Live and learn Twisty... It's nice to have a good local source of water, but I've become more dependent on moisture retaining ammendments over the years. These days its a first hike with a backpack full of pre-measured ammendments in paper lunch bags and a small trowel. I dig a small pilot hole, make sure the soil is decent, place a bag in it and mark it on my GPS. In May I'll hike back in with some clones, another round of ammendments and a collapsilble shovel. At this point, if it looks as though no one has been snooping about, I just dig and turn a proper planting hole ammend the soil again and place a clone. I prefer to do single plants spread out, less chance of complete loss...
See you in October girls.
