Yes that is what l do! l repeat it until 1 metre deep. You can use motorised post hole digger as well. I discovered by accident an easy way to get lots of worms. Choose an area out of the full sun and away from bushes or trees. Dig an area 2m x 2m a foot deep. Give the area a huge amount of water after wards. A few times so the water goes 1 metre deep. Then put 2ft cow or horse manure on top. Mulch. Leave for 3 months. You will be shocked. Also can use composting toilet as fuel even better. Repeat same method same hole. Leave 25% worms mix behind because all the eggs are in the old manure. HAPPY DAYS.

After many years of many years of planting trees the best advice I can give: 1/ strip the sod, dig the hole and put the sod upside down in the bottom of the hole before planting the tree. 2 / plant the crown above the ground level. Soil always settles significantly when plants are watered in a new hole. If you don't do this the crown will settle in lower than is healthy. You can always add soil if planted to high but if planted to low the tree can be killed by stem rot. In the diagram at 5:08 I would say the plant is planted too deep.

Thorough video, thanks! Generally speaking, most people now dig square holes as it encourages the roots to push out at the corners. Otherwise you risk roots growing in circles, as in a pot, if your deeper substrate is particularly hard. Roots grow in the path of least resistance.

Square hole is just as good as round hole. Creating grooves or small holes on the dirt wall will help the roots penetrate into the wall easier. Forest trees do well without the square or round hole. Tree roots are amazingly strong.

I was skeptical when I learned this method. However I decided to try it on one of my banana tree as an experiment. Actually I planted 3 banana plants, only one of them using this method to make a comparison. Also I modified this method and added some good fungi in the mixture (trichoderma) as a bio control agent also as an experiment. From what I read on some scientific acrticles from the internet, the trichoderma fungi suppose to protect the plant from bad fungis like fusarium, verticillium and etc.. not really sure about this, so I just give it a try:) After observing about a few months, I was blown away by the growth and performance of the Banana tree planted using this method vs the others using conventional method. My guess the air pocket creates aerobic environment for the good microbes and fungi to flourish under the tree thus resulting in excellent growth rate and healthy tree.

A lot of people are complaining about the plastic pipe. When this method originated many years ago they used clay pipe for the cavity. I was told the reason for it was that it would hold water but nowadays they are saying it's to help aerobic organisms thrive and cause the compost to decay faster. I don't know but it doesn't hurt to do it and it might be something to it being beneficial.

@wellnessandcountrylife

Yes, orginally they used the clay pot. It's more bio-safe. However, the plastic pipe would do it's job as well if that's what you have available. The sun doesn't shine under ground so deterioration caused by heat and cold is of minimal issue.

What, no biochar? Tip for digging on hard ground: fill the hole with water and let it soak for a few hours at least, that will soften it a lot. Also to fill the finished hole with water, preferably overnight, before planting. A little watering after each layer... In Mexico they add some sprouted corn, for growth enzymes I think.

at 23:05 you mention planting at the ideal time of year. I took the advice of Jim Putnam (I think that is his name) here on KZread and he said you can plant trees in the hottest months of the year but you have to prune the terminal buds on all of the new growth. I did that for two peach trees I planted in July on two different properties and both of them did awesome. The idea behind it is the new growth is what demands the most energy from the roots so you stop that demand and let the roots catch up. While the roots rebound, new buds form on the branches and by the time those grow the roots are ready to handle the demand.

The video is quite interesting and I congratulate for the efforts. If I may add my two bits worth as an agronomist, I would say that the blueprint, not bad to give an all around idea but being quite generalized, need to be modified/adapted to the area you live in (weather condition/erosion/soil texture etccc) and the plants you’re going to plant, since the structure of their roots apparatus will change greatly and so it will their need for minerals, support and expansion. Beside that even considering where the underground water will run (presence of springs and such)! which kind of plant has been there before and a test of the dirt itself. That will consequently affect the layers we may decide to put into our hole; The hole we have prepared for the tree is a great help as a starter for its growth, but if the other condition are poor and miscalculated for the real need of the plant we may find ourselves facing a lush growth in the first years and then a phase of stalling for the years to come. Simply meaning the plant may not give its full potential. Not to be picky, and definitely even simply planning to layer a hole is way more than 99% of people would do, but since the topic was about growing trees quickly I told to write down this quick reminder. :) Nice channel

What I would do different is measure the tree root ball confirm where the graft was so that’s not buried when you fill the hole. Measure the depth so you know exactly how the center should be left alone and dig around that center like a tower which the tree will sit on so when the soil settles over the next year or so, the tree won’t move leave 12” center. Also remove all the grass in a 4 foot circle around the center so the roots of the tree aren’t fighting for the nutrition that the grass is trying to take up.

