Anyone else suffering slumping sales?
Comments (31)Hanselman: How many people do you have picking and working for you during the busy season? I am pretty much a one man show. my brother in law helps out, but he is mildly mentally handicapped, so his help is limited to specific tasks. Watering, picking cherry tomatoes, carrying totes, watching the kids, open and closing hoop buildings. I know one of the areas I get hurt on is selling. I usually have 24 feet of table space (3 8 foot tables) and only myself to take money and answer questions. I am really hopping most of the time. I always have lines. Good I guess, but I know I am probably missing some sales because of it. My BIL helps with setting out produce when I run out and putting bags on bowls/baskets to be weighed. But he is limited in the abilities. Every little bit helps. Sometimes we even have our 4 kids with us! That sounds Like it was a really good day. I will never be there, at least with my current situation....See MoreAnyone else still suffering JB attacks?
Comments (34)Anne, I saw my first Rose Chafer beetle last year. I didn’t know what it was until you mentioned it in a beetle thread. So after that I have been in denial. I hope that the JB’s never get worse for you CB’s are bad enough and they are ugly. Carol, It’s not that bad really (well it is) but you get them anyway. I have found threw the years that you need a few sacrificial lambs. A couple of roses that the beetles love so much that that some others are left alone. wirosarian, your so dog gone funny. Now who remembers the poster from years back. They showed a necklace made from JB’s. Maybe we should have their nutritional levels tested like they are with other insects....See MoreAnyone else's garden suffer from excessive rain this year?
Comments (16)Interesting.. some people have absolutely no problems and some people did like me. The mosquito population over here exploded. There are swarms of them literally going after me every day. Its good that I didn't have to give any supplemental watering to my plants but too many fungus problems happen in this much rain. Is there really no way of combating fungus diseases caused by the excessive rain? Or do I just have to keep watching my plants suffer and die. Because even if you apply fungicide the rain will only wash it away. I wonder if a state exists where there is consistently 1 inch of rain a week in spring and summer, almost no precipitation(other than snow) in winter, doesn't go below -5 degrees in winter but not a warm winter like in the PNW and southeast(need a pretty good freeze for fungal reasons), doesn't go over 85 degrees in summer, humidity is low in summer, no natural disasters, no voles or Japanese beetles. I would do anything to move to a place like that....See MoreAnyone else suffer abuses from an HOA controlled by a
Comments (44)Although I have never lived in one (and wouldn't want to), I have dealt with any number of HOA's in my capacity as a landscape designer. I have never encountered any issues with them signing off on my designs. Once they have the plan and plant list in hand, they can easily verify that nothing will exceed any height regulations or expand rampantly. I even had one with a 'must have lawn in the front garden' reg (ridiculous when the entry garden area is not much more than 150 square feet!) that agreed to its removal and replanting. I'd try it. Often when presented with a professional design plan, they cave :-) It is true that many HOA's have boards that consist of petty despots who like to throw their weight around to feel important and that some of the regs are arbitrary at best. My ex moved into one like that after we divorced and after butting heads a few times, got himself elected to the board and made the landscaping regulation changes he wanted and thought others would appreciate as well....See MoreUser
