Once they get planted, they're gonna need a LOT of water in our summers. But they do better in our summers than palm trees do in our winters. :cool:

Do you believe in fate……. The older I get the more I wonder….

My buddy and I road the COBDR last year and it ends up in Wyoming. Then we turned around and headed home. On the south side of Colorado just before we head east back to Texas there was a beautiful gravel road heading up into the mountains. I told my buddy let’s ride this road up the mountain just a little bit. After 3000 miles and many-many days off road he was not super excited about another dirt road. LOL.
I turned off the road anyway and started riding up the road / mountain a bit. After about two miles I stopped to look and take a picture and go the bathroom. As I got off my bike there was a super fresh pine cone at my feet. I’ve never seen this before but it was at the tip of my toes. No other pine cones in site (I looked). I did all my stuff and decided to pick up the pine cone.
I came home and learned about it. I fallowed the “rules” and gave it a home-brew- shot in the dark try to grow a beautiful pine tree.
I pulled 81 seeds from the cone and I planted them. (This was a 4-5 month process to this point). The internet basically tells you it’s fun to mess and “try”, but evidently the average person can’t get them to grow. So I’ve read. Out of 81 seeds I have 43 trees that have popped up and growing. Growing GREAT !
After more homework I believe I have Ponderosa Pine. They can grow up to 250 feet tall and are know to have trunks 27’ in diameter. They are said to grow fast. So far these little suckers are growing fast.

I guess now I have 43 little “kids”…… LOL

That looks like a Cannibis Plant.

Greetings from the banana forests of Minnesota!

Does this mean you are putting studded tires on your bike?

Crazy but not nuts. Saw a Honda Grom out on the road a few days ago. That's nuts. I have a fatbike for the snow. As you know it's a long wait til spring. Hard to believe global warming with the polar vortex rearing its frigid head. Then the heat in the Summer and forest fires the world experiences proves the warming trend. Stay warm out there.

Y'all go from mowing to blowing. The bad thing about our 12mo riding season, is our 12mo mowing season.
