Got home from work last night to find 5 big boxes of green giants in front of my garage. Opened them up and there's 2 of them in each box. They have a nice smell to it.
From 5:30pm to 8:15pm, I planted 9 green giants and removed three 7' foot tall yews to relocate.
Digged a hole at least 3x bigger than the 3qt pots the green giants came with, flood the hole with water and added the dirt til the tree sits slighty above ground level....repeat 8 times.
My uncle brought over a crappy craftsman 18" chainsaw and 2 worn chains, used them to cut a square box around the yew trees and plucked them out with ease
It was getting dark by 6:45pm so I took out the 1,000 watts work light stand and turned it on.
The neighbors were lookign at me when I fired up the chainsaw.
With the bright lights aimed at their house, they can't see much other than hearing a chainsaw revving at 7pm
After all the yews were removed, I watered the green gaints.
At 8:30pm I mixed the liquid fence and put it in a pressurized sprayer, good god, the small is aweful! Smells like bad vomit!
Sprayed all the green gaints, the hedges and a few of the yews.
When I was leaving for work 4:30am today, I could smell the liquid fence from my side door which is about 20-30 ft to the backyard. Looked at them and the backyard with my flashlight and no evidence of deers around or in the backyard. So far so good.
Did everything by myself...kind of exhausted after I was done cleaning up...
Here's a pic of the newly planted trees (500 watts only on as it was cleanup time, can't see much):
