Materials for SK/MG planting<BR></FONT><BR>Hi Charlotte &
Jamie,<BR><BR>The tentative planting date for the MG/SK orchard is the
weekend of 4/16 -<BR>4/17.<BR><BR>They still need various supplies -
they want to start with Bluex, then<BR>eventually move to hardware
cloth but not for now.<BR><BR>So...<BR><BR>* Bluex (Charlotte
ordered already?) <FONT color=#ff0000>If Charlotte doesn't have
any we may be enough leftovers to do the job.Orchard
managers??<BR></FONT><BR>* bamboo poles (I can procure, but where is
best source?)<FONT color=#ff0000>Forestry Suppliers(601-354-3565)
sells them in pack of 500, so I'm </FONT><FONT color=#ff0000>thinking
we should have some extras. If not they are stock # 17010
<BR></FONT><BR>* How much of each component of planting mix should we
get? <FONT color=#ff0000>I betting we have extra bags of planting mix
around. If not, we have been using "Metro Bedding Plant II mix PN#
65-4300 from Griffin Greenhouse Supply( in Tewksbury Ma. Griffin is
near where I work, I can pick some up if need
be. <BR></FONT><BR>* I have a bulb planter <FONT
color=#ff0000>and I have one if you need it<BR></FONT><BR>* Tall "milk
carton" - like planting tubes for backup nuts - where do we
get<BR>these? <FONT color=#ff0000>I have these. How many nuts are you
going to pot up?<BR></FONT><BR>* they have white pines nearby for
mycorrhiza - laden soil<BR><BR>* they could use more American nuts
<FONT color=#ff0000>Charlotte??<BR></FONT><BR>* Other
items?<BR><BR><FONT color=#ff0000>I can order what you need and ship
it to you and meet you somewhere to hand of the stuff I
have. </FONT></DIV>
