Toxic behavior - one of the common, yet unfortunate side effects of building a community around
a popular online game.
The latest Developer Update from Blizzard didn't focus on the release of a new hero,
new skins, nor even a new map; rather, Jeff Kaplan took this opportunity to publicly address
the rising prevalence of toxicity in Overwatch matches and, subsequently, what Blizzard plans
to do about it.
Although working towards a solution is certainly great, some might wonder why the gamespace
is facing such struggles in the first place.
As almost any online gamer will tell you, toxic behaviour is not at all unique to the
Overwatch community.
Games that either pit players against one another or even demand cooperation among teammates
have the potential to incite negative interactions; In other words, multiplayer games.
The anonymity bi-product of online matchmaking with strangers dehumanizes players and minimizes
their inhibitions as well.
As a result, most popular esports today have had to deal with toxicity in their games'
communities at some point in time, and Overwatch is clearly no exception.
There are many examples of prior attempts to punish or reform poor-mannered players
in other games, such as League of Legends and Dota 2.
As for the former, Riot Games has been adapting and adjusting their system over the course
of years, and yet the community still upholds a far-from-enviable reputation.
That being said, substantial improvements have certainly been made and are continuing
on an upward trend season after season.
It cannot be denied that any action is better than none at all, and in that regard, Blizzard
truly believes its heavy allocation of workforce and resources to solving this problem (or
at least making a dent) deserves priority over any other new content or updates.
Playing Overwatch is a different experience for everyone, to some extent.
Not all players flame their teammates, but not every player interprets dialogue in the
same way either.
One criticism or insult typed in the heat of the moment can fly under the radar or,
conversely, ruin someone's day.
It is definitely difficult to argue that one minor slip-up should end an individual's
Overwatch career via banned account, but something absolutely needs to be done about those players
who do not acknowledge the reality of the human being behind each and every in-game
hero.
In this vein, Jeff Kaplan made some truly poignant remarks about the process of removing
toxicity from the gamespace, pointing out that a lot of the responsibility is on the
community.
While some would argue it is entirely the community's responsibility, Kaplan's suggestion
to type something positive in place of a negative comment (or simply saying nothing, at the
very least) can go a long way.
If players in Overwatch, or any online community for that matter, want to see an improvement
in the environment and even the development of the game itself, it begins with them.
Lest anyone forget, games are made for having fun -- and that extends to the communities
who enjoy them.
This has been Slash2 with your Overwatch News.

Your Latest Trick | Mark Knopfler Songbook | Chords | Lesson 30 - Duration: 13:58.
OK, the next stop in our
"non-guitar songs from the mid-80s" parade
is Your Latest Trick.
It's fun to play guitar songs,
but I constantly get a buzz from all sorts
of arrangements and lead instruments.
I'll do more guitar songs soon.
And more recent songs, too.
But this song is really fun to play on a guitar,
and as one of Mark's most recognisable
tunes ever, if not the most,
you should definitely try it yourself.
A lot of chords here as you'd imagine.
The song starts with C#m.
To A, then B to B/A, G#m7, Amaj7.
To F#, F#/A#, B, B/A again, G#7, F#m, G#7.
Or Am6, G#7.
Technically it's a beast
by the name of F#m9b5, but I can't find any
proper way to use it on one guitar so
I just replace it with an F#m or Am6.
But if you want a proper name for it, it's F#m9b5.
You see, to play songs like that you really
need to know your neck at least on the
bottom two strings, because root notes
go all over the place and it's easy to
get lost in all these slash,
sharp and flat symbols.
The intro slowly.
The verse is E, F#m, B, C#m, B/D#, C#/F, F#m.
Basically, It all goes up to F#m from B.
To jazzy D9.
Another option is a chord
from Baloney Again,
namely D9#11 [10, x, 10, 9, 9, x].
Or D13#11.
This is the most accurate name for it—D13#11.
You see, I can't even play it, so this is all the
keyboard tricks and for our limited instrument
let's just use the regular D9.
Another cool grip
which Mark uses all the time is this:
[10, x, 10, 9, 7, x].
It's like D9 with the 3rd on top.
The verse slowly.
And again, the rhythm pattern with an
accent on 2 AND can be used:
1 and 2 AND 3 and 4 and.
