MOB rants

I I have a neighbor across the street that blows all his grass clippings in the middle of the street and creates such a mess .there is nothing that can be done about it . How rude is that,I think next week when he cuts his grass I have to blow it back to his curb.

Hi all,I too shot archery and also sporting clays .I was raised to respect nature ,but here in america I believe the gun rights are to protect us from the goverment of having to much power. we could go back in history and see how easy it is for that to happen I want to believe that everyone is pure of heart. It does seem that criminals have more rights than law abiding folks.I grew up in a house where shot guns were in plain sight.not once did it ever enter our minds to ever touch one. Hollywood has a hand in some of this madness maybe they should start making some films that are less violent ,but that would not be good for there wallets.

hi palaisglide, I live in n.y and I pay 400.00 dollars a month for oil and my electric bill is 300.00 per month. I think the politicians are all getting a one up on us all.There is noooo cheap energy here,the gasoline is cheaper ,but i dont drive.I am also very sorry about  the incident that took place in london.I think the world has gone crazy. What has happened to humanity?.If all had to tend to a garden to eat they might have less time to do such nasty deeds.Talk about biting the hand that feeds you.

Meconopsis- blue poppy - lingholm. Bareroot hostas

I have grown meconopsis from seed. I placed the seeds in a seed tray with seed starter mix in a plastic bag in the frig .when it germinated,I then planted it in a woodland part of the garden.

Those wonderful blue salvias

Potatoes in bags

I have planted my potatoes today .I planted in a large sturdy card board box .I put a mix of compost and leaf mold in the box put in chitted potatoes and covered with the rest of the mix about 3 inches deep and if it is to cold tonight ,I plan to fold over the flaps and cover with a fleece.I hope this works never done this before It does get down to about 3c at night here ,I was going to try growing in straw ,but with the wind we get it would be a mess.

Garlic Shoots

Hi all, the scape is the curly shoot of the galic plant that is thicker than the leaves and if not cut off forms a flower.when you cut the scape off you send the energy to the bulb and get bigger garlic.Ta debra
