1 00:00:06,815 --> 00:00:10,695 Speaker 1: You're listening to the Resident Builder podcast with Peter Wolfcamp 2 00:00:10,895 --> 00:00:15,575 Speaker 1: from News Talks, b Gardening with Still Shaft Free autumn 3 00:00:15,615 --> 00:00:17,615 Speaker 1: upgrades on Still's best sellers. 4 00:00:19,255 --> 00:00:19,895 Speaker 2: Had climb Pass. 5 00:00:19,935 --> 00:00:23,815 Speaker 3: Good morning, sir, Good morning ce Pierre ro, Good. 6 00:00:23,775 --> 00:00:24,935 Speaker 2: Morning, A happy Easter to you. 7 00:00:25,495 --> 00:00:28,855 Speaker 3: Yeah, you is it Easter Sunday? No, Look, we always 8 00:00:28,895 --> 00:00:31,775 Speaker 3: call it Easter Sunday's world, and I do too. Yeah, 9 00:00:31,815 --> 00:00:34,335 Speaker 3: we had the same It's probably because we are of 10 00:00:34,375 --> 00:00:36,055 Speaker 3: a certain age and we it. 11 00:00:36,055 --> 00:00:38,695 Speaker 2: Might be age, it might be backgrounded. What came out 12 00:00:38,935 --> 00:00:43,375 Speaker 2: because I actually quite like that discussion and in the 13 00:00:43,455 --> 00:00:48,175 Speaker 2: sense that through our experiences we have terminology that it 14 00:00:48,255 --> 00:00:51,615 Speaker 2: reflects sort of where we come from and how we 15 00:00:51,695 --> 00:00:55,175 Speaker 2: understand the world. So what came out in this discussion, 16 00:00:55,215 --> 00:00:57,495 Speaker 2: just via the text, is that, like I would say 17 00:00:57,535 --> 00:01:00,935 Speaker 2: Easter Sunday because I'm of the Catholic tradition, and so 18 00:01:01,055 --> 00:01:04,255 Speaker 2: that's the language that we use. Easter Day is often 19 00:01:04,735 --> 00:01:08,375 Speaker 2: used within the Anglican tradition. So when you hear it, 20 00:01:08,375 --> 00:01:10,695 Speaker 2: it reflects something about where you come from. And I 21 00:01:10,735 --> 00:01:14,055 Speaker 2: guess you know, in a standardized language, we don't have 22 00:01:14,135 --> 00:01:16,535 Speaker 2: those differences. But I always I remember being in the 23 00:01:16,535 --> 00:01:19,615 Speaker 2: Netherlands watching the TV news, right, this is like forty 24 00:01:19,695 --> 00:01:23,695 Speaker 2: years ago, and they had some farmer from from Frishland 25 00:01:23,855 --> 00:01:26,775 Speaker 2: for example, who was being interviewed and they put sub 26 00:01:26,935 --> 00:01:30,455 Speaker 2: They had subtext, right, they had to translate him. Yeah, 27 00:01:31,175 --> 00:01:34,215 Speaker 2: and you know, you've got all of these dialects and 28 00:01:34,895 --> 00:01:37,495 Speaker 2: so on, which is part of sort of an old tradition. 29 00:01:37,855 --> 00:01:41,575 Speaker 2: As Dutch got standardized, there's less dialect, but you also 30 00:01:41,615 --> 00:01:44,815 Speaker 2: lose some language and some color and some insight into 31 00:01:44,895 --> 00:01:47,095 Speaker 2: how people see the world. So I love that part 32 00:01:47,095 --> 00:01:47,895 Speaker 2: about language. 