Although many patterns will do, including this
bossa nova-ish rhythm.
But a simple strumming I love, too.
So the end result is a
combination of these basic rhythms.
By the way, this song is the only Dire Straits
song with arrangement, suggested by the
band's manager Ed Bicknell, who can play
drums as well.
He suggested this cool
bossa rhythm missing one beat.
If the regular bossa goes something like…
In this song it skips the third strong beat
and sounds very original and unique.
You can recognise the tune literally
just by the rhythm alone.
The chorus starts on A. Then B to B/A again.
To B or not to B. And here's the change — E/G#.
To Aadd9, A, E/B and it ends almost like a verse:
E, F#m, B, C#m, B/D# and switch to the saxophone.
Technically it goes through the G#7 chord,
but it gets played rarely.
What gets played every time is this chord
before the end solo.
The chord is the Hendrix chord
again, as in the song Private Dancer.
G#7#9 [x, 11, 10, 11, 12, x].
This chord lasts for a fraction of a second,
but really sets up a mood for a tasty jazz solo.
The chorus slowly.
Playing the solo over Your Latest Trick
is pretty demanding and unless you're
jazz pro, who I'm not, or an advanced
blues guitar player, who I'm not, better to leave
it for somebody who can actually play.
With that said, there was a couple of instances
when a guitar was used for solos and even
by Mark himself.
He tried to get around
the changes with some Pentatonic licks, take a listen.
Another one is when Robbie McIntosh did it
properly on a charity show "MK & Friends" in 2002.
So, as a huge hit this song is a must play for fans,
and as a romantic piece of music it can be
used in all sorts of way.
For instance, I played
this song for my girlfriend on our very first date
a couple of years ago, and we're still together
if you ask me.
Stay romantic, play guitar and keep Knopflering.
And thanks for watching!

How to Answer Your Calling – 3 Ways to Remember Why Your Soul Ch - Duration: 17:32.
How to Answer Your Calling � 3 Ways to Remember Why Your Soul Chose This Life
�You came here with something to do.
You are part of a universal consciousness, and there are no accidents in it.
In your true essence � not the false self, not the ego part of you, but in the true essence
of who you are � you are infinite and you have something very profound to accomplish
while you�re here.
Otherwise you wouldn�t be here.
Find it.
Pay attention to it.
Listen to the callings.
See the clues, the cues.
See the alignments, whatever they might be, no matter how absurd or bizarre they might
seem to everyone around you� if you have a calling inside that says there�s also
something else, don�t ignore that.
Don�t die with your music still in you.
Don�t die with your purpose unfulfilled.
Don�t die feeling as if your life has been wrong.
Don�t let that happen to you.� ~ Wayne Dyer
You Are On a Mission.
Prior to birth, just like an artist who is selecting which paints will go onto the blank
canvas, our souls choose a set of colors to work with which determine our parents, ethnicity,
country of birth, etc.
We also choose a number of possible paths that would allow us to experience certain
aspects of our being.
For instance, if courage is one of those aspects of ourselves we wish to experience, we would
collaborate with other souls in this physical realm so circumstances would arise in our
lives where we are required to invoke courage within us.
Likewise, we choose a certain mission, or a calling that would allow us to maximize
our full potentials on this live stage called earth.
In order to fully step into our calling with power and consciousness, we must first elect
to forget what it is at birth so we may, after years and decades, and for some, lifetimes
of soul searching, arrive at a point in our lives where we must make a choice to remember
who we truly are and deliberately call forth what gives us highest joy.
Personally, I see the long years of painful searching as nothing more than a rite of passage
with intended experiences and divinely placed circumstances that fully prepares us to be
who we came here to be.
The second we reunite with our soul�s calling, the universe registers our seriousness and
we come to the realization that nothing can and will stand in our way.
At that moment, all fears and obstacles begin fading as the path unfolds in front of us.
At that moment, we will move mountains and cross oceans just so that we can become one
with our highest intention and commit to our divine mission.
At that moment, our body, mind and soul become aligned with one single purpose � to experience
ourselves as our own grandest creation in this life.
Funny enough, once we remember our mission, we often realize the mission has very little
to do with us and everything to do with everyone else.
