I have a plum tree that I topped off in early September, which is the time of me writing this comment. It's still in the average 90 degrees here and won't cool till another 2 months. And the leaves won't fall off till December. My question is... Did I hurt my plum tree? Did I allow bugs to come in to open wounds that won't heal? I hope I didn't affect my tree. Any feedback is welcomed.

planted some apple trees on Thursday. Friday morning, I went and bought and applied "deer repellant" Saturday morning, the deer walked up to the perimeter of "deer repellant" sniffed it specifically, then walked through it and started nibbling the tree. The deer didn't give two seconds of a dam about my "repellant"

Very good video. Thanks.

My 11 year old just said “are you trying to get followers or make people throw up?! Stop going in circles!” She gets quite motion sick easily 😂

It was very helpful thanks, I have 2 fruit trees that started to bloom to early and we still in winter but our weather is very warm. Thank you very much

This is a great video! I’ve been watching a lot of pruning videos for non fruit trees but I learned more from this video than I did in in the hours of videos I watched

Creatures of comparison. You don't know til you try both. Chocolate and vanilla. Kids? You can't send them back where they came from so once you try it .............. .....,. And then some more. But it is worth the effort.

I have older trees in a rock garden that are producing a lot of suckers that come into the rocks and lawn. I cut them and use sucker punch but they come back in different spots quickly. It’s a battle all summer, like whack a mole. Any suggestions?

I don’t know if it’s scientifically accurate but that was the best explanation of a modified central leader I’ve heard. I think some forms of the modified Central leader leaves a weak leader.

excellent school. This is exactly the kind of information I was looking for. Thank you Sir.

OLD Leather Smith here, very nice, thank you, I purchased mine @ only 3" high now it's 8' high. I am guessing you prune in the fall when it's dormant. Thanks 4 your video. GOD'S BLESSINGS ✝️🥎🙃

Gotta suck to be a sucker😅 good advice brother

How to stop suckers?

and if you have 10,000 trees?

I have so many suckering trees owing to buying a 100 year old home that was empty for three years between the original owner and my move in date. Then I became disabled and was sick out for two year, totally. Then I took care of my parents property during a part of Covid and then my dad died of neglect because he was hospitalized but DIDN’T have Covid. (Bad time for a high blood sugar spike as diabetic supplies were more difficult to obtain…and no, not because of supply issues…I recently learned from my cousin in pharmacy the whole “not enough precursors” has been a lie. It’s been a created shortage.). So then I was caring for my mom for over a year after my dad passed as she can’t do anything but cook and clean and have hobbies…she never realized the physical plant portion of home ownership was WORK! She also wanted her actual forest groomed….in the meantime I have three lots in a city with dozens of trees, from a maple planted by the city that suckers like mad, to fruit trees. I haven’t even gotten diatomaceous earth spread from last fall to this spring to keep the Japanese beetles from eating all the foliage off a 100 year old grapevine!

I think we've noticed that the fence trick is really the only thing that really works. Our deer kept destroying our trees, tearing branches out of them or injuring them beyond salvation with their antlers. The fences kept them from breaking or eating the trees so that they actually had a shot of reaching maturity.

Google lens works great too!

Nicee 👍 I also have some fruit trees and they are a great bonus to the garden 😁

Just curious do all blossoms turn into fruit?

If you mean fruit trees, apples are pretty easy

What tree do you think is the easiest to grow?

I wondered what easiest way to do this would be. Thanks!

Love the Element in n the leaves

This is a dream for children

Amazing brother

Might effect presence of pollinators doing their job. How cold did it get?

I had a grandma tell us to put bad or old eggs into the gopher holes so they would move along & leave youe trees be.

Are you using this mix every year on “all” your fruit trees? Exactly which month do you spray? I live in Italy and have a wide variety of fruit trees and I spray them in November and February with just a copper mix but spray my peach and nectarine trees at least four times and the trees always end up with leaf curl problem. Using your mix on your peach trees do you have the same problem as i do? Lastly, how much neem oil and copper is in your mix? Thanks for your feedback

Interesting, is there much pressure from codling moth up there on your apples?

Thanks for posting, its fun to see progress updates!

I have a Redhaven peach tree and for the last couple of years I'm getting leaf curl on it. Not too much, enough that I just physically pick off the leaves, but what can I do to prevent it all together....what natural spray could I use?

I think you’ll need a higher fence!😂

Dinner!!

Have you tried the Irish Spring soap bar trick? I'm wondering if that works.

Black berry’s are awesome

Gotta love those water SHPROUTS!!!

Are you beekeeping?!

Sounds like the weather is a little crazy. It looks super nice over there!

I agree with you. Although leaves by themselves also can be useful as a top dressing. One of the best things I ever did for my raised garden beds was putting a layer of leaves over top. Almost no weeds and it holds soil moisture in during the hot summer months.

I’m thinking about doing rubarb in our yard. Just cause they are super cool looking.

Looks like fun!

Are you Steve Martin's son?

Good stuff!

"Sun Scald" in the winter. Is that like from the sun's reflection in the snow?

Do I need the tree wrap in Spokane? And at what age of the tree do you not need the wrap anymore?

Very interesting!

Easily the most helpful video on peach tree pruning I’ve found!! Thank you!

yeah whoever trimmed the pears and apples here created about 10 billion water sprouts and I'm kind of at a loss for what to do. will the ones along the top eventually shade the trees so bad that they won't be able to function?

I pruned my first peach tree last weekend. I'm afraid I went a little too aggressive. oops Hope it comes back or my wife will be sad.
