  1. Looks like your plum tree has bacterial canker. We had a plum tree with canker that still produced very well. That is, until it got brown rot. We were renting at the time, and moved right after that, but the tree was at least 15 feet tall and gave us a lot of fruit.

    Before you pull it, read this. https://www.planetnatural.com/pest-problem-solver/plant-disease/bacterial-canker/ I just picked this article quickly but there is a lot of info out there about this disease and how to treat it. Very sorry to hear about your trees.

    Also, the twisted roots can happen when you backfill the planting hole with compost instead of native soil. The tree becomes used to that soil and, instead of sending out roots deeply, the roots circle around and stay in the composted hole. Hate seeing you have to remove trees, but sometimes it's the best way.

  2. I get 3 years growth in a year on my fruit tree's, they came bare rooted and were planted in 15 inch pots for 2 years before I planted them in the ground!
    The reason for the fast growth is fresh urine once or twice a week, I stop feeding a month before picking the fruit!

  3. Awesome video James, thanks for sharing. As sorry as you must be to lose the tree, it makes sense that it's best to know when to cut your losses. Throwing more good time/money toward fixing this problem is probably not as good as just planting something else that will grow really well.

  4. Hi James, Push and encourage me you did! 🙂 After seeing this video I got searching for my bare root trees. Found a limited supply for non commercial growers ( I am in Canada) and many trees that sold out by now. I sat searching all night and half of today (from the moment I finished watching this video) determined to get my trees ordered; what I wanted, from reputable nurseries that give good service. It seems like I found one and it is done, yay! They will ship to me on April 23rd. It wasn't easy. It was even confusing. Having to make up my mind and take courage to trust my choices and the whole process. To forget about buying a mature tree in a pot for the same price as I get a stick in the mail. Some are going to be only 3 feet tall! Never ordered bare root trees before. I am following your every video. Thank you!

  5. Thank you James. This being my first year with fruit trees I did my homework and wennt with bare roots from an established grower with a pristene rep. Been a bit worried about these very cold nocs though. I've covered my lemon and tangerine trees..they are first yearlings..nought looking great but we'll see in the spring how they do. Thank you for all you do..

  6. My friends those big roots are not for pulling water and nutrition out of the ground they are for supportting the three. The small roots are for pulling water from the ground

  7. CAN I COME GET THOSE TWO TREES YOU DUG UP? I live in Middletown but I'm in your area all the time. I plant fruit trees all over my neighborhood and have plenty of experience in rehabbing root bound fruit trees 🙂 lmk

  8. where do you source your trees these days? I am looking forward to growing cherries peaches apples and berries but like you said it is crucial to start with proper plants that aren't root bound and the big box stores seem to be stuck in the stone ages with their practices.

  9. Hey James!! I was just going thru rewatching all your videos from the start and I saw that triple grafted apple tree and I wondered to myself what ever happened to it. So I'm happy you showed us in this video! Thank you!
