June 18, 2017: Avocado Experiments, Juniper and Maple Updates

June 18, 2017

This is my first avocado pit, which sprouted in January or February, I think (the major part of why I'm trying to keep this blog, as a way to track the tree-lings progresses).



Per a forum that I can't find now, I soaked a scissors in a 4-5 parts water to 1 part bleach solution and pared down the leaves.




I also cut the new shoots coming up in order to see how the tree reacts.




These maples were "taken out of the wild" on May 17th, the same day I removed the junipers from the yard (my parent's yard).













The happiest juniper was the one protected by the "lee of the stone [wall]," i.e., the one least mown over.
