Time to lift

Post by Chris Di Nola »

After growing a few trees for about 8 years in a small plot, it was time to lift alot of them.
Last weekend went out and did alot of pruning.
Then today had 3 mates help me dig out about 25 trees.

Nice load there Skip.
Noel was telling me that the guy who was in charge of watering didn't do much so the growth was not real good for the first 10 years or so. Looks like the last few have been good :tu: Must be due to the rain.

Regards,
Steven

Thanks guys
The first few years were slow but once we got some good rain fall the trees took off.
We still have have 12 Radiatas to lift and 4 good junis, once they are lifted might look at doing it all over again.
