If you're like me, this suggestion will hardly get a notice. Cause I'm old school and don't trust new fangled contraptions. But please take a look and give a consideration.
Electric, battery operated.
This winter I had a project that called for quite a bit of chainsaw work. Nothing big, but over...
Harvest the trees. Right! To sell, companies want a forest full, not just a dozen or so. And to get someone to just drop them, no cut up, no clean up, they want $500 / tree. No market for hardwood down here. Just too much of it around. And these guys are so big that I've never owned a saw big...
And reality rears its ugly head! My garden, I am afraid, is doomed to failure.
Yesterday, between plantings, I paused to admire the garden. And realized it was high noon. And also realized that the sun was just BEGINNING to touch the edge of my garden. Another hour before it could bathe the...
Too little, too late, probably. But if you have a reciprocating saw (sawzall) you can get a blade for combo wood/metal for about $8. Go right between the slats and supports, cutting the nails, and saving the entire slat, for using the entire length of the slats.
Am I actually just container gardening in the ground? With my heavy clay, for each plant, I dig a hole twice the diameter of the pot and twice as deep. Then I filled the hole with a mixture of compost, potting soil, and rabbit manure (1/3,1/3,1/3). First year gardening, and the clay has had NO...
I KNEW IT! I should have asked! @baymule , who has 81 tomato plants. Has 6 jalapeno plants. And she lives in TX. Now I know I'm out of my mind with 20 jalapeno plants (and I don't even like jalapeno!).
Maybe I'm safe with only 6 zucchini plants?
Beets question. I wanted to plant beets (I...
My sister had a kinda "Come to Jesus" meeting with me today about my garden.
"Tell me what you've got growing?"
I gave her the list-in the garden, in pots ready for the garden, and up in the germination tray.
H: so when's the last time you ate eggplant?
M: uhhhh....don't think I ever have

I had a rental years ago. College girl painted a mural on the bedroom walls...in acrylic. Primed 3 times. Could still make out the theme. I called Kilz. The lady told me in their test rooms, they painted it on glass. Assured me it would work. Sure enough. One coat, total coverage. Good stuff.
Ok guys. You're confusing the new people (well, one at least).
I understand that burning adds to greenhouse gases, and that is bad (I also remember in my elementary school days the scientists were warning of a coming "Ice Age"....who knows? Always something with these scientists predicting that...
@baymule. This isn't about YOUR garden, but a question about mine....that you pointed out to me. Rabbit manure tea.
3 questions actually.
1. How to tell when it's "used up" i.e. used all the liquid....refill-how many times- or just start over each time?
2. When to apply to seedlings? As soon as...
TEXAS! 8 hours and still in the same state. I drive 8 hours in any direction and I'm 2 states away (except east, which would put me well on the way to Europe).
In addition, some employers just don't give a hoot. My job before retiring, if you missed 1 day, you better have a doctors excuse....and even then you went on countdown to being fired. Fired one guy who left early when he got a phonecall that his daughter had been shot and was in surgery. Not...
Not a problem. Know how society is going. In fact, I have my own "bunny petting room" complete with gently relaxing breezes and bird songs in the background for when I need "stress relief". It's called "the farm". Those bleeding heart snowflakes with delicate sensibilities would feel right at...
Sorry you're hurt that people are repeating the fact that older folks and those with underlying conditions are most likely to die from this disease. But it's a fact (one of the few actual "facts" that we know about this virus). Whether it hurts your feelings or not.
Secondly, sorry it scares you...