Hi sure, let us know how your planting goes🙂

I have a guess as for why dry climates would use gypsum and warm ones would use dolomite: Gypsum is water-soluble, while dolomite is not. But both will dissolve in acidic water. You might be able to use chalk/lime instead of gypsum if you want. Fun fact: Most of the "blackboard chalk" you've used was *actually* gypsum. Another fun fact: Marble is metamorphosed calcite (like chalk and lime), and has the same "dissolves in acidic water" problem that calcite does, though it takes longer.

@Chandoggy

Ай бұрын

Lime is acidic, and gypsum is anti-acidic. People use these to regulate the PH levels of their soil to accommodate the plants that they wish to grow in that region. Lime adds acidity to soil, while gypsum reduces acidity.

1 change. Add a piece of PVC wen doin all this. Then u can water from the bottom & encourage the roots to grow down. Will help speed up growth also.

Just pour the water in the pipe & the roots will follow the water down. Happy planting

Hello! We use kelp meal, sulfate of potash, soft rock phospate. For dry area add 4 cups of gypsum. For wet areas add dolomite. Sea water mineral is alternative for kelp (source of iodine). Live earthworms is highly recommended but if you use leaf mould there will be earthworm presence already. Main/basic ingredients are compost, top soil, rock phospate. Animal manure if you have it available. I hope this helps. Happy planting!

thanks. learn a lot.

As an Arborist has done a lot of planting and definitely I’m not an expert but that does seem to be very deep as I can cause many issues.

In areas with lots of rain, it's best to plant trees on a slopy ground so water can run-off or drain.

I live in upstate New York and I have several clients whose trees are not doing well, fruit trees that is, I think this is the reason why they’re not doing well they weren’t planted well to begin with.

Such a helpful video. Thankyou! I have a question- does the pipe at the bottom have small holes along it to allow the transfer of oxygen? Or is it solid? Thankyou.

I have a huge untouched forest behind my house and i scrape all the surface material and add it to compost. So its all micro rhizomes, black live topsoil, dirt, and decaying material. Makes the best planting material for all my fruit trees. I dig out a huge hole then fill it up.

Thanks for sharing your experience.

You people seem really nice and I love how you get the whole family involved. I've always been taught as a landscape designer by trade, to dig a hole twice as wide as the rootball and only as deep as the rootball keeping the root flare ABOVE the soil.

A square hole is better for the trees/shrubs roots and You want to comb the roots out using a root comb or fork to create root spread and optimum nibari formation whilst Pruning about a 1/3 of the root ball, The rocks are for drainage, electrical conductivity and has an effect on the ph also creates air pockets - nice little orchid u have there tho 😀

Round hole saves digging-time. We normally don't cut the root ball to prevent less disturbance to the roots, but it's optional other people cut and comb the roots before planting. We have an evidence that round hole doesn't cause the roots to go around choking the roots. I'll post the video soon. Thank you for the comment, though.

My pleasure to share 🙂 Have a pleasant day!

AAAGGGLLL- I was in the middle of a response thanking you for this video. Microsoft interrupted me, trying to sell me what I don't want. It wiped out everything I had typed! Quick summary, I didn't know how important the rocks are. I have clay and lots of rocks. In one area of my yard, is all rocks, cemented with clay- takes me a day to dig a decent hole with a shovel, trowel, and a 40 lb. iron crowbar to pry the rocks loose. I discarded the rocks to a back yard wall to level the back yard. Filled the hole with mix of compost, original soil and (upper layers, decomposed leaf mulch). It never occurred to me to add worms. Last Year I made a compost pile that never got hot. Couldn't figure out why. I looked at it April this year and it was full of huge worms! I'm in zone 7A, southern NY. I start planting lettuce, radishes, onions, & root veg's, carrots, turnips, beets Feb. 1. It's May, I now have incredible harvest of lettuce, scallions & radishes! End of April I have my tomatoes trans-planted. now working on peppers.

Thank you for sharing your insipiring gardening/planting story. It does take a lot of time and effort to plan and do planting and gardening especially if the soil is reallt bad. We have rocky soil in Tennessee, we collect and pile them as we find them. Adding soil amendment is beneficial, and also making use of what available like top soil, leafs and other organic matter.
