Novice saying thank you!!

Thank you for everyone's input on this forum.

This year the figs are a standout, I have never eaten a fresh fig before and the 3 small bushes I put in last summer are prolific. I also had 2 Asian pears from trees that are 2 years old. Couple of apples and plums but the deer got to them. Everything else coming along and I will begin to spray according to the schedule.

Thank you all again!

Give yourself some credit, you were smart enough to find this place! :). Congrats. I'm finding growing stuff super rewarding and very satisfying. Even when you fail, as you are that much more informed and educated from the experience.
