Tea Growth and Death
2019-05-18
This entry is just showing some pics of the new seedlings growth. They have been popping out for a while now, but are generally pretty slow growing. This is a view of most of the winter box, with last year's seedlings furthest away.
This is a close-up of one of the two bulk bins (250 seeds in each) that you can see in the foreground of the previous image.
These are Jiffy Forestry Plugs with which we are experimenting. They expand to over five inches deep. We seem to have one albino tea seedling growing here. Wonder if it will survive.
A closer view of some of the seedlings started last spring.
The outdoor plot shown below did not fare well this winter. I spent a LOT of time weeding it last summer after planting tea seeds directly in the ground, in the fall of 2017. Some popped up immediately but died over winter. Others came up in the spring but didn't make it through the summer.
Still, several hundred were doing pretty well including some one year old transplants. I added weed block and wood chips for the winter. This spring I found many of the seedlings nipped off at a level that was just below the weed cloth. Apparently it was a bad idea giving those voles (guessing it was them) a winter home!
