Repotting

My experimental fruit trees need a new summer home. They had been kept up next to the house for easy watering (and to acclimate to the sun), but they've been outside plenty long to acclimate and now that the leaves have come in, there isn't enough sunlight. 

G had the idea to repot them in grow pots and bury them in the ground to help them stay moist longer. 

We have tons of empty grow pots from other trees we planted, so I had my pick of the lot. 

Date palm, fig, two pomegranates, lemon, two bay plants, and an aloe vera. 

The fig has gotten munched by goats and deer, and it was too leggy. G thought I should prune it low to the ground to cause it to bush out. It was hard to do, but chop it I did. Hopefully the new location in the sunny orchard will do the trick!
