Yes those are my favorites.Wannabefree said:Well I have the orange ones, and I was just curious. Figured I might as well try them since they were kind enough to sprout for me

I never have, I am sure it'd be good for tomatoes because of the calcium though. Possibly sour'ed for pest mix MAYBE. Im not sure, just speculating. Im tired and am going to roost, have a good evening!Wannabefree said:

They say whey is good for pest control. Molasses and milk for fertilizer. Here's a link

Yeah it'd be worth trying I'm sure. I have never heard of it, but it may work.Wannabefree said:

Well I shipped off eggs and seeds today I got started cutting saplings for bean poles, and am working on getting a load of steel together too. busy busy busy around here. I have about 2 weeks before the bean poles are necessary, but I have a LOT to cut! Plus clearing out some of the undergrowth will be good for the garden considering how much those saplings block out the sunlight! Lunch break...about to boil me some eggs.
Hope everyone is having a good day!
