My lychee trees latest update
Comments (6)Jason, I almost lost all of my crop due to web worm attacks. Yes, lychees are my favorite now--although I started liking bananas a lot (hence my name here) :) How old is your tree and what variety is it? Do you have any pictures to share? If it's a young tree, usually scanty fruit, but as they grow older, they may grow a little more fruit, so you can look forward to it giving you a lot more ... do keep us updated of its progress. But, for my case, I have no impressive results from growing Sweetheart (14 fruit for a 16 ft tree), Mauritius (12 fruit from a 16ft tree) and as for my 10 ft tall Hak Ip, none for several years in a row. But for my Brewster, I'm getting alternate year's harvest (IF they don't get devoured by web worms that is.. lol) Though I must say having tasted all of the the fruit now, I personally like Sweetheart the best--a lot more flesh and very succulent (with chicken tongue seeds). I actually have begun sprouting all the seeds I have this year. Puglvr, I'm glad you're still enjoying your frozen lychees. I will try to keep them as long as I can in the fridge, then I'll freeze some of the up if they begin to look tired. Thanks for the pruning reminder. I'll be clipping their branches off by mid July. I read somewhere that branches more than 1 inch thick should not be clipped off. Otherwise, it may affect their fruit production. Perhaps I was clipping off thicker branches of my Mauritius and Sweetheart in years past. I did remember clipping huge chunks out of them because my space here is quite tight. Here are some more pictures of my Brewster's harvest: #1 - Fruit that remained in the mid section of the tree. The others all dropped off. #2 - The fruits that were picked a week before June 19 had softer flesh that stuck to the seeds. These are about the right texture--spongy and not clinging to the seeds. The size aren't too big--smaller than the Sweetheart fruit. # 3 - My bunny checking out the harvest. He was more interested in munching the leaves ... lol. #4 - I collected them all in a 16-quart container and counted them. Altogether 350 or so .. a little more than the 100-200 fruit I had in 2013. 2014 had only 1 fruit :( ..., but thankful for this year's crop despite the web worms and for my hubby who sprayed BT regularly on it....See MoreLatest Purple Martins' update
Comments (7)Caroline's experience may differ from mine; she's so good about writing summaries on her colony. I'm a laid back landlord and can only check a few of my poles (I have 9 poles with a total of 108 compartments). My martins don't bother me too much. They hover around but don't really complain terribly. I've had a couple females stay in the cavity during a check. They do get used to it. I get swooped more if I'm just hanging out in the yard close to the racks. I talk to them every time I'm outside so they know my voice. Some even come over just to make sure it's me, greeting me with a chirp or click. The Barn Swallows are far worse. I have a couple nests in my front entry way and when there are babies, even going out to get the mail is an adventure. They're not going to hit but they do get close!...See MoreMy latest update
Comments (6)Whoa, looks awesome! It's most interesting to me that you seem to opt to take photos at night, haha. I see from the thread you started even before February. Arrgggh, I'm growing Datil peppers this year...and "growing" is a real overstatement. I planted mine really late (June 2) and they are struggling along to the second leaf stage now, looking rather pathetic. When they said chinense peppers were slower, I didn't know they meant a 2-year process. When did you start them? I think I'll plant seeds next year after my Thanksgiving meal, lol. This one even LOOKS deadly:...See MoreLatest Win10 update messed up sleep
Comments (11)Have 'rolled back' from the Creators update seven times now. The update destroys my display. What's funny, or maybe not is when the update has messed up my display, I go to the device manager, uninstall the "onboard" video graphics and reboot. Windows then installs a good, working graphics driver "but" within thirty seconds automatically uninstalls that one and installs the crappy driver again! I have tried every tool and registry hack to stop it but nothing works. I have tried installing the original driver but nothing seems to work! On windows 10 Home you cannot stop the update .. only delay it until the next time! I understand that it's an AMD innards problem.8(...See MoreElmer J Fudd