It is a mission that allows us to serve humanity and to light the paths for others through
servicing, healing, inspiring, teaching and empowering.
It is no coincidence that for many, in order to remember that mission, we must first experience
the pains and turmoil in life so we may later not only decide to transcend what limits us,
but also use our life journey as a tool to inspire and encourage others to do the same.
Some of the most influential teachers from Hay House such as Louise Hay, Anita Moorjani
and the late Wayne Dyer are but a few who had journeyed to the darkness and back so
they may light the way for others.
Know that wherever you are in life is exactly where you need to be.
You are not bound to any fate and you have the power to change and create anything in
life.
It is my hope that by sharing the following 3 reminders, which are embedded in your soul
blueprint, you will begin manifesting your calling.
1.
Identify Your Highest Joy
As beings of energy, we ourselves are literally the creation tools we are born with and our
feeling is the direct line of communication with our soul, or the higher self.
At any time when our thoughts, words and actions are aligned with the soul�s vision, we know
it immediately by the way we feel which is usually identified as harmony, inner-peace,
joy, gratitude and love.
Whenever we feel good, our vibration is instantly higher which easily leads to inspired action;
and by committing ourselves to inspired action, it leads to more joy which expands the breeding
ground of inspired action.
The more we can get in touch with the �feel good� component within ourselves and listen
to it, the easier it will be for us to define our mission in life.
For the longest time, I had not a clue what my calling was and I spent the majority of
my time complaining and wishing I could do something else with my life while holding
onto the belief that a job and a passion are mutually exclusive.
I did have many passions and since I felt miserable with my job, I indulged myself with
activities I enjoyed whenever I had free time.
Being a spiritual seeker since birth, one of my passions was alternative healing.
For many years, I heard and read about Reiki and there was always that little voice in
the back of my head whispering, �Take a Reiki class.� Like many, I brushed aside
the little voice with as many excuses as I could find but eventually, the voice became
so persistent that I decided to just go for it.
As someone who was also obsessed with doing the due diligence for everything I stepped
into, I spent hours researching for an experienced teacher.
I already signed up for a course elsewhere when the name of my first Reiki teacher popped
up in my search, and for reasons unknown to me at the time, I made a last minute decision
to go with this class.
During the two days of training, I met someone whom I became friends with.
Fast forward to years later, we currently share an office space doing healing work in
Midtown Manhattan.
Within the same year after the initial training the same friend introduced me to another Reiki
teacher who is the very reason why I eventually became a recovery and wellness coach as well
as Reiki master.
During those years, every time when I was guided by inspiration, life rewarded me with
more people, events and circumstances that helped me remember my true essence and carry
out my mission.
Do not despair if you do not yet remember what you came here to be.
Your only duty in this life is to follow your highest joy.
Believe me, it is much more than just a clich� line that we use as a bumper sticker.
Once we follow the first inspired idea, we are sending out the energy with the intention
of �I am my highest joy at this given moment� into the universe which slowly intensifies
and magnifies as we become more accustomed to singing our heart�s song.
What has started as a seed is given more opportunities to grow and flourish every time when we follow
our highest feelings because the energy behind that intention is literally snowballing and
creating more and more movement in the quantum field in bringing us what make us happy.
What inspires you?
What makes your heart sing?
What�s that one thing you�ve been wanting to do but have been putting off forever?
It�s time.
�Respond to every call that ignites your spirit.� ~ Rumi
2.
Allow Your Being to Guide Your Doing
One of the most frustrating things we do to ourselves is we get stuck envisioning the
million tasks we must do to accomplish anything, that can also be the very thing that keeps
us from moving forward.
Answering our calling is very much a process like everything else.
The end result may look nothing like what we started off with or what we planned, and
that is completely okay.
Sometimes what we think we want only serves as a stepping stone that leads us closer to
fulfilling our mission.
The universe does not care about what we do that makes us radiate with joy, it can be
taking a Reiki class or a baking class, going on that spontaneous vacation or calling an
old friend we haven�t seen for years.
The universe only cares about the vibrational signature we give off when we are being that
joy.
By giving ourselves into inspired action, we may be meeting a teacher for life who becomes
our source of inspiration, or be welcoming an opportunity that otherwise would not be
there had we not chosen to follow our heart and arrive at that exact location and time.
