This is one 18 00:00:57,253 --> 00:00:59,133 Speaker 2: thing we've been debating at our house because my wife 19 00:00:59,133 --> 00:01:02,053 Speaker 2: has now decided that despite it's despite the fact that 20 00:01:02,053 --> 00:01:04,613 Speaker 2: it's absolutely thriving at the moment, she maybe wants me 21 00:01:04,693 --> 00:01:07,133 Speaker 2: to move our pomegranate tree and this is the timing 22 00:01:07,173 --> 00:01:07,653 Speaker 2: year to do it. 23 00:01:08,653 --> 00:01:11,653 Speaker 3: Yes, this is right, and what a clever idea actually 24 00:01:11,693 --> 00:01:13,893 Speaker 3: because this is the time to do it, and to 25 00:01:13,973 --> 00:01:16,213 Speaker 3: do it because you got plenty you know, you all 26 00:01:16,253 --> 00:01:18,893 Speaker 3: have plenty of water coming in the future and they 27 00:01:18,933 --> 00:01:21,893 Speaker 3: are kind of more or less dormant, and that is 28 00:01:21,893 --> 00:01:24,813 Speaker 3: the good thing about it. So this is how you're 29 00:01:24,813 --> 00:01:27,773 Speaker 3: going to do it. First of all, you you, you know, 30 00:01:27,893 --> 00:01:30,613 Speaker 3: you have to consider the size of your tree. If 31 00:01:30,613 --> 00:01:32,493 Speaker 3: it's a small one, and I don't think yours is 32 00:01:32,493 --> 00:01:33,493 Speaker 3: that big yet, is it? 33 00:01:33,693 --> 00:01:36,453 Speaker 2: No, it's not too big. It's probably uh, it's probably 34 00:01:36,453 --> 00:01:40,013 Speaker 2: almost two meters high from okay, but you know. 35 00:01:40,013 --> 00:01:46,453 Speaker 3: Okay, well, yeah, could be she might need to help 36 00:01:46,493 --> 00:01:48,413 Speaker 3: you out with carrying it then a bit, I think. 37 00:01:52,933 --> 00:01:57,573 Speaker 2: During sleepy yea, but yeah anyway, yeah, yeah. 38 00:01:57,453 --> 00:01:59,893 Speaker 3: No, but there you go. So the idea is basically, 39 00:01:59,893 --> 00:02:02,573 Speaker 3: you get first of all, get yourself a trenching spade. 40 00:02:02,653 --> 00:02:05,653 Speaker 3: Check that is still one of my favorite ones in 41 00:02:05,653 --> 00:02:07,893 Speaker 3: the garden. There's a good space. You can go deep, 42 00:02:07,933 --> 00:02:12,413 Speaker 3: you can go narrow, and it has an enormous if 43 00:02:12,493 --> 00:02:16,053 Speaker 3: you like strength, if you lever it up, if you 44 00:02:16,213 --> 00:02:19,293 Speaker 3: like so long and narrow. There you go destination site. 45 00:02:19,333 --> 00:02:20,973 Speaker 3: You make sure that your whole is going to be 46 00:02:21,013 --> 00:02:22,973 Speaker 3: as big as the one that you get it out 47 00:02:23,013 --> 00:02:26,653 Speaker 3: of If not bigger, please because if you can make 48 00:02:26,693 --> 00:02:30,253 Speaker 3: it bigger, you will get extra drainage away from the 49 00:02:30,373 --> 00:02:33,693 Speaker 3: roots in the wintertime. That is important to stop root 50 00:02:33,773 --> 00:02:36,933 Speaker 3: roots having a problem with you. Okay. The other thing 51 00:02:37,013 --> 00:02:39,773 Speaker 3: is that if you have a larger place to put 52 00:02:39,813 --> 00:02:43,773 Speaker 3: your tree in a new site, you can also surround 53 00:02:43,813 --> 00:02:47,613 Speaker 3: that with wonderful organic material, with nutritious stuff if you 54 00:02:47,773 --> 00:02:51,333 Speaker 3: like friable loose material, and that means that your plant 55 00:02:51,373 --> 00:02:55,213 Speaker 3: will be very quick to reform itself in starting in 56 00:02:55,333 --> 00:02:57,733 Speaker 3: spring to say this is a good place, I'm going 57 00:02:57,813 --> 00:03:02,533 Speaker 3: to grow bigger book, that's it nice? Yeah, and that's good. 58 00:03:02,653 --> 00:03:05,613 Speaker 3: And then you go on no, you go yeah, well 59 00:03:05,813 --> 00:03:09,093 Speaker 3: all right, so you basically get when you want to 60 00:03:09,133 --> 00:03:11,573 Speaker 3: actually get the tree out of the ground, make sure 61 00:03:11,573 --> 00:03:13,693 Speaker 3: you get a big root ball, as big as you 62 00:03:13,733 --> 00:03:16,453 Speaker 3: can or as big as you can carry out of 63 00:03:16,653 --> 00:03:19,413 Speaker 3: the old side, so that you can move it and 64 00:03:19,773 --> 00:03:24,053 Speaker 3: disturb as few roots as you can. And that's why 65 00:03:24,093 --> 00:03:28,293 Speaker 3: it's important to have that size really and plant it 66 00:03:28,333 --> 00:03:31,453 Speaker 3: now and do it and don't leave it on, you know, 67 00:03:31,533 --> 00:03:33,573 Speaker 3: drying out before you actually plant. Do it not At 68 00:03:33,573 --> 00:03:36,773 Speaker 3: the same time, if you like, stake it if it's 69 00:03:36,773 --> 00:03:40,613 Speaker 3: a windy site, that's important. And then I usually put 70 00:03:40,613 --> 00:03:42,533 Speaker 3: three or four inches of melch over the root zone 71 00:03:42,533 --> 00:03:46,853 Speaker 3: and keep it all good until it becomes really spring 72 00:03:46,893 --> 00:03:47,373 Speaker 3: and summer. 73 00:03:47,453 --> 00:03:49,653 Speaker 2: Yeah right, just make sure it still has plenty of moisture. 74 00:03:49,933 --> 00:03:50,773 Speaker 2: Is the absolute cape. 75 00:03:50,933 --> 00:03:52,213 Speaker 3: Absolutely, Thank you sir. 76 00:03:52,413 --> 00:03:54,493 Speaker 2: All right, we'll catch you again soon.
