    Sick tree, I think

    I also think sap. I have seen what your talking about on a peach tree and it was sap. I think perhaps the ridges are just the 'squeezed through the bark, ring marks'

    Idea for small garden composting.

    Hey theres always a FIRST so you try it out and let us know how it works. Perhaps you'll devise a new even better/easier way for us all. Personally I don't care if the chickens scratch and scatter indiscriminately...hehehe

    Caster Bean Question

    A friend gave me some castor beans and told me to soak them about 24 hours before planting them. I did and they swelled up about to burst with water. Ithen planted them and it was just a few days it seems until they sprouted-but realistically, it was more like 14 days. Somewhere between 10-14...

    Wanted-I know this is ridiculus...but

    WOW everybody. Pat's right there are several types of sumac and not all are poisonious. I've researched the different ones and thought I'd just see what was offered. I was hoping for staghorn and possible rubias glarbuius (spelled terriblly) but any kind would have been appreciated. I have...

    Wanted-I know this is ridiculus...but

    I want SUMAC, please! Here is why-I was recently at a master garden function and overheard a couple fellow MGs going on and on about this plant they were looking at. As I passed by I said 'omg that's Sumac, I grew up with that stuff growing in the ditches-it a weed AND it's poisonious' Tact is...

    Anybody ever order flowers from Burgess?

    I ordered from Burgess, and waited and waited and got nothing. So I contacted them and was told my order was canceled because of overwhelming response for the offer. I asked them to offer me another deal then and they refused saying my credit card wasn't charged so nothing owed. I was bummed out...

    Compost pile...in chicken run

    Hi, I do not have an enclosed run, I freerange my flock. But I do have my compost near my coop and my chickens do exactly as you'd think. They help the pile immensely-imo I know they eat some of the pile-but it's a even trade as far as I'm concerned. I say-go for it.

    *UPDATE* Mimosa trees

    I want one because I grew up visiting my grandma in TN and she had one in her yard-my brother and I used to climb. It's a nostalgic thing for me. She also had a huge holly tree, I'd love to have-but not hardy in my zone 5. But the mimosa-I will baby and HAVE!