The only decision we have to make on a daily basis is to start following whichever things
that give us whatever amount of joy out of all the available daily activities in front
of us rather than coming up with a huge plan of action to get ourselves from point A to
B because �it is the right thing to do� or �everything else does it.�
If your only daily activities are comprised of chores such as house cleaning, meeting
deadlines and cooking for a family of six, then invite yourself to do some (or all) of
those things with as much joy and presence as you can, and to squeeze in a couple of
little activities that bring you peace and make you come alive.
They can be as simple as having quiet time to read for 15 minutes or working on that
hobby when everyone goes to sleep.
You just never know what may come out of them!
Do not ever underestimate the power behind these little activities as they are what make
the energy accumulate.
Remember, it is always about being the �I am my highest joy at this given moment�
energy rather than flooding ourselves with tasks and running around aimlessly for the
simple reason that we cannot find our calling outside of ourselves, but we can remember
or create it within us.
The more we can allow that energy to flow to us and from us, the more the universe can
bring us everything that resonates on the same energy level to help us remember and
create our destinies.
Is the path of committing ourselves to remembering, and eventually embodying our calling always
peachy?
The answer is no.
It is a journey that is made of a thousand little steps of learning and choosing.
Along the way of building my healing practice, I was constantly discouraged by my lack of
knowledge and tools to run a business as well as overwhelmed by the millions of tasks I
was constantly bombarded with.
I invested a great deal of energy on training courses from learning how to write my about
page to polishing up the content of my website so I can reach a larger audience.
No matter how much I tried to tweak my writing while working with business coaches and alike,
I was unable to meet their standards of using �simple and client friendly� language
where I could explain what I do in a couple of sentences to an eight-year old.
One day, exactly one year from the day I resigned from my last job, it finally hit me.
While I will always remain grateful of the knowledge and support I have taken away from
the courses, my writing reflects my true essence, and who I am at the core is someone who thinks,
feels and speaks like the spiritual geek that I am proud to be.
By giving myself endless tasks of to-do�s that do not align with my inspired actions,
I am neglecting who I came here to be � someone who helps others heal, awaken and create through
spiritual writing, healing and coaching.
In fact, this article was entirely inspired by hours of staring at weeks worth of unfinished
homework documents from my latest course with the sudden realization that the content of
my website may never appeal to everyone, and that is perfectly okay.
I was faced with two choices, to continue doing the daunting task of sounding like someone
I am not, or being immersed in the joy of writing.
The moment I chose the latter, a stream of inspiration poured in and gave birth to these
words.
At the end of the day, it isn�t about what we do, how we do it, what our titles are,
how polished our website looks, how many credentials are displayed in our bios and how many award-winning
books we�ve published.
It is about whether we can allow ourselves to step into who we truly are, and boldly
and lovingly declare our authenticity to the world.
No vibration in the universe is more powerful than our energy when it becomes an extension
of our divine calling.
What are some things on your daily to-do list?
Which ones of those give you any amount of joy?
How can you insert more �feel good� activities into your life?
How can you replace the aimless �to-do�s� with more inspired action?
3.
Your Calling is Your Own Creation
Our souls have chosen a certain mission prior to birth, but the moment we become fully conscious
of who we are and awaken to the creator within, we are no longer bound to any predetermined
paths we laid out for ourselves before coming into this physical body.
The more we are aware of our true essence and our connection with the divine source,
the more empowered we become and the more we can claim the gift of free will which ultimately
allows us to exercise our birthright as the conscious creator to Be, Do, and Have anything
our soul desires.
To achieve that, we must first free ourselves from everything that limits us.
Limitations can take the form of fear such as fear of uncertainty/change, fear of lack,
or even fear of success.
Limitations can also manifest as endless excuses ranging from �I have a full time job with
no time or money� to �I�m too old to do this.� In addition, limitations show
up as disempowering beliefs including, �There isn�t enough for everyone� or �I am
not special enough.�
There is no one way to initiate that journey of liberation, there is only what works for
you.
Personally, I�ve found spiritual practices such as energy healing, Kundalini yoga, meditation,
working with a spiritual coach, being in nature, journaling and reading inspirational books
are all great ways to awaken.
