Yeah, I've never used fertilizer either I just use grass clippings as top mulch.

Banana Fuel and other fertilizers are for lazy people that want small bunches.

No one is lazier than the Federal Government the USDA uses Evergreen Fertilizer and the results are what you'd expect.

Under Curator notes you can see Panama Disease Race #2

Another example with Hawaii.

Hawaiians love to eat rats and would bring them on their long voyages so they could release them on many of the uninhabited Pacific Islands so other travelers had a source of meat.
i really liked the rat thing, my story was true. 30 years going to my friends place this was the first time to see that............ my preferred meat is buffalo......think Ted Montanas serves beefaloe. went there to eat one time; i caused quite a stir. that hamberger, all i tasted was beef. buffalo is sweet tasting, a huge


difference.

nother funny story. everybody thinks that lewis and clark lived off the land, shooting wild game and all that. they actually brought trade items for the indians...........toward the end of meriweather lewis journal he states basicly; we are glad to be home but most of us are not looking forward to eating cow. its a little something nobody wants anybody to know. wasnt wild game he preferred to eat. mel gibson said it the best in the PATRIOT; dog is a fine meal.

the hawiians should have brought over squirrels, they have bigger hind quarters.

They probably can make Rocky Mountain Oysters with a buffalo.

You ever have it?

deer, tastes like like eating 30 egg yolks in one small bite. brains are way to slimy for me. hawg jowls are the bomb. i love lutefisk, cod soaked in lye, norwigan. and the only way to get a good boudan is to go way into louisiana, deep, and find a small country store

the only plantains i have ever eaten is from a big box store. you can have them.

Cuban Red's that are perfectly ripe are awesome. They take a while to grow.
