thank you for all the replies.... Is it too late to start tomato plants from seed???? I usually plant them in the garden memorial day weekend. Is there still time?? I dont have anything to grow them in the house, i would have to go buy stuff. Ive heard that you can grow plants under LED...

You are franticly running around the house at 10:45 pm looking for sheets, pillow cases, blankets, anything to cover your flowers when there is a freeze warning out for tonight!!! I even ripped the blanket off my sleeping hubby on the couch and said... Sorry hun, the flowers need it more than...

Hmmm,describe my soil. Its kinda hard, clumpy, not many earthworms that ive seen. Its not poor quality,but isnt the best quality either i dont think. Its not sandy at all either. But its not clay. I can get as much manure as i need. The guy still has tons left. Im assuming its manure mixed with...

I was thinking of getting some Free Aged horse manure from a guy I found on Craigslist. He said he has some that is aged up to 5 years and then some that is 3 and 1. So, im assuming the 5 yr stuff is going to be almost like dirt by now. I was wondering how much to put on my garden and if i...

So i have a few questions on tomatoes... First- Any suggestions for good producers for northern climates? I live in WI. Second- I usually plant seedlings that i purchased around the end of May here. I was thinking of starting them in my cold frame this year from seed and seeing how i do. Any...

It was clostridium- ill almost guarantee it.

Was the calf bloated??? If it was then it probably was clostridium. We have problems with that at the dairy i work at. The strongest, healthiest calves get it. In a matter of hours they can be deader than a door nail... and will have been perfectly fine before that. If she was bloated and her...

Dont have any time to post now but will later... just wanted to say I am just about dieing from laughter about the duct tape!!!:lol: Especially cuz when I was a kid we used to tie my brother up to the tree with Duct tape while my mom was at work.... We were such good babysitters!!!:D:D:D

Yes, you heard me correct. As redneck as it sounds i have a 16 month old son who is ALL OVER THE PLACE right now and i cant take my eye off of him for 2 seconds.... literally... problem is, i work outside alot from now until fall in my garden, flower bed, etc. and Im not sure how the heck im...

thanks for all the replys... I did look at some house plan sites and found a few I really liked. But was kinda shocked at the pricing for my area compared to if we would build it in another state or area. Yikes!!! there was one that was 1510 sq ft real simple, but with no garage in the cost...

He does work on base, but he's not active duty. its complicated (as is the Army...) they are usually the smaller bases that the jobs are on, but we havent found one in a rural spot yet. There was one in Saint Louis, MO but im not all for Gangs and violence!!! Im a country person, it scares me a...

yes, we want mostly the same thing. He wants woods, land, big garage, outdoor space. I want land, barns, garden space, flower space, orchard space, and a rootcellar and garden shed. He doesnt much care for homesteading in the way of animals, etc. He grew up on a farm as did I, but he doesnt have...

i know, we have tried having him find another job, but its tough. He is slightly higher up in the rank and most of the jobs available in other states are lower ranking.(he's military, but his civilian job is also thru the military) He applied for one in Iowa and Ohio, but didnt get it. And they...

So my DH and I have been looking to buy a Country property for about a year or two now. We have hesitated putting our house on the market because we currently have no place to go and in that 2 yrs have looked at probably 30 houses and there was maybe 2 that we wouldve considered buying...

When i read your post i thought..... you should be charging MORE for free-range eggs,not less. In my part of the woods, Organic free range eggs go anywhere from $3-5/dozen depending. If they arent100% free range or100% organic then maybe $2.00 at the lowest. I get eggs from 2 different ladies...

Good luck with that one :D:D:D My DH has "promised" he would quit smoking for years now. It hasnt happened, and now its twice as much cuz the price went up. I dont think the price increase detured anyone from smoking like they thought it would do unfortunetly. Being an ex-smoker myself (quit 6...

Tax appt is on Monday but it should be in the ball park of 7000. Most years we get about 1000 back, but we are claiming the rest of our Adoption tax credit this year, so im happy about that. Since we are 1 month away from paying off ALL of our debt, and we have to paperfile, by the time we get...

Well, at least i think that's what its called. Worm "farming" is what im getting at. I am starting to grow wheatgrass and in my wheatgrass book is says taht a relatively easy way to compost the "used" wheatgrass mats was to get a garbage can, put it up on bricks, drill air holes in it, and then...

What do you all juice?? I haven't started growing my wheatgrass yet and have been using my wheatgrass juicer for juicing other things. So far i have done, Carrots, Beets, Spinach, Green Apples and Red Apples. What else is there?? I want to grow some Kale too. Other than that, what...

Do you have any health insurance??? when my wisdom teeth were causing problems, my health insurance covered them to be taken out because they were still in there. If they are all the way out it goes on dental insurance, but if they are in, i would check with the doctor if you have health...