33 00:01:48,295 --> 00:01:51,975 Speaker 3: Yeah, good, now totally, that's exactly what it's about. It's good, 34 00:01:52,135 --> 00:01:52,575 Speaker 3: isn't it. 35 00:01:52,615 --> 00:01:53,975 Speaker 2: That's the difference. 36 00:01:54,015 --> 00:01:57,015 Speaker 3: And you know what you're talking about all these little things. 37 00:01:57,415 --> 00:02:00,255 Speaker 3: The last few times on the air, you've been mentioning 38 00:02:00,775 --> 00:02:04,135 Speaker 3: the trips you made when you were a youngerson, and 39 00:02:04,335 --> 00:02:08,375 Speaker 3: I and A meant to constantly say something because you know, 40 00:02:08,495 --> 00:02:11,255 Speaker 3: I've I got the same feeling that you have, you know, yeah, 41 00:02:11,655 --> 00:02:13,935 Speaker 3: mucking around all over the world when I was a 42 00:02:14,015 --> 00:02:18,495 Speaker 3: student and being a really really really amazing student, because 43 00:02:18,495 --> 00:02:20,495 Speaker 3: it took me about nine or ten years to get that. 44 00:02:21,655 --> 00:02:25,655 Speaker 3: I was very thorough, you know, And the point was 45 00:02:25,695 --> 00:02:28,575 Speaker 3: that every winter I hated being in the Netlis because 46 00:02:28,575 --> 00:02:30,535 Speaker 3: it's too cold, and I would go to Spain, in 47 00:02:30,615 --> 00:02:33,975 Speaker 3: Sri Lanka and all. It's really crazy places. That's it, 48 00:02:34,015 --> 00:02:34,455 Speaker 3: isn't it. 49 00:02:34,935 --> 00:02:38,015 Speaker 2: And yeah, and I think sometimes that's just a personal thing, 50 00:02:38,095 --> 00:02:41,935 Speaker 2: isn't it. Like I love travel, and so you know, 51 00:02:42,015 --> 00:02:44,415 Speaker 2: you kind of go. I don't know, do I want 52 00:02:44,535 --> 00:02:47,055 Speaker 2: another type of house or whatever? Or do you go? 53 00:02:47,175 --> 00:02:49,375 Speaker 2: Do I want to travel? And my inclination is to 54 00:02:49,415 --> 00:02:50,455 Speaker 2: go I'd rather travel. 55 00:02:50,895 --> 00:02:54,575 Speaker 3: Yeah, same time, I was always like that, always like that. 56 00:02:55,135 --> 00:02:57,655 Speaker 3: I still thought I should go back to Mongolia. That 57 00:02:57,775 --> 00:02:59,175 Speaker 3: was something else again. 58 00:02:59,255 --> 00:03:01,615 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I suspect your travel is a bit more 59 00:03:01,655 --> 00:03:02,735 Speaker 2: extensive than mine. 60 00:03:02,775 --> 00:03:05,415 Speaker 3: But well I was a tour leader for a while. 61 00:03:07,895 --> 00:03:12,375 Speaker 2: And why does that not surprise me? Somehow? That surprise me? 62 00:03:12,775 --> 00:03:15,135 Speaker 3: In fact, somebody asked me, can you do it to 63 00:03:15,135 --> 00:03:17,095 Speaker 3: to the chettam Islands.

