Iv never done grafting but after this many years of Home Depo trees not producing I need to do something. Are they to old to cut down and try a graft with tree that produces?

1/2 way up a big incline south facing slope. When coming out bottom field after PM hunt about same elevation you feel a instant temp drop I could never explain. I have apples in same orchard that most time will have some fruit. Those HD trees get few flowers and not able to tell you if bloom...

Have two others of different variety there also. Where planted 3 years ago, from root prune pots and have not really grown. Thats for another post but that nursery close to me I have had poor results from.

Nice wright up and keep us updated on planter. I have not fertilized in about 7 years using that seed mix.

If all he wants to do is cut hay have him plat cereal rye and red clover. Down there he could probably get two cuttings and help deer.

Give someone hunting rites if they maintain foodplots to your liking.