I used to be the queen of �what-if�s.� �What if I failed?�� �What if I lost
it all?�� �What if I became a laughingstock?�� One day, I grew sick of my negative what-if�s
and decided to do a 180.
�What if I succeeded?�� �What if I learned something from this?�� �What
if I could help others?�� I made a point to do this every day for months and it made
a remarkable difference in my ability to exercise my free will.
Prior to tapping into our true creator role, many of us feel like powerless victims who
take whatever life throws at us.
We may be passionate about answering our calling as an artist but end up working at a bank
because we are afraid we won�t make ends meet.
We feel limited, even enslaved by the conditions in our lives.
We submit ourselves to our so-called fate and tell stories of how we aren�t fortunate
enough to be one of those who seem to have it all.
When we awaken, we become aware that we are who we say we are, and what we create as well
as how we wish to experience everything in life depends on one thing and one thing only
� our choice.
Your calling is something you soul chose in the realm of the formless before it took on
a body, and you can choose again at any time in this life because the truth is, your soul
remains who you truly are while your body and mind are only additional tools for you
to carry out your mission so you may experience your own creations physically in this 3D time
and space dimension.
That power of choice has never left you.
Once you decide, allow the universe to bring you the rest of the co-creators to make it
happen.
It is time to unleash your free will and write your own destiny.
There is nothing written in the stars that are foreshadowing who you are and what you
can become.
Once every part and every cell within you is aligned with this inner-knowing, you have
awakened to the divine power of creation you have inherited.
That power lives in you and patiently awaits for you to call upon it.
You are neither your past, your birth conditions, your roles, your accomplishments, your credentials,
your awards, your bills, your bank statements, your 9-5 job that makes you cringe every morning
upon waking up, nor are you your body, your mind, your beliefs, your thoughts, your baggage,
your limitations, your past relationships, even your soul contract.
Deep down inside, you are a being powerful beyond your imagination.
Once you remember all this, you will remember your sacred ability to create anything you
wish and your joyous vibration will make the world just a little brighter.
It matters not one bit if you do not know your calling.
If you could start from a blank slate and create anything you wanted in life without
limitations from this moment on, who would you be?
What would you create?
What is one small step you can take today to be that?
Follow your heart.

Top 10 INSANE Things Garbage Men Discovered - Duration: 6:01.
NO, I know, there are garbage disposal workers who are women too…
I am sorry about the not so inclusive title, it's just how SEO and the Google Algorithm
works!
SO …now we have that out of the way, I am Rebecca Felgate, and today we are going to
be finding out the top 10 weird things found in the Garbage.
Let's start things off strong at number 10 with a - Matted Clump of Dead Rats
Hurray….
On website Rate My Job.com, one disposal worker shared an on the job horror story…
They were out on their route one day when they discovered what they described as a huge
mass hanging from a tree, about 20 feet off the ground.
They called the fire department who arrived to cut down the mysterious item.
When it was cut down, they discovered it was a clump of around 75 dead rats all tied together.
The police arrived and suggest it could be some kind of religious sacrifice.
9 - Biomedical Waste Biomedical waste is dangerous for many reasons
– it can spread diseases and viruses, in worst cases like ebola, and it can also contaminate
enviornments.
This kind of waste needs to be disposed of properly.
This kind of waste comes from hospital gloves, operations, bodily fluids, needles…all of
that kind of stuff.
Recently a hospital in Trichy in the Indian city of Tamil Nadu came under fire after their
hazardous waste was found in the regular trash.
Imagine being a garbage disposal worker and finding a fist fulla bloodied needles.
Spare a thought for those that specialize in Biomedical waste, one disposal worker said
he saw a 2 week old leg sticking out the trash.
8 - World War Two Code Breaking Machine…
Blimey!
What a find!
In a reddit post asking garbage workers what the weirdest thing they had ever found was,
one guy said his friend found an enigma machine worth 10 thousand dollars.
The Enigma machine was key during world war two and was used by the allies to crack the
Enigma code used by the Nazis.
7 - Engagement Ring and a Pack of Condoms Another person on the reddit thread said a
friends dad who worked in the industry found an endearment ring and a pack of condoms in
a disposable bag, thrown in the trash!
