Amazing transformation!

This Christmas my sister gave me a small juniper mallsai that was possibly dead when I received it. My mother gifted my the three trees below after realizing the small mallsai would probably not make it through the winter. Which it didn't. Turned brown and crispy. Rhododendron nursery stock...

That is what I did. The rest of the dust washes out of the pod basket holes during waterings. Working with it while it is wet kept the dust out of my eyes and lungs.

I have trimmed a few things back to fit on my shelf, but for the most part I am letting everything grow through the summer. No wire yet except for my first tree that I got a bit eager on. Once I get things cleaned up and make it through the semester I will make some posts on my set up. I have...

I'm new as well. This is my first season. I used the nappa oil dry diatomaceous earth and pond baskets (less than two bucks at Lowes) with all my new trees and they are all bursting with growth. Actually difficult to keep up with. I cut the root ball to fit into the pond baskets then removed...

I like this. I got into time lapse photography and astrophotography this way. Saw those popular viral videos of the night sky and decided to give it a try.

15-35 are on youtube. The only way to reach that demographic on a national scale with 10k is online. People get interested organically. Often times from being gifted a tree. Then they go online to see what it is all about. If they find quality content and a vibrant community they will stick...

Youtube. There aren't' enough outstanding channels, but there are a fair amount that are building right now. Once channels get a decent following they should cross promote with other related channels, gardening, diy, etc. Channels should be updated frequently to maintain a user base. 10 minute...

What if you rotate it 180 degrees and reverse the right angle? or rotate it less than 180 but not completely down?

Just got back from a cloudy day hike, the cloudy grey background is on point! Really shows into the screen depth on the trees. Not sure which side I like as the top and bottom, but I think the Rowan looks the best with the background. Looks just like trees I saw on my hike today.

I'm new, and going to school in Norman. Can't go to the club meetings in OKC because of class. A collection trip in the spring would be fun though.

Thanks, I think I will have to pick up a spade and a folding saw. There is a dump lot behind my apartment complex that may be a good place to start. If something is thriving in that mess I'm sure it would be happy on my balcony.

Pretty sure my entry is beyond saving. I'm not surprised, when purchased it was the only one of 30+ that wasn't brown or orange and the home depot guys were chucking them in the dumpster. I wired down the branches to bring in some light, but other than that I haven't stressed it. Just watering...

wow!

Thanks for the reply, it is a leyland cypress. I'm guessing the others were being over watered or were watered when they were frozen. So far the one I picked up is looking happy. Only a few brown tips where it looks like the foliage was cut with a saw. I think now that I've cut off the tape that...

Okay, I'm in. Any suggestions on keeping this thing alive in the short term? Everything around it was turning brown and I'm worried it may not have long to live. Either that or it is the strongest one of the bunch. Soil is moist, and branches are bound with tape. It has been outside under a...

Post some pictures. I'm in Norman. I'm a broke grad student though, haha, so I couldn't offer much. Ever go to the local club meetings? I'm a noob, but It seems like a group meets on the 2nd Tuesday of every month in OKC. They probably have deeper pockets than I do.

Is the contest still open? I received a juniper stick in a pot that I suspect was dead when I received it for christmas this year. I tried putting it in a shed for the few really cold days, and have had it in the sun on the mild days. The branch tips are starting to fade. I'd gladly run it over...
