Boys and I started 12 of my magic pumpkin seeds today. I'm showing them how to take notes and what not during this experiment.

If there's a big potato contest, my son Jordy wants in. He has a knack for growing potatoes. I grew up on a certified potato seed farm. We get our seed in a week.

Well done. You're soon gonna be able to retire early and become a producer , consultant and jack of all trades. I havent kept track but how many trees have you planted since you bought that land ?

I saw a transplanted tree at a ND State Park and walked up and looked , I forget the species but the price tag was still attached the price was like $ 130 bucks . What got me was it was that is was from a Canadian producer.

To be honest deer and raspberries arn't such a bad combination. Deer eat on them in the winter and they produce just as good if not better. Wife had a yellow rose and the deer chewed it to the ground and she was soo mad . I forget the timeline but later that rose came back so big and beautiful we couldn't belive it.

True, the deer nibbled the 300 I planted last spring a lot last winter. I plan to grow these primocane anyway so they will be mowed to the ground every spring and allowed to regrow.

Thousands, just last summer I put down 5000ft of plastic and planted 4 300ft rows of juneberry, 3 300ft rows of haskap, 3 300 foot rows of black currants and 3 300ft rows of sour cherry. Im planting another 300ft row of apricots this spring also. you can see here where I was prepping the soil to put the new plastic down.

I hate to break it to you, but if there are cedars or junipers within a half mile of your place, the juneberries will not do well. I planted juneberries up north of Bismarck and a few at my current place. Most of the berries dry up prematurely into little hard black rocks.

The cause is cedar-apple rust.