Did you used to live in Langholm. Yes, 187 00:09:40,055 --> 00:09:42,495 Speaker 11: that's right down the hill from the roundabout. 188 00:09:42,055 --> 00:09:42,695 Speaker 3: On the left. 189 00:09:43,335 --> 00:09:46,135 Speaker 11: Yes, yeah, I think I think I got them from 190 00:09:46,175 --> 00:09:48,415 Speaker 11: you know, anyway. 191 00:09:48,375 --> 00:09:52,455 Speaker 3: Well be, but I can't. I probably had some things 192 00:09:52,535 --> 00:09:56,175 Speaker 3: left over. Did I actually charged for those things you did? 193 00:09:56,575 --> 00:09:58,575 Speaker 11: I was building lockal house restaurant on the top. I 194 00:09:58,615 --> 00:10:00,255 Speaker 11: needed six palms for the inside. 195 00:10:00,775 --> 00:10:03,815 Speaker 3: I see, okay, yeah, no, yeah, there could have been. 196 00:10:04,415 --> 00:10:05,855 Speaker 3: This is the long time ago many. 197 00:10:07,215 --> 00:10:09,775 Speaker 11: I bought six of them when I was sile, gave 198 00:10:09,815 --> 00:10:11,975 Speaker 11: them two friends and look out before died off. I've 199 00:10:12,015 --> 00:10:14,415 Speaker 11: got two left. There's quite a long time ago. But 200 00:10:14,655 --> 00:10:17,415 Speaker 11: they're actually if I think they need bigger pots. They're 201 00:10:17,415 --> 00:10:21,335 Speaker 11: about two meters tall. And my concern is that if 202 00:10:21,375 --> 00:10:23,535 Speaker 11: I leave them too long in the pots they're in now, 203 00:10:24,415 --> 00:10:25,175 Speaker 11: will they die? 204 00:10:25,975 --> 00:10:28,055 Speaker 3: Well, they could do, because they really do need to 205 00:10:28,095 --> 00:10:29,015 Speaker 3: stretch their legs. 206 00:10:29,175 --> 00:10:32,535 Speaker 11: Yeah right, Okay, isn't a good. 207 00:10:32,415 --> 00:10:35,295 Speaker 3: Idea to plant? To plant them outside? Maybe if you 208 00:10:35,375 --> 00:10:39,375 Speaker 3: don't want a huge pot and having to wreck your 209 00:10:39,415 --> 00:10:42,495 Speaker 3: butt back to change their position, you know what I mean? 210 00:10:42,615 --> 00:10:44,415 Speaker 11: Well, that may that may be an option action. But 211 00:10:44,455 --> 00:10:47,215 Speaker 11: I'm actually moving south south and I was trying to 212 00:10:47,215 --> 00:10:49,015 Speaker 11: work out whether I keep them more sell them. So, 213 00:10:49,335 --> 00:10:52,015 Speaker 11: but my concern is the pots. They look a bit potbound. 214 00:10:52,775 --> 00:10:56,775 Speaker 3: Okay, yeah, okay, you can do that. The other thing 215 00:10:56,855 --> 00:10:58,775 Speaker 3: is of course, if you are moving, and if you 216 00:10:58,855 --> 00:11:01,415 Speaker 3: want to move them, leave them in the pot until you've. 217 00:11:01,255 --> 00:11:05,215 Speaker 11: Moved, right, Yeah, if. 218 00:11:04,375 --> 00:11:06,815 Speaker 3: That's if that's the case, you know, because they know 219 00:11:06,855 --> 00:11:09,135 Speaker 3: where they are at. And then if they're going to 220 00:11:09,175 --> 00:11:11,055 Speaker 3: a new place, you can actually either let them go 221 00:11:11,175 --> 00:11:13,215 Speaker 3: in the wild, or you can get them a really 222 00:11:13,255 --> 00:11:14,895 Speaker 3: big pot and make sure that you know where the 223 00:11:14,975 --> 00:11:17,175 Speaker 3: pot's going to be so you don't have to shift 224 00:11:17,215 --> 00:11:18,815 Speaker 3: the two of them. 225 00:11:19,095 --> 00:11:21,335 Speaker 11: Yeah, that's true, but I think sting them in the 226 00:11:21,335 --> 00:11:23,055 Speaker 11: ground is probably the