Soo I found a patch of 50 or so BC saplings that have been mowed a few times. Lots of tops like a half inch from the ground. They were on the side of the hwy growing from a puddle created by a broken underground water line. If anyone needs one in the fall let me know ill ship em 2 you free of charge. I'm gonna make a forest only need like 5.

they have so many still there. When the heat let's up ill save some more. They are all topped so low more than once. I'm excited to see what that ends up doing. It just looks like a patch of grass across the street from UMC. They are being watered by a broken New Orleans water pipe. I think this patch has come up from seed yearly.

Message me when this heat dome goes away. I'll keep checking them on my lunch break till then. If I see New Orleans Sewage and Water board trucks that means we have atleast a year before the repairs are made. Im gonna spoon dig them if im shipping straight from the ground.

At this rate, the heat will be gone some time next year I think haha.

But yea sounds good man, definitely bookmarking this. appreciate it!
 
Will this trey be sufficient to keep the fabric pot wet. I figure water the crawfish trey when dry. Water from the top daily.

I'm gonna plant a few in every pot, heal back up recover then ship. Any suggestions from pros on how long recovery would take. If you want bare root in a zip lock wrapped in
wet paper towels. Dm me Asap
 
For bare root im doing bundles of 5 over night ship usps. From new orleans to Malibu that's like $29.95
