Jute backing? It's fine. Nothing too nasty there to break down! :) I've got 30 year old carpeting to rip up myself, it'll go right out into the garden when it comes up.
The dirt won't be much of a problem, it would be the breakdown of the backing, what it turns into in your garden soil. We use it in front of the hives, to keep the grass/weeds down, it lasts for quite a while.
This is scaring the bejeebers out of me today. What the heck have they done now? That garbage could waft right up the coast to us here in New England - by air and by sea. I can't believe these idiots are flailing around the way they are down there. How utterly frustrating...
I found it, sorry, my brain isn't working well today (I'm afraid of the Lyme returning, I guess I'd better go to the doctor). I've got a chiro appointment tomorrow, that's kinda on the way to the dairy, I'm going to go pick up a gallon for myself. I need some health food!
ETA I posted this...
All right, I'm going to jump in here. Lyme disease is a deadly disease, it can kill you, I know this because it almost killed me last year.
First of all amoxicillin and penicillin are not effective against it. You need stronger antibiotics to get rid of it. Doxycycline by is effective within...
Ok, it smells nice, and I took a little teeny sip out of the bottom (I've got a spigot). It's still sweet, and there's little swirlies in it. I will wait another three or four days before I taste it again.
I was just at my local health food store, Good Health. I told them that I would no longer buy any Organic Valley products. They had just found a new supplier they were trying out (I'm sorry, I can't remember the name, Farmstead something or other) and were 'test driving' their products; I told...
Are you kidding??!? I've got that book, I wonder why it's so expensive - it's a nice little egg cookbook, nothing spectacular, from what I can see. :hu
Well, I'm finally starting my own kombucha tonight. I made the tea and added the sugar, but it's got to cool down a bit before I put the nice scoby Natalie gave me Sunday - I'm so excited! I can't wait to taste my own brew. I used two large teabags from Harney - they're sun tea bags, I figure...
They will get much less 'welcoming' when they're guarding a full load of honey. I really don't think they recognize us, some hives are more aggressive than others, some bees more aggressive or gently. You can basically pat the bees in the apiary up in Maine, they're New World Carniolans, and...
I am logged into all of the forums all of the time - I never sign out; and I use the same user name across the boards. It's a simple click to go to BYH to post in the rabbit section ( I'm just talking about the simplicity of clicking and posting, not the lack of response). I agree that the...
