Transporting apple trees

[chummer]

I have 8 big crab apple trees I bought and buried last fall. They are about 10' tall. I was going to bring them up to my camp next weekend while they are still dormant. Do I need to tarp them if they are still dormant? Thanks.

I think if still dormant you should be able to lay them on side and they should be good. You may want to wrap if you feel more comfortable so the wind doesn't beat them up so bad

I agree with aero. If you have a tarp wrap them up. Won't take too long and won't hurt them that way.

How are you feeling Chummer?

I am feeling a lot better. All the drugs seem to be working. Facing the unknown is the hard part. Time to start figuring out what I can and can not have. It is going to be a lot of trial and error and hopefully the errors can be minimized. Thanks for asking.

I missed that Chummer, what happened? I agree with the others, get the tarp out.

Get well soon!

I was sick for almost a month, it took them two weeks to figure out it was crohns then another week for the medicine to get it under control. I feel almost 100% now. There is no cure for it so I have to figure out how to control it going forward.

Definitely cover/tarp.

The worst part so far as I try to find out what I can eat again is apples. They just reek havoc on me. Hopefully this changes as they are my favorite fruit.

 

[aerospacefarmer]

Yes I can imagine that they wouldn't be too good for you My stomach gets weird when I drink hard cider

I have crohns too, nooooot fun!

What ever drugs they have me on have me feeling better than I have in a long time. Not sure how long this went undiagnosed. I have my follow up with the doc today to figure a plan going forward. Thanks for the thoughts. I feel for you Smallchunk, I am still in the denial stage, and now that I am feeling better I really don't think about it. I am sure the doc will bring me back to reality today.

Hang in there Chummer. ( and Small Chunk ). Today's knowledge and medicine will help a lot compared to 5 or 10 years ago. I hope you guys are doing well.
