The Kitchen Table

Good news, more good news and great news!

Update on my Mom and Brother. Mom is feeling so much better now and able to mostly fend for herself again. DB, who had a quadruple bypass 2 weeks ago, is improving daily. He's been home from the hospital since Monday, and is getting around pretty good.

The great news is......my DSis, who had to go back for a second mammogram and an ultrasound, has no tumor! YAY! What a relief! She's my best friend in all the world, my mentor, and I couldn't stand the thought of her being sick.

I repeat.....YAY!

If the root snapped from tipping the pot , it was insignificant to be a real loss. Try placing the tree in a shaded area for a few days and bring it back out into the sun. 3 of my sweetlee tangerine trees had root outside the pot and I transplanted them. I put them in shade and broken light for about a week to 2 weeks. They are doing fine now. Nice to hear you got some good fruit

Mike, the disk. works good with 2 cement blocks after you plow. As far as just trying to disc virgin soil with grass it wont do it. You have to plow to loosen the soil. My best tool is my spring tooth drag harrow. I can run that through a few times and then till each path for planting seed with my 2 Earthways. without having to plow every year.( because my soil has been worked up every year.) But my first year was a Bugger. I have 6 growing areas this season for around 29,000 sq. ft. of tilled soil. I do not use beds but add a lot of organic matter and manures. I plant my greens tight spaced rows of 3, my beans tight rows of 2. The rest I plant convential with 18-30 inch spacing ,depending on the crop. The equipment that I have does a good job for 1-3 acres ,any more and I would go with a 8n ford or similar with a 3point. My chipper/shredder is great for making compost and also grinds soybeans and corn for chicken feed fast I can grind a 50 lb. bag of any grain or seed fast and have perfect texture, also grinds cornstalks and any other dead plant residue even chicken-manure /straw mix.

One thing, I'd hope you remember--medical science has advanced by leaps and bounds since your dd was a child. I know, even with a procedure my DH had about 5 years ago, and had to have repeated this year, there was vast improvement. I'd be willing to bet that the treatment today is better and hopefully more effective than what you were told many years ago. Wishing your daughter the best. As to your other news--Fantastic, the very best to you and your children.
