How are the fruit trees doing now?
Maybe an update video on growing progress and what to expect after a couple seasons?

john, i have no experience but last year a chesnut from the supermarket started to germinate so i planted it into a small pot. When it had 2 leaves i bought a big tree pot, went to home depot to get soil but bought nothing instead i collected rich forest ground (litterally) to put into the big pot and transplanted the plant. The tree grew really quick in the big pot, after 3 month it was 5 feet tall and that was indoor ! When it became taller than the window it stopped getting light at the top and completely stopped growing, the bud at the top even dried and fell off. Since then it has not grown but the stem is woody and about as thick as a little finger.
The top leaves have curled into spirals. I don't know what that means . The soil is too compact it has nothing in it to keep moisture. One time i overwatered but it recovered and i learned from that mistake. I want to plant the tree outside now. It has some leaves bigger than a hand.

I want to order a supreme dwarf reliance peach tree, it is about 4 foot tall. what size container should I put it in and what kind of soil and fertilizer? I live in zone 6B.

Yeah John...you mentioned a fungus base compost. I live about 10 miles from Monterrey Mushrooms east coast plant here in Eustis FL this is what I used for my calamondin citrus tree. Good or not?

what state do you live in? I live in Utah, should I put bare root trees in the fall just before the snow? or should I put them out in the late winter just before the spring, when the snow melts?