way to go because they're getting 227 00:11:23,095 --> 00:11:26,815 Speaker 11: quite big. Absolutely, that's all I need to know, So 228 00:11:26,895 --> 00:11:29,015 Speaker 11: they will die if I don't do something about it, 229 00:11:29,055 --> 00:11:29,895 Speaker 11: and reasonably soon. 230 00:11:30,375 --> 00:11:34,455 Speaker 3: Yeah. Well, they don't like to be pot bound really 231 00:11:34,495 --> 00:11:36,095 Speaker 3: for the rest of their lives. There you go. 232 00:11:36,255 --> 00:11:40,735 Speaker 11: No, all right, thank you very much for that, much appreciated. 233 00:11:40,895 --> 00:11:42,655 Speaker 2: You have a great day. John, thank you very much. 234 00:11:42,735 --> 00:11:45,095 Speaker 2: And Rachel, good morning to you. 235 00:11:46,095 --> 00:11:50,535 Speaker 10: Oh, good morning. I'm just ringing. We had bought some 236 00:11:50,575 --> 00:11:54,815 Speaker 10: beautiful blue bamboo, like sort of five big punts of it, 237 00:11:54,935 --> 00:11:58,095 Speaker 10: quite pricey, about five hundred dollars fruit, and then we 238 00:11:58,215 --> 00:12:01,455 Speaker 10: rented our property out for a while and when we've 239 00:12:01,455 --> 00:12:04,495 Speaker 10: come back, it's all gone to seed and sort of 240 00:12:04,535 --> 00:12:08,175 Speaker 10: gone yellow. It's got the tiny odd little bit of 241 00:12:08,255 --> 00:12:11,815 Speaker 10: green foliage on it. And I'm just wondering if once 242 00:12:11,855 --> 00:12:14,175 Speaker 10: it's gone to seed that it is it sort of 243 00:12:14,415 --> 00:12:19,495 Speaker 10: just did Now no new little tubers down the bottom 244 00:12:19,575 --> 00:12:22,055 Speaker 10: or anything like that, like everything's gone to seed. 245 00:12:23,415 --> 00:12:26,055 Speaker 3: Oh really? And is there no new gross it's a 246 00:12:26,135 --> 00:12:28,335 Speaker 3: real bamboo, isn't it the tropical blue? 247 00:12:28,615 --> 00:12:32,535 Speaker 10: It is the tropical blue. It's got the beautiful blue. 248 00:12:34,615 --> 00:12:36,295 Speaker 10: And I did it. It was a gorgeous sort of 249 00:12:36,495 --> 00:12:38,895 Speaker 10: five big clumps. Normally you can see the little tubers 250 00:12:38,975 --> 00:12:42,495 Speaker 10: coming up down the bottom. There's only a couple of 251 00:12:42,575 --> 00:12:45,335 Speaker 10: little bits of greenery on some of them, but it's 252 00:12:45,455 --> 00:12:47,855 Speaker 10: all gone sort of yellowy brown, and with. 253 00:12:47,975 --> 00:12:54,095 Speaker 3: All the seed, it doesn't look good. No tell me, 254 00:12:54,615 --> 00:12:57,775 Speaker 3: so did you ever get new shoots from the bottom? 255 00:12:58,055 --> 00:13:00,735 Speaker 10: Oh yes, we did, we did before before we as 256 00:13:00,735 --> 00:13:02,695 Speaker 10: I said, we've rented our house that has come back. 257 00:13:03,455 --> 00:13:06,255 Speaker 10: We're out in West Aalkland and now it's all gone 258 00:13:06,375 --> 00:13:08,895 Speaker 10: on to see like it's such a shame because it 259 00:13:08,935 --> 00:13:13,735 Speaker 10: was really beautiful and there's no little We've got other 260 00:13:13,815 --> 00:13:17,215 Speaker 10: bamboo grown on our property that we purposely planted, and 261 00:13:17,255 --> 00:13:20,215 Speaker 10: they've all got the little you know tubers and beautiful 262 00:13:20,255 --> 00:13:22,615 Speaker 10: new shoots coming through. This has gotten not a single 263 00:13:22,975 --> 00:13:26,215 Speaker 10: So I was thinking, is that just looking up online? 