2-stage grafted persimmon not leafed out after planting bare-root
Comments (12)Like someone else mentioned, persimmons often start really slowly. I think it is mostly because of the tap root. I bought a Garretson persimmon as a bare root and it barely survived. It just sat there and didn't really grow. The leaves were small and I told the nursery ( One Green World ) that I thought it had a virus. They said, "No, that's just the way they grow from bare root." It also looked as if it were doing nothing the next year. This year (3rd year), it finally has full-sized leaves and it fruited! They were right! The tree looks healthy and is doing great! I bought an Early Golden in a pot and it didn't have this transition. I planted it last fall and it is already fruiting. It was a large holdover on sale, and I got a screaming deal. It has about 7 fruits on it. I think the bare rooted one will, over time, be healthier, more drought resistant and have more minerals and flavor because it is drawing its nutrition from deeper in the soil base. It does take a bit longer to grow though. JOhn S PDX OR...See MoreRooting Marginata Tricolor in Water - When do I attempt to plant?
Comments (7)I'd get it in there as quick as possible. Plants that make roots in water are used to pulling nutrients from water. Plants that are rooted in soil have the proper ability to draw nutrients from the soil. Something i learned from Al. Most roots that are grown in water may die or not absorb any nutrients from soil. I would put it in dirt right away. Mist the leaves and keep it out of direct light. once new growth is coming along nicely its usually a sign that the roots are growing very good. I'd probably use a 3 or 4 inch pot for this guy. Goodluck!...See MoreAccelerating planting time after pre-emergent
Comments (5)The spreading of a good quality compost is always recommended to inject organic matter into the soil which, when carried out as a spring program, will encourage moisture retention, worm production, and good overall soil which grass seed will grow much better. Pre-emergent is, what it means....a means to prevent the germination of seeds which come from weeds, et al, It is usually applied at a specified time when the weeds are going to seed. Pre-emergent then is a weed seed killer. It is therefore, also a killer of any kind of seed---including grass. I believe a minimum time of interval between application of the pre-emergent and seeding a lawn, is about 6 weeks. This is the reason why the pre-emergent is applied when the weeds are sprouting their seeds which will deny germination of the vast majority ---but not all--of them. The company that did the application of the pre-emergent should have known when you can safely carry out a seeding program. Give them a call....See MoreQuestions about planting trilliums, jacks, and Dutchman’s Breeches
