So you only had to treat once? I'm still leaning that route, but tiny worms still scare me with my chickens. I know these are beneficial and considered safe for animals, but anything roundworm gives me pause.
These are the Trader cultivar from that tree in ND that’s survived out there for over 100 years. I wanted to get one as hardy as I could. Unfortunately they are tiny plants, but you have to start somewhere. I plan to grow them in the run (at least one of them) so it’ll be protected from birds. The only problem will be the height. I’ll have to heavily prune it to keep it from going above the hawk netting. I could always find a way to raise the netting up higher too I suppose.
I’m looking into starting honeyberries now. Anyone grow those?
My musa basjoos are in. Chicago hardy fig and mulberries as well. We’ll see how well they can survive a winter here. The fig and bananas will obviously die back to the ground, but hopefully put up new growth in the spring. We have fewer growing DDs than the typical zone 5 because of the slow spring warming.
I’ve never done the beans, but if there’s any of those to wait on it may be those. I think maybe @dryslot does them? Scallions may even be perennial where you are. I know some are perennial down to z6.
yeah pretty much this. Not sure if he’s in as much of a frost pocket like TAN is either. I know Bob tends to be a littler warmer than the rad pit ASOS.