264 00:13:26,255 --> 00:13:29,015 Speaker 10: And I think once it goes to seed, it's. 265 00:13:28,855 --> 00:13:32,255 Speaker 3: To be quite honest, I have never grown it, and 266 00:13:32,335 --> 00:13:35,215 Speaker 3: I could have grown it in Langome and Tityungi where 267 00:13:35,215 --> 00:13:38,855 Speaker 3: I was, but I've never grown And in fact I 268 00:13:38,975 --> 00:13:41,295 Speaker 3: got rid of some of the bamboo head and meatal 269 00:13:41,335 --> 00:13:45,175 Speaker 3: bank at Substates because it was a real vagrant thing 270 00:13:45,255 --> 00:13:46,095 Speaker 3: that went everything. 271 00:13:46,775 --> 00:13:50,015 Speaker 10: These aren't these aren't the horrible ones. These are the 272 00:13:50,055 --> 00:13:52,295 Speaker 10: specialty ones you buy on purpose to play. 273 00:13:52,455 --> 00:13:55,015 Speaker 3: I know exactly what you mean, because I've seen them, 274 00:13:55,095 --> 00:13:58,415 Speaker 3: and there was a bamboo grower in west Auckland somewhere. 275 00:13:59,535 --> 00:14:00,055 Speaker 4: We've got them. 276 00:14:00,535 --> 00:14:08,495 Speaker 3: Yes, that's the one. Expect memories. No, I can't tell 277 00:14:08,535 --> 00:14:11,735 Speaker 3: you why, why why this blue bamboo is suffering or 278 00:14:11,775 --> 00:14:14,655 Speaker 3: why it is going down to gurgle, especially especially when 279 00:14:14,695 --> 00:14:18,615 Speaker 3: you pay quite a bit of money for it. So 280 00:14:18,735 --> 00:14:20,775 Speaker 3: you go back to that particular person and see what 281 00:14:20,815 --> 00:14:21,495 Speaker 3: the story is. 282 00:14:21,455 --> 00:14:23,015 Speaker 10: And I will go back. 283 00:14:23,095 --> 00:14:23,855 Speaker 12: I will go back. 284 00:14:23,895 --> 00:14:26,215 Speaker 10: I just I've tried to. I don't know if that's 285 00:14:26,255 --> 00:14:28,695 Speaker 10: not water, but I think when I did read it, 286 00:14:28,815 --> 00:14:30,415 Speaker 10: sometimes you don't really know when they're going to go 287 00:14:30,455 --> 00:14:32,375 Speaker 10: to seed, but when they go to seed that they 288 00:14:32,455 --> 00:14:35,575 Speaker 10: sort of die, and it seems to be what happened. 289 00:14:35,615 --> 00:14:38,535 Speaker 10: But I'm just hoping that, you know, just watering them 290 00:14:38,575 --> 00:14:41,215 Speaker 10: and putting malt around them and trying to take here 291 00:14:41,855 --> 00:14:43,855 Speaker 10: and see if it will revive itself. But I thought 292 00:14:43,855 --> 00:14:45,815 Speaker 10: i'd bring and see if you knew any tricks. But 293 00:14:45,935 --> 00:14:47,295 Speaker 10: we'll go back out and then ask her. 294 00:14:47,935 --> 00:14:51,295 Speaker 3: I'm sorry, I've never seen I've never done the blue bamboo. 295 00:14:51,375 --> 00:14:53,975 Speaker 3: I know what it looks like. It looks absolutely gorgeous, axtually. 296 00:14:55,175 --> 00:14:58,175 Speaker 10: Okay, thank you very much.

Yeah, oh yeah, 301 00:15:06,335 --> 00:15:10,295 Speaker 2: it's it is so prolific that and you. 302 00:15:10,215 --> 00:15:13,975 Speaker 3: Know what you need for bamboo to contain it or 303 00:15:14,015 --> 00:15:16,255 Speaker 3: get rid of it. You need to build it with 304 00:15:16,415 --> 00:15:19,735 Speaker 3: one of those things that go seventy centimeters deep into 305 00:15:19,735 --> 00:15:24,695 Speaker 3: the soil and trench and leave the trench open. Yeah. 306 00:15:24,855 --> 00:15:28,975 Speaker 2: Water process, water process, hard to get rid of. Right here, Johnny, 307 00:15:28,975 --> 00:15:31,015 Speaker 2: talk to me about monarch.

