    Excellent video!! I watched the starter video and then this one. In June, a friend of mine gave me a container of potato sourdough starter and it's alive LOL. All kidding aside, I am feeling great about it!! I've baked numerous things and haven't thrown anything away yet LOL. Your recipe is basically the recipe she gave me except for 3/4 cup of sugar. I've always been afraid of breadmaking and own a great bread machine ... But I want to learn ...so I'll be looking for more videos. Your video made me feel like I was doing everything right!!

    I planted Dunstan Chestnuts when we bought our homestead 28 months ago. I had anticipated getting the land and already had the chestnuts, and some Sawtooth Oaks in pots. The Dunstan's are outgrowing the sawtooths. This year, I was able to get more Sawtooth Oak acorns and have planted around 125. Got about 10 persimmon seedlings out of 100 to germinate and grow. They're tough to get sprouted as they have a hard seed. I scored them with a knife and that helped, as I had tried to sprout them before. I didn't plant a garden that first spring but I had a place prepared and planted cover crops that year. Hauled in a bunch of leaves. Seemed to help.

    In the fall, I bought one off of Amazon and a Climax variety later on. I did great in the containers with peat moss and acidifier. Both plants lost leaves in the winter and, in March the leaves grew back so great. The Climax is fruiting now but the Pink Lemonade has lost its flowers and the leaves are reddish brown. I'm troubleshooting where I could have gone wrong. Zone 8a in Georgia here.

  • @EarlybirdFarmSC
    @EarlybirdFarmSC3 ай бұрын

    The only thing I can think of is you may need a little soil with it and not just straight Peat moss. Peat Moss can hit around 3.0 on the PH scale and that might be a little too low. Couple that with the acidifier you added, it might need a little higher ph. The best thing to do is to test the soil PH and see where you are. You are right though, the leaves shouldn't be yellow or red right now. IN the fall they will turn red though. Thanks for stopping by and commenting though. I really enjoyed reading your comment.
