What Habitat Work Did You Do Today?

I planted a bunch of apple seeds and some acorns the last few days. My apple seeds were sprouting in the fridge, so it was a time crunch. About half of the acorns were showing root radicals, so they got potted.

Fertilized and re-mulched the Concordia oaks I planted 12 months ago. Finished cleaning up an old fence line that was completely choked with MFR. Had to burn some of the dense clusters just to get in and clean it all. Ran over the area with a lawnmower and its just about ready for my altenating red and yellow twig dogwood planting.Screenshot_20260308_162728_Gallery.jpg
 
Pruned the last few trees I was saving scion for. Getting too warm. kerr, chesnut, and trailman waking up a bit. Pears got the grey fuzz. Sprayed copper on my peaches to prevent leaf curl. Used the leftover spray for apple trees suspectible to scab or cedar apple rust.

Didn't plan to start this project after a long day of field work, but saw radicals in the fridge and figured I better start my chestnuts and these hybrid oaks from @OakSeeds in the RM18s20260308_191839.jpg20260308_191922.jpg
 
I was thinking about saving some apple seeds and planting them as well.
 
I pruned our apple trees, removed one that had died, and served the zero-turn and side-by-side.

I will probably end up with over 50 seedlings this Spring. I'm going to carpet bomb a part of the hunting terrain with them and hope some of them make it to maturity.
