Hi @October1 to your question regarding broadfork, he’d put manure on the ground at Fall then the next spring he’d use his broadfork and the natural spaces on the tool are where the holes are. My broadfork has tines about 4-6" apart? I’d have to go measure. So he steps on it and presses it all the way to the end of the fork tines and probably swishes some loose soil back into the holes if it’s available and he would pinch the soil together at the top of the hole(s) whereas a seed will be direct sown after frost. So, to keep your seeds that Cliff sent ready and since there’s nothing to do but put them in your refrigerator (not freezer ever) and plant to pots or direct sow in place where you want a tree.
@fullforkfarm No I can’t unfortunately, I’m sorry. I can start you at a place on a thread that is fascinating that has taken up weeks and weeks of my time, recently; since, I’m going into the breeding persimmons.
I had to have this guy here explain to me what genes are and chromosomes (just a weeks ago.) I didn’t even know basically biology.
