New Pecan Nut Plantation!!

in #trees6 years ago

Hey everyone, I was inspired by @gavvet on all his Pecan plantation posts check them out here https://deals.weku.io/community-deals/@gavvet/establishing-a-pecan-nut-tree-orchard-part-15-doing-some-archaeology so I decided to Feature my business partners new orchard too.

These trees have been in about a month now and really are thriving my partner says that they already starting to bear fruit which is fantastic for such small Tree's but knowing him they have just the right amount of compost and whatever else they need for optimal growth.

These recently planted Pecan Nut trees and a full irrigation system on such a glorious piece of land in South Africa, on the Outskirts of Pretoria.

This irrigation system they installed cost quiet a pretty penny, I am told and for a mere 50 Pecan Nut Trees, was it really worth it? They must truly demand a very high price, anyone in the know??

The pipes used were 50 mm PVC high pressure, they initially sprung a few leaks but the issue was bad installation. Try two summoned great success and all was swell!

Here you can see the irrigation pipes running right to all the Tree's. These are all on a timer (he certainly spares no expense) and irrigate the Pecans correctly for optimal growth!

Right next to the irrigation system I could not help but notice this spectacular tree. Some Chinese ornamental I am told with the brightest greens and yellow leaves very pretty indeed!

I been the 'bee freak' I am would not be happy had I not feature at least a bee or two right? Here we have a few of our hives that are on this property just off the Pecan Plantation, I can't wait for the Pecans to flower rendering some more amazing Bee food which will certainly also help our honey flow and production.

Those pecans are looking good @craigcryptoking. With the right nutrients and plenty of water they will flourish. Ours were like that in the beginning. With the drought we only have 100 very sad pecans left of the over 300
