I do have miracle tree tubes. They are either five or six feet. The wire rolled fencing is either 60 inches or 72 inches. Out of a 100ft roll, I usually made about 12-13 cages. I’ve probably got 75 tubes or more. And easily over 100 cages.

Yeah I do. I got my buddy out in Cortland county who I’ve given some trees to and my Uncle in St. Lawerence County.

Sorry. I’m in chenango county. In Sherburne

This is a tough email to write. I been planting heavily for four years. 100 plus apples/crabs. 60 persimmons. 60 pears. Lots of oaks and chestnuts and evergreens. Getting a divorce. Two small girls. The place is hers. I spent over 30 grand on trees and tree supplies. I have so many wire rolled...

Looking awesome

Chenango Co NY. ZONE 5a/5b I have around 40 Bluehill apples/crabs planted in this section. Majority didn’t fruit and less had a couple apple crabs on them. These were just the standouts. If I knew they fruited this heavy this early I would have thinned them but i got so much going on it’s...

You know I could have wanted more rain but it wasn’t terrible. This fall in NY seems super dry and no rain in 10 day forecast. Just got five pears coming from Bolu Nursery today. Guess I’ll be watering those well for a month. But I got so much more to do with getting ladder stands up and getting...

Checked up on my first deer orchard planted in 2022. All Bluehill. Road kill crab looking good. Didn’t check on it so never picked the crabs off. But still looking good. Also the winter crabs were loaded and let them fruit. First three pics are road kill. Last four are two different winter crabs

Anyone have any Bluehill chestnuts producing? I’m interested because I got a ton of his coming this spring. He says his Chinese hybrids go all around in October with some into November.

I was thinking doing all four of his lastest dropping pears. I don’t know if I want to plant four more this fall, I’ve planted a few fruit trees in upstate NY and had success but I say it’s a little riskier esp since they are coming from Georgia.

Bolu tree nursery. Nice a new website to look and new cultivars. But I see he’s in Georgia. I’m zone 5a. Says they are good to go zone 5. But it’s a gamble….im willing to take! Thanks I’ll put in a small order on Friday.

I planted two last fall. Believe it was an October drop and November drop. December drop just seems terrible as the chestnuts would just rot or the cold would get them. I’m in 5a/b upstate ny. The two trees survived the winter. Believe one had some die back but lived and the other one was...

No vole damage. Not wet with good drainage. When I pulled that mat up I noticed lots of fertilizer pellets all around the base. I put them out around the tree but the way they drained. 10-10-10. Burned the base and never could recover.

Anyone know if he will have full-size rootstock this year? I requested all M-111 rootstock last year. Hopefully it was. That B-118 is worthless in my soil. Planted several Droptine two years ago and one was already leaning half over. I ordered a small turkey crab and planted this spring. It had...

It’s deader than dead. It was really struggling. I pulled up the mat and I believe fertilizer pooled by the trunk from rain runoff. I have 5 other sweet advent and all doing fine. No fireblight. I’ll replace it with something else.
