    Would you also add some mulch to the top for heat, nutrients, and stopping evaporation?

    Thank you for the video. Very straightforward and easy to understand.
    Is this standard for all trees like for example a plum blossom tree?

    How often would this beef reporting please. I see it grows very tall. Ass new gardener, I'm Always confused as to what can stay in a pot and what can't. Would this need to go in the ground eventually please?

    I have several real tiny apple trees growing right now in peat pots. The roots are starting to come out the bottom. Should I repot in bigger pots and can I leave them in the peat pots or do I need to take them out of that before repotting. They are only about 2-3” tall now. Another question is what do I do with them in the winter months. Should I bring them in a unseated garage or should they stay outside in the pot. Either way what should the water amount be that I give them.

    If you forget crocks can you put holes in the bottom and put the pot on feet?

      Tap them out and look at the roots. If they are going round and round they need to be potted on or planted out.

      If an oak sapling was 6 inches above the ground then the roots would be around 12 inches. oaks in pots always have root problems. Best to learn how to alleviate root problems.

    • @trollgenetics2325
      @trollgenetics2325 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Cut the roots down to about half of what it is, shave it down on the sides and bottom but not too much. Cutting the roots away makes it to where it isn't all bunched up causing your roots suffocate over time. I always shave roots away when transplanting pot bound plants.

    What are the bigger black containers

    • @Thorml
      @Thorml 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      They're called Air-Pot. It's made from recycled plastic and supposedly aids in lateral root development, but the main benefit I see is that it's lightweight, and when the plant has outgrown its container, you can simply loosen the wrapped-around air-pot, rather than buying a new expensive container, though I haven't used one yet.

    That small a pot for a shrub or tree? Never. The are so expensive and planting like this is not looking a few years on.

    I don’t think growing anything in compost is a very good idea. Compost should only be applied on top of sandy loam soil.

      It's a tough call, who do I believe; a professionally produced RHS video or a random commenter on TH-cam.

    • @aligavary1160
      @aligavary1160 3 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      @@chriss8971 Actually it depends on what your growing. For fruit trees you should never use organic stuff because organic materials decompose over time and will damage the roots. You should use soils made from mostly minerals for permanent plants. for short term plants like tomatoes and such, it’s ok to use organic soils made from wood chips and other organic matter. Do a little research before insulting a random commenter! There are a lot of people on TH-cam, not all professional!

      Too small a pot, directly in compost: a recepy for disaster.
