    What did you do in the garden today?

    I forgot to add that it's the same deal with onions. The layers of the onion bulb are specialized leaves, so they like nitrogen too. Same here! 4 out of about 20. :barnieI'm going to replant some in a few days.

    What did you do in the garden today?

    I gave my garlic a sprinkling of blood meal because: It's nitrogen, and I had a bag of it that I'd forgotten about. My garlic is looking pretty darn good! Above ground anyway. We'll see what I dig up in a few weeks.

    Glyphosate in Chicken Feed- Should I be concerned or not?

    One of my personal mantras: Do the best I can with what I have where I am. That goes for what I eat, what my chickens eat, what my dog eats. (Hubby makes his own decisions.) As @U_Stormcrow says, I'm not getting out of here alive, but I'd like to have a smile on my face when I wave goodbye.

    What did you do in the garden today?

    My spinach is bolting. I'm probably going to pull it soon (here, chickens!) and plant some more green beans where it was. We are getting some much needed rain! Thank you, thank you, thank you, Mother Nature! :love:clap

    What did you do in the garden today?

    Garlic likes nitrogen. The bulb is actually specialized leaves, so think of fertilizing it as if it were greens.

    Question of the Day - Saturday, June 1st, 2024

    I give people I know/want to text or talk to their own text/ring tone. Anything else is the generic one. Hubby is the only one who has a different text and ring tone. I want to know immediately if he's calling me, because he only calls if it's urgent.

    Your 2024 Garden

    Unfortunately, the part that is too small is the hose adapter, not the fitting on the IBC. @Smokerbill, I'm going to measure what size the fitting is, and compare it to the info you linked. Thanks! I can continue to do what I've done for two summers, which is to fill a bucket from the IBC...

    The Honey Factory

    Thanks. We have brambles in bloom right now. Wild rose, black raspberries, blackberries. I'm not sure what's blooming next. Hubby really wants honey this year. Me too. I hope I've bought my last gallon of honey from my "bee guy."

    The Honey Factory

    We haven't used much smoke, but usually take it with us, just in case. Tomorrow, we are going to remove the Apivar we put in 8 weeks ago. Hubby wants to put on QEs and honey supers. I'll order some Formic Pro for mite treatment later in the season. Here's the thing... the supers are brand new...

    BYC Café

    I've been using it a lot more in the past few months. My legs and arms are in the best shape ever in my life. I would never have guessed that my legs would be in better shape at 62 than at 22.

    Question of the Day - Wednesday, May 29th, 2024

    Dang, how'd I miss this question? This is my kind of question! Even! I would ALWAYS put 2 ice cubes in my iced tea glass. I do like a few odd numbers, but just a few. Sometimes, I feel badly for the capital letter B. It looks a bit like the number 13.

    Question of the Day - Friday, May 31st, 2024

    Beethoven!!! And Brahms, Tchaikovsky, and so many more, but we'll stop there. If I list them all, I'll miss one, and then I'd feel bad. But Beethoven gets the nod for favorite.
