Comments (1)St Augustine spreads by stolons over the top of the ground. That makes it relatively easy to control with a string trimmer. It helps if you have a solid barrier between the lawn and the garden beds. The barrier gives you something to edge up against. At least you don't have to deal with rhizomes....See MoreWanted: A good source for purchasing heirloom garlic to eat

Comments (25)Hi Folks, I just wanted to throw in my $.02 on the subject of controlling Japanese Knotweed. This past week I spent two days removing the knotweed from hill along the side of my driveway. The infestation had been growing for about two years and spreading rapidly. In my case, the hillside that was covered in knotweed also had some plants that I wanted to save- some sugar maples, four varieties of ferns, and some viburnum, so using a foliar spray was out of the question. Instead, I used the "cut stem application" as outlined in this document: http://www.pullman-wa.gov/content/WYSIWYG/Recreation/Japanese%20knotweed.pdf The document recommends cutting the canes between the first and second node and filling the "well" with concentrated herbicide (I chose plain Glyophosphate, you choose your own poison). The document claims this method is 95% effective. Another method involves injecting the plant with herbicide using an injection tool. The upside to this method is that you don't need to dispose of the cut canes. In all, it took me just about two days to clear the hillside. I cut enough canes to completely fill my 8' truck bed two times. I'll keep an eye on the area for the next year or so in case any survivors pop up. -Josh-...See MoreLOOKING for: Spread with Feta, Olive oil, garlic and ?
Comments (2)Becky I make a feta spread using my Spanikopita recipe as a base. No Garlic but you could add it if you wished. Actually I think I will omit the nutmeg and use garlic, maybe roasted garlic, next time. Thanks for the idea. Spanikopita Spread/Dip 3/4 lb feta 1/2 lb cottage cheese, pressed and drained 1/2 lb cream cheese, softened 5 - 6 oz of frozen spinach , thawed and pressed of all the liquid 1/4 cup good quality extra virgin olive oil 1/4 cup chopped dill salt pepper nutmeg (omit if using garlic) Combine the three cheeses and process in the food processor until creamy, doesn;t take much. Add olive oil, spinach, and spices and give a qick whir to blend but don't over process (if using garlic add add this point). Add chopped dill and give a very quick whir or blend by hand with a wooden spoon....See More- 5 years ago
