That is 1 thing I have not tried...sounds safer than me holding a lit fire torch. Lol I will give it a try. I have one of those floor steamer gadgets, a Shark something...

My 3 experiences with glass tables... 1) My 1st house in the 80s I saw a set, black metal bottoms with glass tops, 1 coffee table & 2 end tables, all for $99. They looked great with the new sofa. I can't tell ya how many times I ran into a coffee table corner though, cuz I couldn't see the darn...

This 2 acres is full of yellow & purple nutsedges, plus Bermuda & Johnsongrass & other grasses I have no idea what are called. So annoying! They like to creep & choke out everything else.

Are you talking about the one with yellow or white flowers? The yellow flowered one, I don't think we have it here in the mid Atlantic but I could be wrong. We have so many weeds with yellow flowers. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gutierrezia_sarothrae...

I guess my chickens are spoiled, they only go for the chick weed.

Darn nutsedge has the double whammy...spreading bulbs under the ground... And the darn seeds spread by the wind

Add: Nutsedges Bermuda grass Johnsongrass

Ditto. The gravel driveway is about 400 feet long. Tried vinegar, salt, Dawn & then an Orange oil but nutsedges, Bermuda grass & Johnsongrass still thrive. They may turn brown & appear dead but they resprout.

Just talked to DH about a garden weed torch. He said yeah but make sure not right up against wood bldg & always do a 30 min fire watch after finishing as something could smolder. He knows I'm talking about the darn nutsedge balls, clumps of them so thick you can see them right there at the top...

I see your indoor gardening area is top of your washing machine in laundry room. I've been known to use the kitchen floor (potting soil on vinyl floor is ez to sweep up), the bathroom tub & the bathroom counter top. 😆 DH hasn't said a word about it, but I heard him mumble low, something about...

Lot next door has 3 gigantic Mimosas. The Hummingbirds like the fragrant flowers but those seeds are a real PITA. Yes, those little things spring up Everywhere. The neighbor let one grow up, so now I'm flanked on both sides. You wouldn't believe how many buckets of those seeds I pick up every...

Oh my tastebuds are crying right now! They look awesome!!! 😍

I'm planting alot of Sunflowers! 🌻 🌻 🌻

We are working Sat & Sun but we really need to get the rabbit deterring, deer netting fence up, hopefully Monday, so we can get seedlings out to the garden! (Where did May go? Time flies!) The last Brussel sprout still clings to life. The rest are various types of tomatoes. Mother Goose &...

I've read where minerals can purge a person's body of toxins. Exactly what toxins & how many of what minerals to take...I really do not know the exact science. I've read that planting certain ground cover crops can improve soil while also eradicating certain weeds. Do they help with toxins...

Exactly...it rains, water carries stuff, the darn chemicals are basically percolated on down & carried, like a coffee maker percolates coffee. I think about everything trying to grow & the well water... Ya know, I've seen generic water quality tests at Home Depot. They need to make a water test...

It's really very sad. Ya know, I relocated here so at least since I've been here, no chemicals have been used here. I've waged war on weeds with vinegar, unsuccessfully, but at least I try, right? There is no way of knowing what's been used here prior to my arrival, though. I did get a chance to...

Fig tree in the chicken run? That sounds like a cool idea. I've had fig trees in the past, that did get huge. My chicken runs are enclosed so a fig would need to be pruned to only reach a certain height. As far as growing one...no doubt I'd need to block it off from the chickens at 1st, to give...

Round up...what is sad is that you can do your best to make your own slice of land as chemical free as possible, but then right next door they can be spraying that crap. I have a neighbor that sprays down the entire side where our properties meet, as they put a fence in & that's how they address...

We've got a synergy relationship with foxes, too. The foxes go after rodents, voles, moles, rats & leave our chickens, Guineas & pigeons alone. A neighbor has fed the foxes ongoing. I just talk to them & they always liked hanging out in the far corner of my yard where they sunbathe. They always...
