You're welcome. Any knowledge I have or get I enjoy sharing it with others because I know that I just might help someone else and it just makes me feel happy. My stairstep metal garden bed has little slots on the outside so I had a bunch of decorative glass from the Dollar Store. I put it in the...

I didn't know anything about getting rid of slugs and snails, with the exception of pouring salt on them, until I watched an episode of Homestead Rescue. The woman that helps is Misty and she built garden beds and elevated them off the ground, wrapped copper tape around the supports, and then...

For anyone with a slug or snail problem I recommend using crushed glass or put copper tape on the beds if they are raised. If you don't have raised beds you can make some orbs. You need enough pennies to cover the orb. After you get them all glued in, use a water proof grout to put around it...

7 for 7. I try to keep things in the house for the garden.

Welcome to Sufficient Self. It's nice to have you here. Oops I should have read better before posting.

Okay so my husband said that I am referring back to motherhood. That's why I am cradling the pumpkins.🤣🤣

I'm actually thinking that after I get enough of the cradles made I can make a trellis for the vines and just try to make sure that the pumpkins sit on the cradle. I'm just basically experimenting with the cradles and maybe the trellis could be for a different variety. I grew a pumpkin that was...

They take too long to ripen on the ground so I am doing an experiment with the cradles.

My first of many pumpkin cradles. It's about 16 1/2 inches tall and 17 1/2 inches long

SNOW=S@@@ NO ONE WANTS. Compliments from my oldest daughter 😁

1.c, 2.a, 3.a, 4.c, 5.b, 6.a, 7.a, 8.a, 9.c, 10.c. I don't really care about looking at catalogs so I prefer to buy in store.

No, I'm positive it's not the same lady LOL.

He will be driving a semi truck. Delivering lumber and possibly windows.

My husband had a job interview today with Sierra Pacific and they said they will contact him on Monday. He will start at 30 an hour for 30 days and then go to 31.50.

My chickens decided to go try to dig out all the potatoes in the big pallet bed but I put some sticks in the small one so they attempted to dig those up but they gave up.

Even though it's not quite garden season I went ahead and planted the potato seeds from last year.

I can remember when we were going to visit my husband's family in Hanford and OH what a nightmare that was. The fog was so thick you probably couldn't cut through it with a chainsaw. I'm good with staying at home on the bad days unless my husband is home and then he can drive, that's why he's a...

I've just been getting rain and wind. The mountain areas North of us are fairly clear. Donner pass is almost always shut down or at least people are stuck putting on chains. I tell everyone that I might not have been born in California but I was raised here and we don't know nuttin about that...

If anyone wants some seeds from the big pumpkin let me know and I will get them in the mail

My oldest daughter got the keys to her new house on the 7th of December and we celebrated Christmas at her house. I'm super proud of her but her boyfriend needs to get kicked to the curb. I wonder if the city dump would take him for her 🤔
