I wonder if they make that guy in small size. Then he can just
GI Joe/ commando the vole caves for me. I'll take a dozen, they come with the gun, right?
Hey, They can bunk in the fairy houses. :ya
Problem solved!
yea... chickens and bait won't work because they love to eat furry small animals. and scaled ones too. well, actually, they eat anything.
The 'clever' hen figured out how to clear the bunny barricade, so now we have chicken barricade extensions to make.
Varmints! Every where I turn something...
Hmmm, maybe when I am ready to plant the things that need a larger hole.
:woot wow, you have just opened a whole new world of gardening to me.
I have some trees to plant. What caliber do you suggest?
Garden number one has the bunny barricade surrounding it and a trench circling the entire garden...Garden number two has just the bunny barricade (Groundcloth stapled down and then bent up at 90 degree angle) We did vapam the entire thing, so anyone in the garden when it went under plastic...
I wanted to ask earlier...why for? huh? eh? I need more information.
My ignorance is showing, sorry.
Down here, a shortage of insects has never been an issue.
Wait, I take that back. We seem to be waning on the pollinator front. I have plenty of squash bugs though.
Obsessions. Alcohol, drugs, cats... some peoples brains are wired for being obsessed.
For some people it is a religion, another person, or the internet... gardening comes to mind.
The only thing that makes any of us 'Normal" is that there really is no such thing- and there in lies our normalcy...
it was in Florida - in July.... a week. no. We have completely different grocery issues than you all. trying to get a gallon of milk home before it gets warm is our big issue.
Yea. I lost an entire bag of cheese in the back of the car once.
I did eventually find it. I figured a week was pushing the limits of edibility- or survival.
We have put wheels on everything that has to move. We are both at the age where there is a hitch in our backs...and we never can tell when it will happen. When my husband sees me on my hands and knees he can't tell if I am in pain or just weeding again.
Yes, art supply store have the soft graphite pencils. I just use some comet on them in the fall and get them cleaned up for next year. I find that by the time I can identify the plant I better pull them up and put them away or they get buried in mulch or stepped on and broken.
I was thinking...
I still have to get the rabbit barricade back up. so things are waiting in the greenhouse, but I do wheel them out for fresh air and sunshine each day. Little field trips before the big one.
The PHDs are the only way to go.
I also root my suckers so that I have flowering mature plants earlier.
I have never had too many tomatoes. Ever. I have never canned enough tomatoes to last the year out either.
I ordered them just for canning. If it is a good eater all the better.
Rutgers and better boy have always been my go to-maters. I grew delicious last year and liked it. Federel always does well for me. And Romas.
I want to try the Amish paste tomatoes as well, but maybe next year.
That is funny. I have a commercial greenhouse business so flats and cell trays are all over the place... but I have 'MY" trays, and everyone now knows to leave the crazy woman's stuff alone. Seriously, Theirs- mine- how hard is that?
