White Spruce VS Norway

[Foggy47]

I used your order form above to order 32 Norway Spruce from Meeker County. They had the best prices of the SWCD offices I check on....and offered the potted trees...which many will not do. Thanks for the info Buck!! My SIL is going to pick them up for me....and help me plant them. Also getting matts and staples. My well is about two hose lengths from where we will plant these. Going to do two lines of trees about 16 feet apart and staggered on 16 feet between the trees. Make a screen from the building site. Likely use my tractor and 12" post hole bit to start the holes.

If you can swing it, I would recommend and Earthquake Auger with either a 6" or 8" drill head. For the 4 yr tn's this will allow you to get the depth and width of hole for spreading the roots out. It's about $300 and will same you alot of time and your back/shoulders.

I've loved my 9" 3pt auger. I've got sandy loam on top of clay. I need to be careful not to make a hole that makes the roots set in water too long.
