401k to a money market/ stable money before the 2008 crash. Then when stuff was cheap and ge had his...
