- Subject: [nafex] Aligning the dominant root
- Date: Thu, 5 Oct 2000 15:48:31 -0400
This growing tip was given me at a recent
conference from an old-time South Carolina peach grower: Nursery stock when
barerooted for planting exhibits a definite dominant (lateral) root. Supposedly
this root grew in response to the magnetic field of the earth. Trees planted out
in the orchard with this dominant root aligned towards the magnetic pole will
assure the tree continues to grow in alignment with the sun the same way it did
in the nursery. This fellow swore such planted trees took off far, far better.
Makes sense to me. What do you all think?
