Thanks for all the replies. Do you think you actually have to solarize it? Or can you just cover it with cardboard and mulch over the top? If you put blacK plastic down, could you mulch over the top of that? or do you think it is the heat that would eventually get all 4 billion pieces of the...

It is also called wild morning glory. The flowers in this picture are white, mine are pink. It is a viny type plant with arrow shpaed leaves and a morning glory flower. It is totally awful. just thinking about it gives me a terrible sinking feeling in my stomach. I'm not crazy about using...

Any suggestions for bindweed? When we put a new septic in, they had to dig up everything and it looks like bindweed pieces have been scattered to all four corners of the yard!!! I am paying my daughter and her friends 2 cents/inch of root. It doesn't take them long to make 4-5$ a piece, and I...

The day lilies are orange but some are double oragnges, they bloom a little later than the single ones. I have both blue and yellow irises ( I think) I'm also trying to give away egyptian onion, or walking onion if there are any takers!

Wish you lived closer too, I ended up composting a lot of them. I don't think I could kill these, everywhere they hit the ground they send out roots, not to mention the roots of the mother plant and any black raspberries that fall onto the ground. . .

I use wire shelves and hijack the space near the sliding glass doors in the dining room (southern exposure). I use heat mats for my warm loving plants, basil, peppers, eggplants and have both lights and a fan on a timer for 14 hrs/day.

I strongly recommend that you get thornless blackberries. They are not invasive, but will spread at a reasonable rate, they taste good and they are THORNLESS! I'm zone 7 and they are fine here. I got mine from miller nurseries and Fedco trees might have them, but I'm not sure.

I've got tons, too many and all you have to do is come pick them up. . .

I love gardening with my chickens. They were just pullets this summer so they really didn't do a lot of damage, but they did eliminate my grasshopper population. They also found a whole mess of grubs? worms? must have been 1000's of them (really gross) underneath my peach tree in early fall...

I always use Fedco. I like their approach, it is great reading with wonderful pictures and it is really inexpensive. Kay
