2 compost piles one with worms one with out
Q

What kind of soil do earthworms live in? Hot and Dry? Hot and moist? Have you ever seen an earthworm in soils that were dry? Warm? Lacking in organic matter? Earthworms need a very moist environment to live in and a very moist environment does not do much for an active, hot compost pile. So you will not find earthworms in a pile that is actively composting and is quite warm even though a bit moist. If earthworms are present in a compost pile then the pile is not actively composting because earthworms cannot live in that kind of an environment. Earthworms job is to help convert organic matter in the soi into stuff the soil bacteria can better utilize to feed your plants, that whole Soil Food Web works closely together starting with the wee buggers, Earwigs, Pill Bugs, Sow, Bugs, Ants, etc. that aid in converting large bits and pieces of dead organic matter into smaller bits and pieces of organic matter that other, smaller, critters can digest.

Oh my zackey, I'm glad the momma hog didn't charge you! If they think their babies are in danger, they will charge in a heartbeat. I had 5 of them just chillin' under the shade trees and hanging out in my front yard 2 years back. I was afraid to go out the house and walk down my long driveway to get my mail. Yep, I'm a chicken.

Thank you for the help. I went out and checked it again tonight and it looked as though it might have started scaring over like you said. I'll just keep watching it and hopefully harvest it soon.

Should I replace all my light bulbs if one goes out or just the one?
Q

I'd replace them as they go out unless you have a situation like you cannot get on a ladder and have to hire help to have them changed or something like that.

That is exciting! I feel that way about my Bulls!

If someone had told me ten years ago that a sports team could make my day, I would have looked at them cross-eyed.

GO BISON!!!!!

I get a kick out of remembering the "Naysayers" at the time, when our President & AD/staff at the time was starting the machinations of the move up from D-II to D-I !!

(kinda wondered sometimes about some D-I schools we've played over the years! They had been at this level for some time, and we just destroyed them....! Most were out East...)

MANY people thought it was crazy...we'll never compete...too much $$$...etc., etc.....blah-blah-blah!
I KNEW it was time!!
NOW look at us!!
7 yrs. after starting the transition, we're National Champions in Football!
Just a yr. or two ago...we suffered through a 3-8 year!

It was 2004 I believe, and the schools had to go thru a 5-yr. "probation"-period, when you couldn't compete in the playoffs...no matter HOW good you ended up!
It was a little tougher too on the recruiting end of things. The kids coming INTO the program(s) at the time knew they wouldn't be able to be in any playoffs. But their play paved the way for this eventually.

We've had decent success in Basketball, and Women's Volleyball at this level too!

"How 'bout them Bison"!!!!!!!!!!!!