Apparently the man always wanted to know the story behind it….and let's be honest,
so do the rest of us!
6 - Fake Bombs Sometimes people plant fake devices in bins
just to cause a scene and mess with people.
It is not ideal as it wastes so much of everybody's time, none the less it happens.
This year, recyclers found fake pipe bombs outside a liquor store in Longmont, Boulder
County, USA.
This kind of thing inconveniences everyone as the whole street has to be closed down
for hours.
Luckily they're often fakes, but still…these things need to be taken seriously.
5 - Dead Racoon alongside Dead Alligator.
Say whuuut?
According to a thread on Bro Bible, one garbage disposal worker in New Orelans found a Taxidermied
Dead Racoon Dressed in Baby Toddler clothes alongside a Taxidermied Aligator.
It sounds weird but apparently in at one school in New Zealand kids are encouraged to dress
up dead possums in clothes for dead possum beauty pagents…so…maybe that kinda thing
also goes down in the Southern states of the USA?
4 - A clump of plaster heads?
Whaaaa?
This picture was posted on Reddit of a clump of plaster heads that a person found while
trash picking….. they noted that every face was different.
CREEPY.
3 - First ever Apple Computer A woman tossed out one of Apple's first
ever computers, The Apple 1 in 1976.
It ended up at a recycling centre in California, where it was lifted out the trash by staff
members and sold at action for 200 thousand dollars!
The recycling centre even tracked down the woman who threw it out to give her a cut of
the money.
2 - Bodies Garbage disposal workers will tell you that
it isn't that uncommon.
Personally to me it seems like a stupid idea to try and dispose of a body by throwing it
away!
Obviously someone will find it!
In Rome just this year, dismembered legs were found in a city trash bin in Rome, leading
to the arrest of a man who killed his sister.
In Florida in August this year, a headless body was found at a garbage dump.
1 - A whole museum worth of stuff!
Ex New York Garbage Disposal man, Nelson Molina, has been collecting rare and interesting trash
his whole life.
Now, after 20 years, he has filled a whole museum with the weird thing he has found in
his day.
His collection includes exotic lamps, signs, art work and X Ray images and more!
For sanitation reasons, he can't open the museum to the public, but people can arrange
private tours with Molina.
This place looks amazing!
I love this kind of thing…there is something so beautiful about lost items.
So….that was the Top 10 Insane things garbage men have discovered….as they say, one person's
trash is another's treasure, although I can't imagine wanting a clump of sacrificial
rats.
Which of these delicious finds would you like to come across in the trash?
Let me know!

Syrian MP reveals government stance towards Kurdistan referendum - Duration: 1:30.
Omar Osse, Syrian MP
This is a historical turning point that the Kurdish people decide for their will
The referendum day was a historical event for the Kurdish people.
Concerning the Syrian government stance towards referendum,
it rejects the referendum but its stance is not as tough as the Iraqi government, Turkey or Iran.
The Syrian government looks at the matter more flexibly and their tone is not that tough.
We hope the referendum help the Kurdish people to reach its rights
We hope the Kurds have their independent political entity and sovereignty.
We hope they have their own state in the Middle East like the Turks, Arabs and Persians.
Kurdish people are secular and open-minded and fighting terrorism.
Kurds are open to the other nations.
Kurds have the right to have their opportunity for the right to self-determination.
And referendum does not mean that Kurdistan state is coming soon, but it will take time for negotiations.
It is a long process.
It is an internal case for Iraq as there will be negotiations with the central government in Baghdad.

Q&A – How can I keep mealy bugs from coming back next year? - Duration: 1:42.
"I have mealy bugs on my hostas and coleus.
"Is there anything I can do at the end of the season
to keep mealy bugs from coming back next year?"
This is from Miss Kathleen right here in Memphis.
So mealy bugs.
She wants to try to get rid of them for next season.
Practice good sanitation is gonna be one of them,
because they're gonna overwinter in crop residue.
That's one thing you need to do.
But here's the second thing, Mr. D.
You know about this.
How about late winter, early spring,
dormant oil application?
That way you can help get rid of the eggs
or any of those clumps that might be there.
That's the route I would go with that.
Of course you have to read the label
to make sure you have the right proportions
for the oil mix.
I think that'll do the trick.
