I find mulching trees pretty much eliminates
watering.. Today I'm excited, I got a load of chiipped wood.
Now, if there were just a hot chick out there
sunbathing, perhaps I would be motivated to move the mulch
around my trees. Lest I draw someone's wrath, I'm clowning.,
OK.
On a fruit note, strawberries are producing like
gangbusters. I find the new variety I've planted, Sushkan, is sweeter and
slightly more flavorful than varieties I ordered from Gurneys 7 years ago.
I'm thinking commercial varieties of fruit are not that bad. They are
popular for folks to ditz, saying they don't select for flavor, but only for
shipping quality, but, so far, I've found the firm fruit sets a lot longer
on the tree/shrub and gains sugar without going unduly soft. I know it's
not popular with folks on this list, but commercial varieties may have been
overlooked in this regard.
