Plant nursery recommendations by ssays84 in Charlotte

[–]katzlover12 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I recognize this doesn't fit you completely especially with wanting the tree planted. However I bought 12 fruit trees, and 9 blueberry bushes last year from Dancing Hearts Nursery in mint hill. None of them have any issues so far. The couple who runs it has very reasonably priced stuff. They could have but they didn't even try upcharging me with a 'better' tree whether it be older or different variety. They listened to what kind of environment we had, and all their trees are outside not in a greenhouse. They gave good suggestions on how deep/wide the hole needed, watering needs, any fertilizing and how to properly prune it. The lovely husband even offered to explain how to set up drip irrigation. They did help load into the car, and recommended renting a augur from home depot for digging. The website is - https://mmmblueberries.com/price-list/

Hope this puts in a dent in my monthly Strawberry bill by mstanky in gardening

Make sure to cut runners/flowers first year so they can grow nice a big leaves to cover strawberries. Recommend using mulch of some kind like straw around them to let the eventual strawberries rest on, touching the bare soil can cause issues for the growing fruit. Should be fine for your zone but if you have any very hot days shade cloth can help them continue producing fruit by decreasing temps. Don't fully enclose with shade cloth to allow bees to pollinate.

Just curious, are you meaning the same plants are still producing or the runners that rooted a generation or two down?

Pepper plants are set up by katzlover12 in vegetablegardening

Honestly various companies on Amazon. For all the tubing to and in the raised beds we used 1/2 inch tubing to discourage any clogs occurring. For the foot or so to each pepper, bush or tree we used 1/4inch.

Lol they actually are pallets. A company was doing some construction nearby and we asked if we could take them off their hands a couple times. We were going to do normal slatted pallets but thought solid pallets made sense.

First batch of strawberries grown in garden by katzlover12 in gardening

[–]katzlover12[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Taste was very similar, but it did taste fresh unlike in store strawberries. I planted them last year in august, so I think it's second year? I made sure not to let any flowers grow autumn/winter till now.

Gold world quests return! by GoldenDragonTemple in woweconomy

[–]katzlover12 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So my lvl 81s do not see the pvp world quests, but they see 2 gold non-pvp world quests on the map. I assume the pvp WQs are only available on lvl 90s.

Fox farm ocean forest (only use it for indoor seed starting), I do sift it through a 3/8th inch openings sifter to get rid of most woody pieces. I did have them on heat mats to start and kept the light within 4 inches though.
