Had a bit of fun in the muck with my B3200 this past weekend. No pictures because it was raining and my hand were covered with mud. I purchase around 100 seedlings from my county extension service this past weekend. After using a shovel to dig a trench for the extensive white pine roots, I ended up getting the Kubota out of the garage. The bucket with the tooth bar made easy work of the damp soil and popped me the perfect length trench for planting seedlings. Use the bucket on either side of the tree to pull the dirt back in and use my foot around the seedling. I have about 20 of the 100 remaining to go this evening after work. Heavy downpours and lightening made me stop Sunday.

Nice mix of plants though, I was able to get some white spruce, sugar maple, white oak, buckeyes, white pine, white and pink dogwoods and some butterfly bushes.

How many will take? Not sure but at less than 1.00 a tree and they are all around 24" tall, I'll take that gamble.

Nice would like to see some pictures too. I have 100 Norway spruce coming this weekend to plant and a couple more fruit trees. Same thing only the fruit trees are more expensive. Been think about how to plant the spruce trees should be ok with all the rain and snow we’ve had.