I love it. 316 00:15:55,935 --> 00:15:58,735 Speaker 12: We've had swamp plans for a few years to help 317 00:15:58,775 --> 00:16:00,895 Speaker 12: pollination with all that fro trees were on a quarter 318 00:16:00,935 --> 00:16:04,295 Speaker 12: of akroom. We've got dozens of different trees all sort 319 00:16:04,335 --> 00:16:08,735 Speaker 12: of stuck together but doing well.

I've noticed 323 00:16:18,255 --> 00:16:23,095 Speaker 12: that some of the cocoons are being wiped out. I've 324 00:16:23,095 --> 00:16:29,535 Speaker 12: seen the praying mantis is attacking the caterpillars and eating them, yea, 325 00:16:29,655 --> 00:16:32,615 Speaker 12: eating them alive. And they're not just the Aussie or 326 00:16:32,655 --> 00:16:36,295 Speaker 12: South African praying mantesters. They're are native ones too.

They love to eat protein and they 339 00:17:20,415 --> 00:17:23,375 Speaker 3: will have a go at all your caterpillars. The moment 340 00:17:23,415 --> 00:17:26,295 Speaker 3: they know there's caterpillars there, they put it on their 341 00:17:26,335 --> 00:17:30,215 Speaker 3: GPS and I'm not joking, they'll know. So what I 342 00:17:30,295 --> 00:17:34,295 Speaker 3: tend to do with my swamp plants is they're in pots. 343 00:17:34,615 --> 00:17:36,175 Speaker 3: I put them on the other side of the house, 344 00:17:36,335 --> 00:17:38,655 Speaker 3: or move them about ten meters in a different direction, 345 00:17:39,215 --> 00:17:41,215 Speaker 3: and then they come back and you see them scratching 346 00:17:41,215 --> 00:17:43,375 Speaker 3: their head, going, I'm sure they were here. You know, 347 00:17:43,415 --> 00:17:46,495 Speaker 3: there were some caporis and they're all gone. That is 348 00:17:46,535 --> 00:17:49,655 Speaker 3: the best way to protect your caterpillars from that sort 349 00:17:49,655 --> 00:17:52,975 Speaker 3: of attacks. Gosh, yeah, go. 350 00:17:52,975 --> 00:17:57,255 Speaker 12: On, yeah, we see this with things returning. There's heroes 351 00:17:57,295 --> 00:17:59,975 Speaker 12: returning to a construction site that was once a swamp. 352 00:18:00,415 --> 00:18:02,135 Speaker 12: So I guess it's the same in the insect world. 353 00:18:02,175 --> 00:18:04,735 Speaker 12: This is the birds. They return and. 354 00:18:04,695 --> 00:18:07,655 Speaker 3: They remember where they were, remember where it is, And 355 00:18:07,695 --> 00:18:10,015 Speaker 3: that's the that is the cool thing. The moment they 356 00:18:10,015 --> 00:18:11,815 Speaker 3: discovered it on the other side of the house. You 357 00:18:11,855 --> 00:18:13,535 Speaker 3: just put it on the other side of the house 358 00:18:13,535 --> 00:18:16,535 Speaker 3: again and they go like somebody's playing a game here, 359 00:18:16,575 --> 00:18:20,815 Speaker 3: you know what I mean. But it's yeah, it wonderful 360 00:18:21,015 --> 00:18:22,855 Speaker 3: works wonderfully, Johnny, that's the way to go. 361 00:18:23,615 --> 00:18:26,375 Speaker 12: Thank you, Thank you very much, have a grady that and. 362 00:18:26,375 --> 00:18:30,695 Speaker 2: Welcome all this, Johnny. Take care. Actually, quick text. Is 363 00:18:30,735 --> 00:18:33,935 Speaker 2: it normal for deadly nightshade to be so prolific at 364 00:18:33,975 --> 00:18:34,375 Speaker 2: the moment? 