WANTED: Swap-a-Que - October 19th - swap list #2
Comments (150)Hey everyone, I will not be able to come to the swap this weekend. I just got back from the vet and my doggie is not doing so well...apparently her spine is degenerating....anyway I can't leave her alone all day. For anyone that I was trading with I'm very sorry but hopefully I will make it to the next swap. If anyone is in the Miami area or passing through and would like to pick up their plants I am available and we can make a bar-b-que out of it....See MoreSummer Garden Update: July 19, 2011
Comments (15)Jammie, Eggplants need one third of the water rest of the summer vegetables. I am planning build PVC lines to each bed and connect them with one soaker hose per 16ft bed. Our raised beds and trellies run east-west. Lukcy is one of the nicest and very intelligent cats I ever had. Bettycbowen, I stated these grapes after my visit to Central Asia, I saw most of the houses in rural Uzbekistan especially in Fergana valley has grapes vines in front and backyards. They ate looks awesome and very tasty. So started them over pergola. Good to know about Linnaeus teaching garden, I did�t know about it, will visit one of my next visit to Tulsa. I saw some of the pics of cattle panel arches, I will build one or two next year for the trelling flowers creepers. Tracydr, We cook with all most all kinds of gourds. Some of the luffas such as sponge and ridge makes one of the best curries and also use them for stuffing, making dosa etc. They usually taste much better than zucchinis. Paula, Some of the credits goes to you too. All your peppers, eggplants, beans are doing great. Yes there is green-light at the end of the tunnel! I may buy Pea sheller based on the how all our peas blooms and set fruits. Fresh peas coup sounds yummy, will try once I get some peas, may be that time I wll ask for the recipes. Please stop at our place any time, you know that all most all our friends ring the bell without any notice! Say hello to Ken, bring him as well. Tom, Thanks, picasa is my one of the most secured archive. I always select some representative pics of each trip and store them there in that way I never loose memories. Picasa charge just 20 for 20GB. I will release of the albums soon. Pat, Thank you, our garden encourage many of the friends start gardening. I hope more and more people start gardening and greening the Oklahoma! I hope mother nature will provide better conditions next year. Thank you all for your kind support. Regards �Chandra...See MoreOpalka Seed from Tom8olvr
Comments (21)This has been an interesting thread. Bill (hoosiercherokee) was the source of my original Opalka seed - I think in 2005. Every year, including 2008, mine have looked like those in Bill's photos. The weather in southern CT this summer was a little wetter than the past 2, but not overly so. The last few I picked shortly before frost do look similar to Tom's. Thanks to advise from Dr. Carolyn several years ago, I spray regularly with Daconil in the early season and have had good luck avoiding blight. (I hope we don't start the silly discussion about Daconil again) We ate a few of the Opalkas in salad, but most of them ended up in salsa and sauce. John A...See MoreCovid-19 Wrong End of Telescope?
Comments (114)I just heard Jacob Ward* on CNN say a few interesting things. 1. That with the case of the woman patient in Northern California, 36 nurses had to be quarantined! That’s a lot of staff missing from duty. 2. That the travel ban is misdirected. (Could you guess that xemophobe Stephen Miller wrote Trump’s speech? “Foreign” Disease.” The Covid-19 virus is here in the US and elsewhere already already. (not sure if rest is from Jake Ward or another good guest) 3. TESTING TESTING TESTING (and no backlogs, please)! Testing allows epidemiologists to learn where our own hotspots are. We need to be able to plan & allocate resources. A few days ago, some expert said that one thing large scale testing for the Covid-19 virus does, is allow pretty good zeroing in on who’s got the virus, where they are. They (epidemiological detectives) can interview patients and use various paper, mobile phones and electronic tracking to help them figure out common trail and sources. (Cue up Forensic File music.) 4. One of the expert guests suggested, depending on how “hot” your area seems to be or likely will be, to postpone elective surgery to free up hospital beds. I guess my surgery is elective ;-/ but I am in significant discomfort/pain. I think it is a go home that day, but light general anesthesia or just put me in a coma. Small joint surgery. Alisande, Isn’t that laparoscopic gb surgery pretty much go home the next day? See what your docs advise. 5. The US has tested only a few hundred and there is a backlog on getting the tests processed. South Korea has tested a few thousand individuals, and weeks ago. The US has handled this situation so very poorly. The virus has exploded in such a short while. Maybe someone has accolades for the CDC leadership (Reddington (spelling), a nodding bobble head. Top leadership has been abysmal. Don’t hold out for a vaccine, even in 18 months. This is a tremendously difficult thing to achieve with a coronavirus. We can attempt to slow the spread, to flatten the curve, but this disease is going to sweep over us. “Social distancing” is one way to help slow things down. It is too late to stomp it out (on this planet anyway). Gird you’re loins, folks. Seniors congregated close together in nursing homes is a perfect set up for lots of very ill and dying citizens. It’s not going to be nice. ”We’re fighting an enemy and we don’t even know where it is,” says Ron Klain, former Obama Ebola czar, speaking of the incredible lack of testing. He also said that when you look at the Johns Hopkins virus map and see no red dots or blobs in an area (day Maine or Gondwanaland), it cannot be interpreted as meaning no Covid-19 there. Rather, it indicates that there has been no testing there. (Returning my tix to Gondwanaland.) * Jacob Ward is excellent. Smart, calm, trained, experienced....See MoreElizabeth
