What happens when I buy too early
Comments (4)Thanks, the sink came with the house. Well, I see cars almost everyday - parked at that ugly white metal building with the red roof across the field. The neighbors put that up five years ago in their back yard for a son to have a car detailing business. Ugh. This Spring I planted a Profusion crabapple tree to block my view of it from the kitchen window. It will take maybe 10 -15yrs. but it will be worth it....See MoreWhat will happen if I retire early?
Comments (1)You can get a statement from SS as to what your benefits will be when you retire. At 62 or at full term. I retired at 59 and took early SS at 62. I got and get only 1/2 of what I would have received if I had waited until 65 to take the SS. I think whatever you have built up stays in your account until you actually take the SS. It depends on whether you claim SS early or wait the full time. But give the office a call I found they were very helpful....See MoreWhat Happens When Garlic Planted Early (September)?
Comments (16)Over the course of the summer I have dug a couple to check. The last one was about a week ago and it was about a quarter in diameter. This set were the surviving cloves from a set of hardneck bulbs that had mostly dried out in warm storage. They had not been subject to any cooling period since they were dug in August of 2014, and all sprouted quickly when planted in June of 2015. Not one of them sent up a scape either this year, but all stand up to about 12" to 15" tall with almost no drying leaves nor has that situation changed at all for a long time. They haven't been watered either after they showed good initial growth. The real question in my mind was whether I could get large single rounds out of the small cloves. I think I can at this point but I do not know if I can get them to cure. I may have to use them green. The second question is whether they will winter from an early summer planting, which I think is likely, and then hopefully produce an increased size bulb next summer. edit: garlic almost certainly needs a rest period before it can sprout, but I do not think it needs cooling for that. What it needs cooling for is to start the blooming scape (sorta sounds like tulips doesn't it - same sort of thing IMO). I do not store my garlic cold, but rather at room temperature in a corner of the kitchen. The variety in the summer bed sends up scapes real easily when fall planted and wintered over in the ground. Even bulbils often do. But this summer bed never showed a single bolt. I intend to do this again perhaps on a larger scale depending on what this set of two dozen cloves ends up producing. So far whatever they end up doing they are all behaving very much alike, really uniform to this point....See MoreWhat Happens If Plant Sweet Potato Early?
Comments (5)They are extremely frost sensitive!! Otherwise they will just sit there shivering untill the soil warms up. They will grow when conditions suit them, but you will not gain time....See MoreOakley
