In New England, what is a good time to sow fall peas?
Comments (10)prairiemoon2, Most seeds prefer to germinate in warm conditions even if they are cool weather crops as you can see in this table: Depending on what county you are in, you can use the extension information on planting dates from a state adjacent to you with a similar hardiness zone. Which county are you in? If you are in the western third of the state, you can utilize Vermont and/or New Hampshire. If you are in the middle third, you can utilize New Hampshire and/or Connecticut. If you are in the eastern third you can utilize Connecticut and/or Rhode Island. Usually you can check with your state's Extension Service. Each county should have it's own Cooperative Extension Office which provides free publications and information for the asking. They will have valuable vegetable/gardening tables available specifically for your area determined by universities and horticultural research scientists who have collected data from growing those crops in your state. Your tax dollars are already paying for this service so you may as well get some use out of it. Vegetable Planting and Planning Calendar for Missouri (download the pdf) complete with spring and fall planting dates (underneath the spring planting dates for appropriate crops), how much to plant per person, etc. They can also tell you the average last frost date for your area and ideal planting times for specific crops and varieties in your area.

Comments (10)I would guess that the quality of the Deeres and the Husqy's are roughly equal if your looking at box store units - and if your looking at box store stuff then you might as well start looking at Sears as well. I think their all "roughly" equal in build quality (according to pricing). If your looking for a a quality deere for the kids - then try and find them an older model (like yours) that was built for the long haul. If the kids dont recognize the quality issue - then let them buy their first junker from the box store - and in 3 years they will eventually come back asking for your advice the second time around. Another thing that has popped up is the lower end X300s seem to have the low end tranny in them - so for the extra money - im not really sure their worth it, one overweight person was complaining the 300 didnt have enough guts to get him up the hill in his yard... Thats pretty lame for a new machine... Of course there are the other issue such as how will the kids use (and treat) this equipment ... Dave...See More2-wheel gravely, good deal? Time's short
Comments (11)The word "custom" means the model it is. Gravely called them "Custom Convertables" for the manual start machine and "Super Convertable" for the electric start machine. His ad is wrong. He calls it a custom convertable but the machine has electric start, which would make it a super convertable. The machine either has the wrong hood on it or he or someone added electric start at some point and they never changed the hood. The only way to know is by the serial number. That deck is a Gravely mowing deck. It's their 40" commercial deck which by the way is not a brush hog. He is naming it wrong. It's for cutting grass, which it does an excellent job. The 30" rotary with the knife blade is the brush hog. - Kris...See More7/17/10 2 new ones and a very good shot
