John and I went over to Smart Plants in nearby Te Kuiti a few days ago and picked up a trailer load of potting soil and a stash of PB8 black plastic sacks. My mission now is to repot the native trees John has purchased to date for his extended bush reserve at Struan Farm, at least those I haven't already done. This will give them sufficient room to grow on for the next year (or two if needed).
Above is my mobile potting station. We've re-purposed a macrocarpa table recycled from Maurie's old workshop, which lucky for me had wheels. This gets positioned near the mountain of potting soil, with the plants transported back and forth by barrow. After each use I clean the table and roll it into the garage to keep it in good condition.
Pretty slick operation, eh?
