mate :) thank you for that tip. I will do that from now on, but I can't get seaweed solution here. Could I use anything else? I can get guano, worm castings instead. I was also thinking about building basic frames and making wind blockers. I don't want to tempt wind burn, but it means the trunk will be vertical and not tilted.

Video of me was weird but I just had @world-travel-pro (he does a sweet travel blog here) come visit me, the town and see this project first hand. I had just finished planting the trees you see at the end of this video and he comes out filming. I couldn't just like say "no chance", I understand the value of video on Steemit, just being shy and awkward about it. But I know in a few more videos, it gets easier and more defined.

The aim is basically getting this 'vote a tree' post going and expanding the reforestation initiative. Would be cool to plant hundreds of thousands of trees. Plenty open land to do so here and replace depleted resources. All with an upvote, brilliant isn't it and got to love the opportunities/positives coming from Steem.
