I have to definitely go buy a bigger cfl. Does it have to be a big cfl or would multiple small ones work? Say using 5-6 100 watt equivalent ones to cover a larger area.

The neighbor and I have a hedgerow separating our property. I was thinking I would plant pole beans along it and let them take it. Any problems with this? What other veggies would do good on the hedgerow.

That is interesting. I always thought you wanted as wide of a spectrum as possible. Higher lumens does make sense as well though.

I use it to save on tea bags and give my tea an extra kick. I like my tea strong. When I don't use mint it takes 11 small luzianne tea bags to make my gallon of tea. When I use mint it is a little stronger and I only have to use 8 teabags. I also love the flavor it gives the tea. My rabbit loves...

That is the best and tastiest deterrent. Why not see if a neighbor or friend will let you tie their dog near your garden for a few days? Male dogs are best. Even after you pooperscoop the deer will smell the presence of the dog a little while after he is gone.

Might want a soil test before you try it. http://www.coopext.colostate.edu/4dmg/Soil/charcoal.htm

Guilty as charged.

I would probably grab a few bags of lime and try to round up some dry leaves or other brown material to go on top of it to help the smell go away.

Nifty I have been looking for a place within a reasonable distance that would load it for small fee. You are really lucking out getting it delivered.

I have often wondered if those were safe and what they were made of myself. I would prefer to use small fish in a rain barrel instead. (like goldfish) I know they are safe and actually give the plants nutrients.

Tomatos seem to ripen in a brown bag ok. Fried green tomatos are awesome too.

Thats for sure. Pennyroyal is an abortificant. My granddaughter does not play in it. It is just near the front porch. She plays on the porch. I would not let a young child play in it although I doubt it would hurt them.

I figured it would be ok. Just wanted a little reassurance. Thanks

I having been keeping my tops trimmed off my mint and pennyroyal with my string trimmer this year. I am doing this to keep it from flowering. I want to keep it from flowering so it can't go to seed and will not attract the bees to an area my granddaughter plays. Will repeatedly taking the tops...

My electric blower vacuum works great. I like the least effort methods so I will be trying my bagger mower.

I like it. Do you get those lights local or do you have to order them online. Have you ever tried growing peppers and tomatoes under them? I would like to grow a winter veggie garden in my house. Fresh homegrown tomatoes year round sound great.

I should build one of those to look for gold on grandmas creeks.

After a couple years of pulling it and feeding it to the goats I no longer see any.

It could be rabbits. Alot of old timers around here used onions in their rabbit boxes. I feed my rabbit the trimming off onions occasionally and she loves it.

I am thinking some type of squash. I had several volunteer mystery tomato plants come up in my garden. I put some in a row and let my neighbor have the rest. It could be roma, cherry, rutger or bigboy tomatoes because a good bit of each were thrown to my chickens last year.