- That's about all that I know.
The systemic insecticides don't do very well
with mealy bugs.
That, and then there are contact killers you can use.
You have to use them early.
- Insecticidal soap would be one.
Oil is another you could use.
They are kind of tight, but I would use those other.
I would, late winter, early spring,
I would do the oil application.
Just follow the label on that,
and that should keep you
covered, Miss Kathleen.

Fruit Tree Planting Tips – Family Plot - Duration: 8:58.
All right, Mr. D., let's talk a little bit
about planting fruit trees.
What do we need to start with that?
Is this the time of year to be doing that?
- This is the time of year to be
really getting involved in planting fruit trees.
It's not the time of year to stick the trees in the ground.
But it is the time of the year to be preparing your soil,
making sure your pH is right,
and choosing the varieties that you're gonna plant,
and choosing whether--
Doing research on whether or not you need pollinators,
figuring out how many you need to feed a family of five
or whatever, depending on what you want to do with them.
Going out and choosing the site.
Now is the time to do that.
You can do some site prep.
Burn down, control some weeds and grasses,
go ahead and get ready to do that.
I've got some information that might help
with that a little bit.
Get my glasses on here.
Auburn has a real, real good publication.
(Chris laughing)
- Yeah, he knows all about that.
- I've copied a few things from the publication,
and it's entitled Fruit Culture in Alabama.
If you have a sloped area and you're planting rows,
don't plant your rows up and down the hills.
Plant them on the contour, because you don't want
to increase the chances of gullies forming
and things like that.
In a landscape situation, you don't have to pay
a lot of attention to the spacings
that I'm about to mention because you kind of
strategically place these trees around
to kind of help the aesthetic nature of your landscape.
This is for a family of five.
Tree fruits and nuts, five to eight apples.
They recommend the semi-dwarf apples.
Five to eight peaches if you want to go that route.
Five to eight plums, two to four persimmons,
three to five pear trees, four to six pecan trees.
I really don't understand that on the pecans.
And the spacings on semi-dwarf apples,
15 to 25 feet apart.
Because they're gonna spread and you want to be able
to get between them, especially with your riding lawnmower
or your mower or your bush hog and your sprayer
and all that.
Peaches, 20 by 20 or 15 by 20.
Plums, same as peaches, 20 by 20.
Anytime there's a choice,
if you've got the room, go to more distance between it
because it's amazing how fast those trees will--
- (Chris) Spread out.
- Overlap.
Pecans, 60 by 60.
That's some of the older pecan trees.
There are some precocious varieties,
some smaller pecans that you can plant
a little bit closer than that.
Pears, 20 by 20 or 25 by 30.
Some of the pear trees get a lot bigger.
On pollination, most apples need to be pollinated.
Some of the yellow delicious varieties are self-fruitful.
Pecans are wind pollinated.
Pecans need pollination.
You need a type one with a type two pecan tree.
Plums, peaches, and nectarines are self-fruitful.
You don't need pollinators for that.
Pears need cross pollination.
You need two varieties of pear trees.
- When it comes time to planting them,
how do you go about it?
- Okay, we've done all that,
you've chosen your varieties, you've ordered them,
you've got them coming,
the smaller plants you can get, the better off you are,
in my opinion.
Two year old plants are plenty big.
So go out, you want to dig a planting hole.
If you've got bare root plants,
it doesn't have to be that big a hole.
It doesn't need to be that deep.
But the most important thing when you're planting
any fruit tree is that you make sure
that you plant it no deeper than the depth
that it grew in the nursery.
If it's a grafted plant, usually two or three inches
of root stalk visible above the ground.
You can see where the graft took and came out.
You don't want to cover that up,
because if you plant it too deep, it'll die.
Not that it won't do well, it'll die,
because the above ground portion of a plant
is supposed to stay above ground.
Don't mulch it, don't pile mulch up against it.
The above ground portion of a hardwood plant
is supposed to stay above ground.
It needs air.
If you put it below the ground, it will die.
I can't repeat that enough.
Do not use a post hole digger to dig a planting hole
(Chris laughing) for a tree.
I don't care if it's a little bitty tree.
Do not use a post hole digger because you're gonna be,
you're gonna want to dig it deeper than it needs to be dug.
