Today didn’t go to plan, guard broke on the w**d whacker, so switched to tree releasing and then came back and put it stakes and sprayed the areas where the new plants will go.

The grass on this part is shoulder high in places and is a thick knotted mass at the base around 300-400mm thick. Even the w**d whacker struggles to cut through it. The plan is to plant 200 trees 🌲 in here in June. Maintenance work was done on trees 🌳 planted in September 2022 that had started to fall over. Staked and tied up to prevent wind damage.
