Making the rounds pretty much kicking my ass alot of cleaning stuff up, trimming, removing branches, just putting in what I can when I can, on the menu 1st and foremost bt, spinosad and amyloliquefaciens with this weather 3-5 days and after rain also a pre-soaping dawn just to knock dust debris dead bugs mold spores whatever, monthly handful of DE around stem bug prevention silica and a few other things plants like, soil conditioner water retention just to name a few benefits, otherwise switched from tomato tone/garden tone which
I was feeling was suboptimal to bone meal epsom salt and good old compost been so focused hadn't taken pictures lately, still tons of clean up to come, minor reinforcement on plants everything seem good just staying diligent pretty gusty and may become more volatile, weird season tho what can you do but the best you can, a handful still need the second nets always something tho rome wasn't built in a day we's a tough bunch steady eddy wins the day, used to push so hard trying to get everything done burn out wear out and be frustrated with lack of help, switched mindset slowed down realized I'm stronger than I knew and I got this with true focus and purpose sometimes I shock self in what I accomplish, love this thing we do really appreciative, the entire world melts away in my happy place heart full mindful and grateful

Early on I'd get caught up chasing maybe when there was a definite right there, treat what you see, prevent what you don't, started cementing it and things finally feels right and trust me it doesn't mean no worries ever vigilant, signing off for a while just too much its game time and time to buckle up, good luck to all and don't forget those good bacteria and microbes definite Pic drop soon

A few rushed shots while pruning really doesn't do justice but they fat

Fighting a cold 3 rs rest relaxation reflection, combination of burning both ends, not enough down time this last couple months, recharging for the work ahead, sometimes a break is good regardless of what's needed, mind wanders questions arise negativity seeps take care out there be mindful heart full and greatful

Guessing I need to borrow a larger ladder can't get much over 15ft reaching, I need a pear tree ladder or orchard ladder idk heard them called a few things but I'm eyeing one, much needed if finances allow it, the stretching on a few was crazy they are definitely bigger than expectations but I ain't afraid of a good challenge

Most of what I can reach from the ground or step ladder has been pruned, on to the fun of moving big ladder around, pool ladder not the best but is what it is, some will be fun to even reach but ive been cutting access points in the nets, they are all connected and attached to fences on both sides figuring it out tho