365 00:18:36,495 --> 00:18:39,575 Speaker 3: Yes, it can be. Actually, it's it's at the moment. 366 00:18:39,615 --> 00:18:41,255 Speaker 3: I've got quite a bit of nightshade as well. 367 00:18:41,335 --> 00:18:45,095 Speaker 2: Yeah I've noticed it too. Yeah, pardon my ignorance, But 368 00:18:45,135 --> 00:18:47,255 Speaker 2: why do they call it deadly nightshade? And is it 369 00:18:47,335 --> 00:18:50,775 Speaker 2: actually deadly? And I say this after sending my young 370 00:18:50,775 --> 00:18:52,455 Speaker 2: fellow out to clean it all out the other day 371 00:18:52,495 --> 00:18:54,055 Speaker 2: and then I went, oh, by the way, that was 372 00:18:54,095 --> 00:18:55,015 Speaker 2: deadly nightshade. 373 00:18:55,295 --> 00:18:59,535 Speaker 3: Yeah, we're gloves right, okay. And the reason is it 374 00:18:59,695 --> 00:19:03,095 Speaker 3: actually also does some nasty stuff to your skin sometimes. 375 00:19:03,055 --> 00:19:06,295 Speaker 2: Right, The leaves or the little blackberries that are on there. 376 00:19:06,855 --> 00:19:09,375 Speaker 2: All three fantastic. 377 00:19:09,015 --> 00:19:13,175 Speaker 3: Everything, right, So especially the berries, but the leaves and 378 00:19:13,215 --> 00:19:15,615 Speaker 3: the and the stuff that they exude from their stems 379 00:19:15,975 --> 00:19:18,415 Speaker 3: is not good for you either, so that's why. And 380 00:19:18,775 --> 00:19:21,295 Speaker 3: I've got reasonably sensitive skin, so I tend to wear 381 00:19:21,415 --> 00:19:22,015 Speaker 3: gloves for that. 382 00:19:22,375 --> 00:19:25,375 Speaker 2: Yeah right, okay, I'll remember that for next time. 383 00:19:26,415 --> 00:19:33,295 Speaker 3: Yeah, sorry, right, owen a very good morning. 384 00:19:33,975 --> 00:19:37,455 Speaker 13: Good morning to you today.

And I'm thinking un answer of 393 00:20:06,815 --> 00:20:09,295 Speaker 13: bringing it back, you know, like should I cut it 394 00:20:09,335 --> 00:20:13,735 Speaker 13: off and let regrow sort of takeover or is it 395 00:20:13,895 --> 00:20:16,455 Speaker 13: pretty well gone once all the leaders A did on it. 396 00:20:16,975 --> 00:20:20,455 Speaker 3: Not necessarily, it depends entirely.

You're never lost with these things. 405 00:20:40,135 --> 00:20:43,495 Speaker 3: You never know until it absolutely finishes. But if it 406 00:20:43,655 --> 00:20:48,335 Speaker 3: just gets new foliage on, it might referbs yourself back 407 00:20:48,375 --> 00:20:51,215 Speaker 3: into a system. You might have a much shorter tree. 408 00:20:51,495 --> 00:20:55,295 Speaker 3: But it could happen. And if it doesn't, you know, 409 00:20:55,415 --> 00:20:57,895 Speaker 3: we're not to plant them next time.

