Peach spray routine - help?
Comments (0)I have 2 peach trees. Getting a crop is hit or miss in my part of Kansas. This year my trees are loaded with baby peaches, so I am hopeful to have a good harvest this year. Now that I've made it to the baby peach stage, my next concern is how to keep the critters out of them. What is the best plan of attack for a home gardener? What to use, and how often? The little worms that eat their way to the pit are the things that I seem to fight. I think these things are the plum curculio...maybe....See MoreTell me your fertilization routine
Comments (11)if you want to invest longterm "feed" the soil, like NHBas suggested. -- guessed 3/4 of all products of fertilizer can be skipped, around here they sell: Tomato fert herb fert box fert veggie fert ... a soil test could be good, just to make sure you are / your soil is in some average range. if you use compost and horn stuff that should suffice. iron or some such are often used as last resorts for plants that are nor suitable for a particular site and grow poorly permanently --- alfalfa pellets (with no stuff added), a horse feed, is good stuff as well. cocoa shells (bad for dogs) wool pellets --- if you avoid moneral fertilizer your microbes will thrive and those mine nutrients from the soil, even phosphate and release it when they die, than the plant can get it. rules of thumb (which work for me, Europe, z7, soil a nice loam) no fert/ compost for lvender, Thyme, Rosemary (sub-shrubs) very little fert (cow manure-pellets), but mulch (shredded hemp) for hardy perennials like cranesbill, perennial sunflower, daylily lots of mulch, some manure for roses, clematis, kiwi, berries (less manure), tall Dahlias --- hardly ever use lime --- sprinkle mineral K-fertilizer about every other year, did not find an organic source for that. if you could specify your aims/ plant that would help...See MoreYour grocery shopping routine
Comments (42)Depends on the sales and where I'm at in the larder. I live between 2 Meijers farther away and have a small local grocery store closer to home. I am more often hitting the local store, maybe every week to every other week... the Meijers maybe as quick as 2-3 weeks, sometimes more like 4-6 weeks. My larder and kitchen pantry is hitting the capacity I want to be at for being stocked through the winter, so that shopping will drop off to maybe going out even to the small local store more of a 4-6 week thing by the end of October. I'm even stocked up on small propane for the camp burners- I usually forget till I almost run out, lol. The local pharmacy happened to have a bunch on clearance for super cheap a couple weeks back :) It can depend on fresh produce and fresh dairy need too. I just signed up for Misfits and am curious about trying Imperfect Foods... so will see how that goes. And we got a nice new dollar store up on the corner. Around here up on the corner means more like somewhere within a half mile from home, lol. I'm a prepper- sometimes we can get snowed in for days, or lose power. Often I'm just too busy doing stuff to spend the hours to go do shopping rounds. So I'm always in the habit of keeping ahead all year round. Been shopping like this for years, this isn't a new hoarder or C-19 practice for me. This year I'm doing extra because I'm still recouping from some illness and injuries and just want to limit my time spent out as much as possible this winter if I can. And I don't want to depend on Thanksgiving and Christmas sales this year- I'll still probably pick up my pair of turkeys and a Christmas ham if the supply and sales are good. But with some of the supply issues going on I'm trying to skip planning for those as much as I can. If I can do it now, that means I can leave it on the shelf for others because I know darn well they well need it then....See MoreGood fitness routine?
Comments (46)Having a trainer that specializes in seniors might be a good idea. Youtube also has lots of videos for balance exercises for seniors. I saw this one in the search. I didn't view it, but you might want to take a look and see if any on there would fit the bill. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=atMJ2opvCvo&ab_channel=Bob%26Brad...See MoreOklaMoni
