Re: A Place To Vent
I NEVER intended this thread to be a place for members to bitch about other members. That is so totally against my concept of this site. If it doesn't cease immediately I will simply remove my thread. Then you'll have to do it somewhere else, not under my name.
Thanks for everyone's cooperation.

Re: A Place To Vent
Momma???? lol. btw, I dont even have a treehouse and I didn't put my cap up there. but i know who did. *evil grin*
I dont like commercials either. I have a VCR to DVD converter and it works with HDV and camcorders too. It even works with iphone and ipad and I can use it to upload youtubes too. =D DVRs are better but thats another way.

Re: A Place To Vent
My Basjoo flowere @ four (4) feet tall.
My neighbor still mows part of my yard, and does so with the lowest setting so it looks as scraped up as his yard. I never have time to visit the org because of work and my new homestead. Some arse from the electric company turned his truck around in two rows of my spaghetti squash. My wife bought ONE (1) spaghetti squash, and realized after getting home with it that the crazy thing cost $10.00 !!! This is why I saved the seeds and planted them all over the place. My compost won't hold water anymore. I fell asleep on the couch today, and slept til' after 7:00, so I missed most of my Saturday. There are too many 'New Post' for me to even consider looking at, so I chose one, and leave the rest to pile up. My camera is kaput, so I can neither share the cool things going on in my new place, nor super rotate the pics for HBL Tiny beetles have invaded my tomatoes. I have some things to vent about current global relationships, but Salty said not to. Got a dozen Coronation sussex eggs from a friend, and only one hatched. The weather is so hot, I fear that my Jericho, Grand rapids , Nevada, and Victoria lettuces will bolt before they make it to the hydro. It rained on the wood I salvaged, and warped some of it. Meanwhile, we are still in a drought. A drought with flooding. :P I dug up another batch of P. Lutea for Frank (Bigdog) and they fizzled before I could get them in a box. Wow, nice thread, Howard! I could do this all night. |

Re: A Place To Vent
Also, the armadillos here which were like small VW beetles are now like VW buses complete with roto-tillers in the front, and plows in the rear.

Howard... The volume level of the commercials makes me insane! Bob... We overwintered in our workshop for the first time and after a winter all wrapped up in a plastic tarp and swimming pool solar blanket we opened it all up and found mush. Sooo disapointing but this winter we'll try again in the basement of the old farm house on the property with no plastic covering and see if that works. This photo is last fall of some of them, when we were still full of hope and happiness. I don't have a picture of the mushy result. |

Re: A Place To Vent
Got my chainsaw stuck in a tree. It's still there, like Excalibur.
Spent an hour trying to position my greenhouse frame over my NFT tables, only to decide to use boards with the posts that are already holding it up. Last week I tried to burn the branches, cardboard, and what-not in my compost area. The wind picked up, and I decided to put it out. I sprayed it for 30 minutes. There was no more steam, no more smoke, nothing but a big ol' mud hole. TWO days later, it caught up and burned half my pool area . I lost a lot of grass, all the velutinas, Orinoco, and palms were toasted. My wife called the fire dept, and they used my garden hose to put it out.

Re: A Place To Vent
I agree, spaghetti squash is pretty expensive (and pretty hard to open!). I also planted seeds everywhere. Im not very good with growing edible plants (I think I used to get an average of 10 tomatoes a year before I just gave up trying to care for such ugly plants). Squash is a bit nicer looking and its in an area that needed a ground cover plant, so hopefully it will prove to be an ornamental and an edible!
And Im really hoping for fruit from one of my banans this summer. I was originally thinking my Ice cream banana might get it done, but its been 2 days of 85F heat and the newest leaf is just starting to emerge. My saba and one of my basjoos are VERY competative. I just gave then both plant food today. They are working on one leaf a week! By Late June I might already have 6 foot tall plants (they are about 4 feet tall now). Not really much venting, just a lot of hopes for the yard.