Use a shovel.
- Uh oh!
- You like that dirty shovel?
Use a shovel.
Dig a wide planting hole, not a deep planting hole.
Dig a wide planting hole.
Dig it the depth that, if it's in a container or pot,
dig it, take it out the pot, set it down,
and if it goes down an inch, take it out,
add dirt to the bottom, and get it so it is the same depth
that it grew in the nursery.
Then you bring the dirt around, put the topsoil,
if it's got any grass or anything, I'd crumble that up,
put it down first, and try to make a little kind of dam
well out away from the stem or the base of the plant
so that when it rains, everything's gonna settle down
a little bit.
Keep that in mind and if you dug it way too deep
and then you had to add a lot of soil in the bottom,
that's gonna settle down and it's gonna wash in
on it again, so keep that in mind.
You'll actually want it up a little higher
if you have a lot of loose soil in the bottom
of your planting hole.
- Put the native soil back in the hole, right?
It doesn't have to be amended.
- Right, it doesn't have to be amended.
Put the native soil right back in the hole.
Do that and you don't have to stake it.
If the plant, if it's a peach, plum, or nectarine,
cut them off at 20 to 25 inches.
If it's an apple or pear, it'll be 25 inches.
All you're doing is you're telling that plant
where the first limbs, you want them to come out.
And then if you've got a real tall tree,
I'd bring it down.
- Can I ask you this, though?
How do you pick the right tree for your area,
for your landscape?
- I go to choosing varieties for Tennessee.
Small fruit cultivars for Tennessee, PB-746.
Dr. Lockwood up in Knoxville put together
a great publication.
in it he's got peaches, varieties that are good
for Tennessee, and there's a bunch of them.
I'm not gonna read them all unless you want me to.
- We can get them on the website.
- Okay, put them on the website.
Apples, I've got three, four pages of peaches.
Apples, not as many apples.
Apples do better in higher altitudes.
We're here in west Tennessee in the Mid-South.
Our altitude is the lowest it is anywhere
in the state of Tennessee, but we can still grow apples.
The thing I like about this publication
is it'll also tell you about the problems.
And there are problems,
fire blight and brown spot,
and brown rot in peaches, plums, and nectarines.
There's one section on apples, disease resistant apples.
In a home situation, I would probably recommend that.
Keep in mind, resistance is resistance.
Resistance is not proof.
This publication will tell you what varieties
have proven that will work in Tennessee.
- So Mr. D., when do we plant fruit trees?
- Late winter.
Late February, early March is the best time,
in my opinion, to put them in the ground.
- It's an opinion I'd listen to.
- I would too.
Thank you much, Mr. D., appreciate that.
- Thank you.

Q&A – Will Granny Smith trees grow in the Memphis area? - Duration: 2:14.
"Will Granny Smith trees grow
"and produce in the Memphis area?
"If so, what is a second variety that will cross pollinate
with them?"
This is from Danny right here in Cordova.
We just got done talking about fruit trees.
Granny Smith, of course, apples.
He wants to know, will they grow here and produce?
- They will.
They are one of the varieties that was on
that long list that I did not read to you.
They will grow here.
They will have problems.
Fire blight and things like that.
So I would probably get one of the
more disease resistant varieties to cross pollinate.
You ought to be okay.
- Do you have a couple of those to read off real quick?
- (Mr. D.) Yeah.
- Something we might be familiar with.
- Let me do that.
You might want to be prepared to spray the Granny Smith.
Let me read the Granny Smith.
Let me read a little bit about that.
Fruit ripens late, stores well, may develop
an orange blush on the side that's exposed to the sun.
If it's allowed to hang.
Trees are willowy, somewhat difficult to train.
They're susceptible to scab, fire blight, cedar apple rust,
and powdery mildew.
You may have to spray them.
The disease resistant apples I mentioned
are red free, liberty, freedom, enterprise, and gold rush.
The yellow varieties seem to be better pollinators,
and gold rush is the only one of these that's yellow.
Let me read you a little bit about gold rush.
The tree is highly resistant to scab, powdery mildew,
moderately resistant to fire blight.
Fruit is sweet, crisp, and good for fresh and processing.
Ripens late, keeps very well.
You may want to go that route.
