My trees are tired of this weather! As well as I . How about you?
Comments (52)Hi Mike and everyone, Been away awhile, but badly needed a Citrus Forum "fix" during this historic winter! When I checked in, the first post I saw was a "name this pest" sort of question, and I said "That's CLM!" Lol, when I first came to this forum, I didn't know what a kumquat was...or a perched water table. This is a great place.... The rosemary oil is great! I have a key lime that the spider mites just won't give up the ship though. Even so, their occasional attempts to re-appear are feeble at best :-). I love the rosemary oil aroma, and I'm not concerned about spraying it in the house during winter if that became necessary. If you remember, I tried never putting my trees outside and it's been working for me, so far. SO....More snow on the way! I always said what "sold" me on citrus was seeing a ripe kishu mandarin hanging on my own tree, in my own window with snowdrifts in the background. Wow, I was sold! And sounds like I'll be re-creating that image with a key lime on Monday... Regards, Mary...See MoreBoy, I'm tired!
Comments (6)I hear you! Before we got our 10 acres, suburban gardening season was much shorter. Now, with property, it seems there is always more to do than I can keep up with. Besides gardens, which I have always done, I now have a blueberry patch and a new orchard + the mowing, wood splitting and other chores. Sometimes I am so busy with gardens and market that I barely have time or energy to preserve my own harvest! I really could use all the labor saving tips I can find. I can usually keep up with weeding until Blueberry harvest in July but once harvesting begins, I lose the war on weeds. This year, my garden ended early, and I just didn't have the energy to keep up with the bugs and weeds, so I just let the rest of it go. Fall becomes my favorite time of year -- when I can finally relax -- that is after tilling things under, planting garlic, chopping wood, mowing and sucking up leaves for mulch etc etc... By January I am usually getting ready to start seeds and begin the whole process over again....See MoreBoy, do I feel lazy now!!
Comments (2)Yeah, it's possible. We had a 95 year old admitted to our ICU with a broken leg ... he was hitching a halfbroke mule to a plow and it ran him down. I went in to get lab work, and the guy in that ICU space sure didn't look 95 to me. I'd have thought he was early 60s at the latest. The muscle testing and bone density scans put him at the average for men in their early 30s, and WAY ahead of almost anyone over 40. On testing, mnay of his children were well above average for their age groups (he had children scattered from 30s to 70s ... he had been quite a womanizer in his youth, and had buried a couple of wives). He drank in moderation, smoked an occasional pipe of home-grown tobacco, had a diet that would have killed a less active person (pure Southern salt and cholestreol), but he also had a great family, a doting wife in her mid 60s (they married when he was in his 50s and she in her 20s), farmed his own little farm, went to church weekly ... and was a vrey physically active person. He had just never slowe down because he thought he had to....See MoreFinally I've LetGo and Told My Husband It's Now His Job
