I thought I'd put up some pics of my garden. Last spring was a bust with little hamster/gerbil/prairie dog things eating all of my tomatoes. The cats seem to have wiped them out over the summer…Continue

Randy replied to Jon Ray's discussion Hydroponics are a BUST!
"I'm thinking that your water got too hot to hold oxygen and your roots died. Using hydroponics outdoors here, one might want to stay away from deep water culture systems because of the heat issue. You might need to use a chiller to cool your…"

"Hey Chris, Thanks for the very informative post. Sorry I came off as a bit of a jerk in my previous post, but it's ok, cause I was being kind of a jerk. Just wanted to get some clarification of population reduction. I did read your other posts,…"
Randy replied to Treasa's discussion processing chickens (sending them to freezer land)
"Unless you're ready to do thousands of chickens, (but that would defeat the purpose of this topic)it's probably not worth it. The whole permit/licensing/inspection thing is weighted to the big chicken houses. The small guy has to jump…"

"Well, what do you suggest then?
I assumed when you mentioned that 'population reduction' was the solution that you were speaking of some type of poison. How else is it possible to 'reduce the population'?
Can we stop saying…"

Giving up my chickens
My daughter got 6 hens and a rooster a while back. Now she's moved away and I've been taking care of the birds, but really don't want to anymore. I'm not an egg eater so their eggs just go to waste. They're friendly enough and I like them, just have no use for them. I'm in Casa Grande. Hopefully someone lives down here and will take them. FREE to a good home.See More

Randy replied to Janice Williamson's discussion Red Worms supplemental feedings
"Janice, Janice, that's such a nice garden. Makes me want to go get my shovel and turn my whole garden under. My tomatoes are so ashamed. Great job. I love the screen. That's got to really extend your season into the hot times."

QuebecGirl commented on Randy's blog post I finally built an herb spiral
"I had 2 bunches of lemon thyme, one in full sun (in a containter) and the other one partial only. The full sun one died and the partial one is on his way out now :( Pretty plant, smells nice but the weather here might be a bit harsh."

I finally built an herb spiral
I've been talking about it for a while. Looked up all 4 pictures on the internet of other peeps herb spirals and thought i could do that. I've got some nice rocks I gathered from near or on various mountains* and took lots of pics of the build. I posted it on another forum, but I had the mod delete the thread for lack of interest.
Maybe some folks around here will appreciate it more.
Since this is my blog though, it really doesn't matter here. I'll post them for my own… Continue
