Drought Damage - TX
Comments (44)I watered my mature roses about every three to four weeks and watered the babies about 2x a month. By the beginning of August, I thought I was going to lose most of my roses - they looked terrible. However, almost all of them survived. I have had to prune a lot of dead limbs but overall, they look fabulous. My teas (e.g., Mrs. B.R. Cant, Rhodologue Jules Gravereaux, Georgetown Tea) are currently in overdrive, the chinas (e.g. Old Blush, cl. Martha Gonzales, Louis Phillipe) are thriving, the Hybrid Musks actually never seemed to notice the drought, the Rugosas thrived, my climbers did have die back but are currently very happy and seem to have definite thoughts about world domination, and even the bourbons survived (my bourbons are a little more frail and water dependent. Maggie is not happy but she is alive. Zephrine had significant die-back but is going to be OK). We have had a lot of rain this spring (I am north of Ft. Worth) and the roses are responding beautifully. My mature fruit trees are not doing well, however, and many will probably die. My cedar elms and oaks are fine and they were not watered. My pines are fine. We do have a stock tank for the livestock that almost went dry but did not and that helped the local wildlife....See MoreVerd Feed PreProcessing
Comments (43)harry57, "The beauty of doing bokashi is that the material can remain fermenting in the bucket for long periods of time until you're ready to use it." Exactly! It IS beautiful! "smell a bit whiffy" bokashi is a pickling process, well not as in a salt pickling process, but similar results. I think bokashi made from meat, cabbage, radish, manure, or rose pedals should in theory all smell the same. I hope to catch your posts on bokashi burying in the Earth Machine. Maybe toss a couple pieces of biochar... Cowboy Brand Charcoal... the chaff or small pieces and dust would not be missed from the primo stuff. "Earth Machine" does material Really flow through that? How hard is it to harvest? Is it possible to only harvest stuff that was put in the front and the material on the bottom in the back just lives there forever landlocked? Hmmmm. If I was using an "Earth Machine" to finish bokashi I would dump the bucket into the top. Then there would be a choice of materials to top off with. Any of the carbon materials ever mentioned on any composting board including vermicomposting. Garden soil is an option. Poor soil. Bokashi is a moist material. Hmmmmm. Sounds like lots of fun options....See MoreWhich Kitchen Faucet Did You Choose? - 3
Comments (88)We got one of the delta's touch20 for an adjoining powder room. We have had nearly every part replaced and have yet to get it to function with touch less feature! Responsive support hotline but still not functioning. We may have to eat the cost of it since it was purchased prior to jan demo. Ugh! (We need touch less since we raw feed our dog). My DH refuses to chalk it off as a loss at this point, so he has his own little project to focus on. :-)...See MoreFaucet for kitchen remodel
Comments (47)Kathy, I have the same issues. I researched and found for a solution the Ladylux Cafe Ladylux Plus pullout (33737DC0). Hopefully it will be installed within the week. It has a 10-3/8" reach, 12-5/8", and 10-9/16" from spout to top of sink. I found really good reviews for it. It may be the faucet (or discontinued version) that Oaktown has (see msg above). And as stated, it is not elegant looking but I am hoping will be a back saver. The reason I got the discontinued version is that I wanted the handle to move forward and backward from vertical instead of up and down from horizontal. I plan to put the handle in front to make it more accessible as well as for any dripping from wet hands to be into the sink rather than on the counter. Edit: Flow rate on discontinued one is 2.2gpm. I bought it new on ebay. Looks like current version has max flow rate of 1.75gpm. Specs for current Ladylux Cafe pullout Specs fo my discontinued Ladylux...See MoreLaura Clark
