Recycled Organic Living Soil (ROLS) and No Till Thread

[Mohican]

When we moved in the people here before had a few cats. After about six months our back yard was overrun with crickets. The cats had eaten all of the lizards. Now our yard has lizards the size of snakes and we also have praying mantises. We had a pet praying mantis we got on a wreath from Oregon. It was a very cold winter so I brought her in every night and fed her crickets. The children were fascinated. The mantis would pick up a cricket and eat its head!

In the morning I would put her back outside in the rose garden. Every night she would be back on the front door waiting for me to bring her in. She got very fat and then skinny again. This went on for about a month and then she died. A few weeks later I noticed the egg sack on the door. That spring we had little baby mantises everywhere and we have been getting them ever since. I found a few last year, one was on the Mulanje in the compost pile.

Hope you don't get a perm in that thing

to me the worst is when you have spider mites and webs. Yet there is zero damage to the plant since they have strong genetics. The spider mites wont leave regardless of what you use.. except for lady bugs. its just annoying... to deal with. not as frustrating as them eating your plants. I think I'm going to add a venus fly trap for the the crickets. I see one at least twice a week. My cat sometimes kills the crickets.....

That's why I must use neem cake top dressed and oil for foliar. I wouldn't care if they weren't munching. Venus fly traps would make a hell of a living mulch! I remember May saying he tried the pepper method on mites, and he's still fighting em. Doesn't rosemary or lavender deter them?

lavender and peppermint work. I haven't tried rosemary. Lady bugs work the best imo

I can't stand when those cocky bastards swarm you like it's there turf. I've knocked over solos, bumped my head on filters, burned myself on bulbs...all while swatting or chasing the damn things. I despise them so much, I smoke there dead bodies!

Oh good I am not the only one to make an ass of myself swatting after those bastards!

Nice,.. bored thought I poke some fun at our Ginger!...

I heard this from a little birdie...

Why did God make Gingers? So those hating each other in the middle east could agree on hating something more egregious then each other.
Apparently the Ginger was too WHITE and blinded each side in the middle east and infuriated more hostilities toward each other, but however when the sign of the great white Ginger appeared in the heavens...

A Voice could be heard saying...

What is a good foliar spray to help my veg plants grow faster. They are growing at a real slow rate? Would a potassium silicate and aloe juice be best?

 

[RedCarpetMatches]

Why did I pick this username lol.

Fart, you can use kelp, aloe, alfalfa, ProTekt/Agisil, and many other ingredients listed on first page. Sometimes it's the grower or genetics. Pics?
