Hello Mike and everyone,
I live outside of Austin, TX (Liberty Hill) and have serious water restrictions. At this time the powers that be allow outside watering only once a week. There is an exception only for trees on bubblers and herbs and vegetables.
I am thinking of joining the backyard Grower’s Group to get info on growing a number of small trees to sell. Fall is an excellent time to plant here in Central Texas.
I have very limited funds to do this but do have some infrastructure in place. Beds in the ground with ammended soil and raised beds. i have .365 acres but would be using less than 1/2 of that eventually to plant and much less to start as a test. I am concerned with the profit margin of selling small trees after shipping materials and costs, continued soil amendments, drip lines, and extraneous costs unknown. as well as more water and perhaps shade cloth. We are lucky here this summer with heat but can’t count on that in future for sure! I will also neeed to pay sales tax and buy an agricultural license before I sell…$100. here.
I am hoping to net at least $3,000. a year (more would be grand) after I have started to sell within a year of planting this fall. I have a additional full time job but limited funds. I can buy a limited amount of help for heavy work, but will be doing the tending and hopefully the shipping myself.
I am hoping the work will not be too strenuous for me and that the business management will not be too time consuming. I have just recovered from Covid sufficiently to return to work. I can be on my feet and working for at least 8-10 hours a day on most days. The work for the trees would, of course, be in addition to those hours and on the weekends.
I do love to garden and have been interested in this group for years. But just loving to garden does not a successful business venture make LOL.
I would love honest input from growers and Mike as to whether my idea sounds doable or like a disaster waiting to happen. The impediments of limited water, Central TX heat, limited physical strength and endurance, and limited time and money may not make this a viable business side venture for me. I would rather know that at the outset.
As much as I would love to do this, I don’t want to start something that does not look promising from the start to folks who have made a success of it. On the other hand, there is no such thing as a sure thing.
Thanks in advance for your input.. Please excuse any typos.
Cecilia 🙂
Cecila,
You’re right, there is no such thing as a sure thing. But I don’t think your expectations are that grand and doable. Your plans on how to go about it might change as you go along. If grow things in a bed before shipping they need a lot less water than plants in pots. I can’t promise anything but if you are serious you should at least join for 30 days and bring this up with the other members. They really don’t see posts here, all of their communication is within the group. I think there will always be a demand for high quality small trees. https://secure.backyardgrowers.com/business-center

Okay!
Hi Mike. I hope this message finds you happy and well.. I was having trouble posting this on the site so I hope it’s in the right place I . Bought a sunset red maple last week from Home Depot and it already looks sickly. The leaves are brown, especially at the edges and there’s brown dots on them.. The leaves are also wilted even though it has enough water ….,so that’s not the issue. I’ve had it one week so far. I live in toms River New Jersey and we have Sandy wet soil. How can I bring him back to life? Thank you for your time
Patti,
Sound to me like it dried out at some point, or maybe the roots were disturbed a tad too much during planting. As long as your soil drains well and it is not planted too deep just keep it watered as needed. Don’t expect too much to happen too fast. But as long as the stems remain healthy it should be fine come spring. Maybe have a conversation about it with Home Depot just so they know and see what they say.
This is how you test to see if a plant, or a branch on a plant has died. Just scratch the bark of your plants with your finger nail. If the tissue below the bark is green and firm your plants are fine. If the tissue is brown and mushy that part of the plant is dead.
Even if it were planted too deep that wouldn’t have any effect on it in a weeks time. The crispy edges are a sure sign that it probably dried out at some point. Maybe even before you bought it.
How do I post a pic for you to see
