I ended up getting about 20 5 gallon buckets full of peaches this year for my
chickens, it was all the
fruit that fell off a tree, so now I have a lot of peach seeds laying in my front
yard. I am wondering if I can take those seeds and plant them, I understand they might not be good tasting peaches but considering we don't have many
trees in the surrounding 5 miles I figured it may just be good to grow anything at all. Next problem is we have bad ground and we only get 10"-13" of rain per year, so it's very dry as well. I was thinking if I was going to plant them that I could dig a trench, fill the bottom of it with small branches and
wood cuttings from my
firewood supply and then put some dirt over the branches and plant the
seed on that. Then
mulch or
straw or something over the bare earth, I could
water with the hose once a week or so throughout spring summer and fall as a way to keep them watered but would this be enough? Would this even be a good idea? Anyone have any thoughts on this? Thanks!