But the tree 513 00:26:17,895 --> 00:26:21,175 Speaker 4: really hasn't recovered. And I'm just wondering whether I should 514 00:26:21,175 --> 00:26:24,455 Speaker 4: pull it out and get rid of it. And another one, 515 00:26:24,455 --> 00:26:27,815 Speaker 4: probably in a different spot, just surely, because I had 516 00:26:27,855 --> 00:26:30,975 Speaker 4: heard that some trees are what was susceptible to courl 517 00:26:30,975 --> 00:26:31,455 Speaker 4: than others. 518 00:26:32,135 --> 00:26:35,615 Speaker 3: Absolutely. And you know what, Rod, you are one of 519 00:26:35,655 --> 00:26:41,255 Speaker 3: the most amazingly brilliant callers that rings exactly at the 520 00:26:41,375 --> 00:26:42,175 Speaker 3: right time. 521 00:26:45,015 --> 00:26:45,255 Speaker 4: True. 522 00:26:45,375 --> 00:26:48,575 Speaker 3: I have last night last night till about midnight, I 523 00:26:48,615 --> 00:26:51,215 Speaker 3: wrote my next script for Jack Tame that I do 524 00:26:51,295 --> 00:26:56,015 Speaker 3: on Saturday mornings, right, and the topic is Tafrina deformance, 525 00:26:56,215 --> 00:27:00,535 Speaker 3: which is the fungal name of the bugger that causes 526 00:27:00,695 --> 00:27:05,775 Speaker 3: leaf curl. And the reason is I always complain when 527 00:27:05,815 --> 00:27:08,615 Speaker 3: callers call in the middle of spring and summer saying 528 00:27:08,615 --> 00:27:12,095 Speaker 3: I've got leaf girl, You're six months too late now 529 00:27:12,295 --> 00:27:16,175 Speaker 3: is the time to spray while the leaves are falling off, 530 00:27:16,495 --> 00:27:20,975 Speaker 3: to spray your whole tree with copper or copper and sulfur. 531 00:27:21,015 --> 00:27:23,975 Speaker 3: But in this case copper would be going. Well, any copper, 532 00:27:23,975 --> 00:27:26,655 Speaker 3: spray all over that thing. And you do it a 533 00:27:26,655 --> 00:27:30,255 Speaker 3: week later on again, and you could do it after 534 00:27:30,335 --> 00:27:33,055 Speaker 3: that again. And what you're doing is here you're killing 535 00:27:33,095 --> 00:27:38,775 Speaker 3: the spores that attack your trees and the leaves in springtime. 536 00:27:39,455 --> 00:27:42,535 Speaker 3: Now is the time to get those buggers out. It 537 00:27:43,135 --> 00:27:45,175 Speaker 3: is literally to the week almost. 538 00:27:47,855 --> 00:27:50,215 Speaker 4: Ye, that makes sense. So you think the trill would 539 00:27:50,215 --> 00:27:51,855 Speaker 4: cover absolutely? 540 00:27:52,855 --> 00:27:57,415 Speaker 2: Oh good news. I wasn't expecting that. I was thinking, look, 541 00:27:57,415 --> 00:27:59,895 Speaker 2: you just got to accept that some things don't last. 542 00:27:59,975 --> 00:28:02,535 Speaker 2: River and arending thing out with the chains. 543 00:28:02,375 --> 00:28:06,215 Speaker 3: Or but yeah, get no, get here we go. Spray 544 00:28:06,335 --> 00:28:12,335 Speaker 3: grim is brought to you by still Shot. But honestly, 545 00:28:12,815 --> 00:28:16,175 Speaker 3: you got it. It's important to get that stuff under control. Now, 546 00:28:16,495 --> 00:28:18,495 Speaker 3: can you do it again? So if you listen this 547 00:28:18,695 --> 00:28:20,615 Speaker 3: next week and yeah, go on. 548 00:28:21,695 --> 00:28:24,775 Speaker 4: So you can soak the ground round about too, because 549 00:28:24,815 --> 00:28:26,895 Speaker 4: imagine that spores are in the ground as well. 550 00:28:27,055 --> 00:28:29,495 Speaker 3: No they're not, No, they're not. They're they're on the 551 00:28:29,655 --> 00:28:31,775 Speaker 3: on the leaves and on the on the twigs and 552 00:28:31,775 --> 00:28:33,855 Speaker 3: all that sort of stuff, not in the ground at all. 553 00:28:34,295 --> 00:28:36,775 Speaker 3: But the cool thing is that I've written everything that 554 00:28:36,935 --> 00:28:38,775 Speaker 3: is to know about what I told you about in 555 00:28:38,815 --> 00:28:41,935 Speaker 3: a one a four page and that's going to go 556 00:28:41,975 --> 00:28:44,575 Speaker 3: on the news dogs that'd B website next week, next coming. 557 00:28:44,655 --> 00:28:47,855 Speaker 2: So right, you can find that easily.
