Last of Autumn in my growing area..stunning colour

Post by bodhidharma »

This is a section of my growing area and as you can see it is fully protected so colour takes longer. It gives me a chance to make selections on what i will develop into trees judged by how good the colour is. This year has been exceptional and has been like this for over a month now. Lucky me ;) As you can see some are still green and have not turned yet but when they do it will be a riot of colour :D

A Grow Better organic complete fertilizer product. Once a month, a handful in each pot, two handfuls in larger pots. I dont have the time to measure it out as their are probably two thousand trees in my grow area.
