Would you be willing to trade water hyacinths and water lettuce for postage? I have virtually no pond plants as my pond is shaded and I have to start over every year. Check my list and see if I have anything you might be interested in... Christine

SJP, Don't dread.....is there anyone in your area that sells a heat matt for plants? If not look them up online....It is the HEAT that makes them root...The warmer the soil temp, the faster it will root. If you are not interested in using a heat matt, then take your cutting indoors since it is getting cooler out, it stick it in the sunnniest window you have. If your cutting is in dark colored pot, the sun will heat the pot up which in turn will heat your soil. Just keep your cutting warm with lots of lite ok...It will do fine... I would not water it though. Don't let any water touch your cutting unless you know for sure you have roots. Water at edge of pot instead if your soil is bone dry ok. Mike

Sorry kitchen folks- Do you have a Air or Jetted Bath Tub?
Q
Comments (12)
I have a large 2 person jacuzzi 6 foot tub. It is the bellavista. It has 8 jets and an in-line heater. The heater is a must as the water stays nice and hot. I love the big tub and am planning on getting a maax kashmir freestanding tub for my new home. It has air & jets. The new tubs have the drains for the jets at an angle so they drain better. That was the problem with most of the bacteria build up. My tub is about 5 years old. I also have an outdoor hot tub that I can't live without. I have chronic pain and they both do wonders for my health. I highly recommend them both. I know that the big tubs take up a lot of room in a bathroom, but it all comes down to want you want. It is a choice that I have been very happy with.

What a glorious harvest that you have! That's a huge tomato ... do the extra large ones like that taste as good as the regular-sized ones? Pictures just a tiny bit hung over the right edge ... but when I slid the slider across ... I got an ad ... so I only did it once. Last year I took a dozen or so ears of corn to the churches on one Sunday, and figured that there'd be a great harvest the next week. There were dozens of ears ... strewn on the ground ... with a bit chewed on each. I made the mistake of counting - 12 dozen! Corn out in tassel, this year ... should ask the landlord if he has a gun that I can borrow to cramp the coons' syle. Beans something of a disappointment - got a few two weeks ago, some last weekend, but noticed that there were few flowers, and not many ripening now. Last year I had large pickings for about three weeks. Maybe the lack of rain (after an overabundance in the spring) may be the main reason. Looks like a good crop of tomatoes coming. I may be fairly well preserved in body ... but not in the canning line ... but I freeze some beans, peas, etc. Oh - the peas were a disappointment - planted a fairly large number, but only about a half dozen plants deigned to make an appearance. Good wishes for a bountiful winter. ole joyful P.S. Jes wonderin' ... how many babboon's a$$es you son may have seen, for comparison purposes?? o j

Congratulations!! A handsome young man.

Now I know where 'Zitro' came from...hehe. I always wondered what it meant or what it was derived from.

Nice pics.
