Tufa Jack-o-lantern for Halloween
Comments (3)Haha, I was planning on doing this same thing last night, hence why I am on this side of the forum now. Though I would have gone with a much more SCARY look, but I guess that's me. I was also debating on putting both inside & outside some sort of creepy lighting effect....See MoreVertical trellising options for Jack 'o Lantern vumpkin vine
Comments (2)Thanks trev, I'm going to check out netting today. I probably should do all four sides and circle the vine back down the net. Then make cloth hammocks for growing fruit of course. Thanks again! Any other opinions are still welcome....See MoreJack-O-Lantern's safe for worms?
Comments (10)Whoa..pesticides on banana peels. This is the first time I have ever heard mention of pesticides from store bought products possibly being harmful to their worms. But Tracy is right. Other than organically sold produce, most fruits and vegetables sold in grocery stores have some pesticide residue. I have seen lists posted of the foods which are highest in pesticides and for that very reason I organic garden. However, I have used banana peelings because I never saw these on any of those lists. Now I have to give that some thought. I never use grass from chemically treated lawns in my outdoor compost bins, and I have been involved in several lengthy discussions about chemicals feed to cows and horses, and what effect they might have on composting their manures. But this is the first time I have come across a posting that suggests pesticides from grocery purchased produce might have an effect on worms or vermicomposting. I had to stop and give that one some thought. Althought Tracy's main concern here is for the worms,I had to go one step further. I vermicompost for three reasons: (1) using the spent media in gardening projects; and (2) using some of the worms in my garden; (3) feeding worms to my fish. Tracy's question made me stop and think what effect these pesticides may be having indirectly on the food from my garden, and the worms which I feed to my fish. I think much would depend on the type of pesticide which were used and how long the residual pesticide would remain in the environment. But from now on you can bet I will be rinsing the banana peels prior to blending them for my indoor compost bins. I think the rule of thumb is fifteen seconds....See MoreJack-o-Lantern Snowflakes
