They are pretty bitter. I don't like them which means no one else in my family will eat them. The chickens wont even eat the leaves. I realized it wasn't super cold tolerant when I bought it but we had a warmer winter and it still died way back, looks ugly right now. Cutting it back every winter...
we actually got some almonds on our all in one this year, pretty exciting. I'm thinking of cutting down and removing the Moringa tree since I'll never end up eating anything off of it. More space.
That's awesome. I went to the class the night before on grafting, it was packed but i learned a few new things. They mentioned the sale the next day but I had to work. It was my first time there and it looked like they had all sorts of cool plant growing with their labels but it was to dark to...
X2. A sting by a carpenter bee is very very rare, even when provoked. Speaking of bees, they seem to have found the blossoms on all my fruit trees. I even viewed an africanized one on the hood pear.
I just go with the zemectrin gold for the tape worms. Its only one dose and I figure if your giving them chemicals its better once over 2 maybe 3 times and a shorter withdraw period. Dawg was the one I believed that suggested it when someone asked what to do after three treatments of the...
Was your tree putting on blossoms? If it was it's not a tree problem but a pollinating problem. Mine put on hundreds of blossoms and did nothing until the bees found it. If it's not putting on blossoms( which I doubt it will now that it's cooler) It's most likely a nutrition problem. Phosphorus...
No idiots or stupid people here either, just officers with nothing better to do then try and track down which houses are shooting fireworks. Wouldn't want a fire to start while it's RAINING. Makes as much sense as no burn days, speaking of which is it one today? If so I need to go get some meat...
Ug, I for see a lot of burst pipes in the immediate future. My moringa tree isn't looking so good and my tomatoes/ squash are barely hanging on but other than that things are good. Had to finally turn the heater on to bring the temperature in the house back in the 60's, that's rare. Where do we...
Sounds like a good deal, I almost went this route but was afraid of the quality the boxes might turn out to be. Looks like this is better though. I ended up making the hive and and frames and just bought some rite cell to go into the frames. Placed the hive at my MIL house after long debates 2...
Rosie just gave a shout out for the tour de coup event. Problem is they advertised it as a bicycling tour. Ha, good luck with that. There's guys are even dumber than I give them credit for.
That is a lot for those 5 gallon trees, I wonder why he is starting the price that high? He will come down in price when you let him know you've seen them for cheaper at so and so place. Kinda the fun of going to him instead of a regular nursery. The most I've ever payed was $38 there. I've...
If your interested, Tropical Mango in Apache Junction has all sorts of rare fruit trees and the owner/caretaker is one of the few people in those situations that I actually believe what he says. There is also a Shamus Oleary(sp) on face book based out of Phx that does the same. Never been there...
Chill hours can be tweeked. A low variety will obviously do better but with proper fertilization you can get away with higher chill hour varieties. We are told here in the valley that we get less than 300 a winter but I've got varieties that require 500 and do just fine. I've also been told by...
It's amazing how fast they grow. Last winter I brought mine in during the cold nights at 2' tall and finally planted it in the spring. It's currently 15' tall. Went from 2' to 15' in 8 months. Gallo let me know how your nemetoads do, did you decide against the drench? I've changed my mind about...
Yes X2. So many of our plants go without the proper nutrition to produce like they should. If one decides to go all organic keep in mind that you will have to stay on top of it.
