My grandfather used to put the branches he pruned off the fruit trees in water for three days. Then he would submerge them into an aloe leaf and smuther the goo all over it. Afterwards he would plant them in a pot until it had roots. Free trees every year

Listen, you can't do this to me. My husband and I just moved into a new home with quite a bit of land, and I swore to him that we'd leave the outside to next year. Then, I planted 2 fig trees, in ornamental pots, bc the house should look good right? Now though I want a whole damn orchard. The slippery slope is real.

It is so awesome to see Kevin gifting his employee an orchard. That's the kind of boss for me!

Would be Epic to see a follow up in about a years time to see how well everything is going, and if anything should have been changed. Especially around time when to prune the various branches into the proper shape.

Had a neighbor who would trick his peach tree into thinking it had more chill hours by putting bags of ice near the trunk. The melting ice on the roots caused faked enough chill hours to cause the tree to lose the last of its leaves.

I really enjoyed the style of this video! It was perfect with Kris asking all the questions and Kevin and Jacques answering in a conversational style while they worked. It’s so helpful to see a makeover start to finish with all the decisions explained in real time. This is probably my favorite Epic video ❤❤
