Just about done mulching a season's worth of leaves!
Comments (10)It seems to me that mulch mowing the leaves would provide more of a benefit than spreading leaf compost. Am I thinking right? It seems to me that the activity of decomposing the leaves is as needed all over the lawn as the resulting "food" of the decomposed leaves. I'm trying to think this one through as we're really only just getting started on leaf season here. I've been wondering about creating a huge compost pile of leaves, but decided I'd rather have the herd of decomposers all over the yard as opposed to just one pile. I have been taking some leaves and creating piles in my dog's past and present mining operations. If she leaves them there, they'll compost in place. If she digs them, at least she'll be spreading them out on the lawn....See MoreNew leaves at the end of growing season?
Comments (2)Hello, You might try a grow mat (seed mat?) to give some good bottom heat through the winter so those roots can continue to develop. Try getting them close to a window with lots of sun would be good if you can manage it as well! :) Good luck, let us know how it goes!

Comments (10)I'm always ready. Alicia made me paranoid as hell! I KNEW the house was going to blow away any second. For years everyone laughed at me and my evacuation paranoia, then came Katrina and Rita. Of course, I still don't know why people in Sugarland and Huntsville ran off, that's where we GO! And some idiot from the USMS, said on Good Morning America last week, part of the problem was people going so far, that you didn't need to evacuate to Dallas! Well, duh! Like we WANTED to? There were no hotels, no campgrounds, no restaurants, grocery stores, gas stations, etc. open so you had NO choice! My plan is like always, if we get enough notice then run away. If we don't then hunker down and hope for the best. I have enough food for a month, us and the animals, lots of water containers to be filled, emergency lighting, medical supplies, wind up radio,extra film, extra bullets, etc. Off to buy a generator tomorrow. We have the boards all cut for the windows. The chain saws are sharpened. Alicia was a cold front on Monday, a tropical depression on Tuesday, tropical storm on Wednesday, on Friday we got hit with a category 2 or 3(the controversy rages) and it was NOT ever predicted to hit Galveston or to grow as large as it did. So evacuating is not always an option. Rita and Katrina were rare in that we had about 5 days to watch and prepare. In the Gulf we breed our own storms and sometimes, like Alicia, there is less than 24 hours notice. Tally HO!...See MoreSurvivor Reminder - Season 30!
Comments (26)I agree with you Jasdip, navy doc doesn't seem too happy. I was impressed with rest of the first time daters in how they played the game. On Survivor I was thrilled So left, couldn't happen to a better person! Hopefully her employer watched the show and saw the real So. And let's hope the employees she made cry got some satisfaction watching her torch extinguished! Eeeewww, Vince/Fabio was beyond creepy. I don't know what his intended game is with the ladies, but it's uncomfortable to watch him. Rooting for Carolyn!!...See More- 5 years ago
