Septiembre 2004, 08:26:53 Asunto: Re: Compost funnily enough...they say that Human waste is even better than horse manure....
I think it is Japan or maybe china where they recycle all human waste into their vegie patches..LOLOL This is a reason I dont eat chinese food from restaurants....cook me own, or rather my wife does HAHAHAHAHA 9. Septiembre 2004, 13:23:49 Asunto: Re: Compost etc  We compost everything possible, emptying it into a homemade compost bin and covered with an old carpet. The carpet serves two purposes: one extra heat, two cats like sitting on it and so deter rats etc. Incidentally apparently its unwise to compost either apples or parsnips as both are favoured by rats.
As for garlic, planted randomly amongst lettuces etc it helps deter rabbits. French marigolds help with aphids as does a plant nicknamed Fried Egg Plant (I don't remember its proper name) 9. Septiembre 2004, 19:19:38 Asunto: Re: Compost etc  I would like to know how you made your compost bin Nirvana..I have a corner in my back yard that would be perfect for one. Don't know a thing about starting one. 9. Septiembre 2004, 19:22:01 Asunto: Oak Tree! I have an oak tree that has something wrong with it and I don't have a clue what to spray it with. Some of the leaves look opaque but the vien is still green. My first thought was bag worms but that isn't the case. Does anyone know what to do for my lovely tree? ****HELP**** 9. Septiembre 2004, 23:18:49 Asunto: Re: Oak Tree! what kind of oak is it,Dolittle? 10. Septiembre 2004, 07:54:39 Asunto: Re: Compost I have a corner in my yard that i have a large piece of heavy metal around it.My husband turns it with a big pitch fork and he pours pepsi on it to get it cooking.Than he covers it with a metal covering.I also use manure when our garden is first tilled. 10. Septiembre 2004, 08:00:41 Asunto: Re: Oak Tree! Dootlittle maybe this site can help.

Septiembre 2004, 08:03:34 Asunto: Re: Compost Human waste omg i heard of that.I never eat the meat in chinese restaurants only the veggies.Oh yuk i'll stir fry at home.lol 10. Septiembre 2004, 08:27:34 Asunto: Re: Oak Tree! bwildman, I think that tree is live oak but am not sure. found out today from the University garden expert that it had oak leaf caterpillars. they said not to do anything to it..it will be fine. thanks for responding!!

http://www.recipegoldmine.com/house/house.html?l 13. Septiembre 2004, 02:23:24 Already got that one Foxy from the recipe f/s and did pass it around. It's a great site! 13. Septiembre 2004, 03:04:45 Asunto: Re: Compost etc To make one is easy: 4 wooden pallets attached to each other by large hinges, bought in any DIY store. Nail these together. Cover with old carpet.
A good alternative is a large square incinerator, the type that look a bit like a cage. Line this with tough plastic, and cover with carpet. 13. Septiembre 2004, 15:07:14 Asunto: Re: Compost etc if you set your front pallet a foot or so higher than the rest..you can access the bottom of the pile to either use or circulate. 18. Septiembre 2004, 11:16:48 Asunto: Re: Compost etc Your right bw my husband put holes all around the metal we have our compost in for the air to circulate.I like making a tea from the compost and watering my garden with that. 18. Septiembre 2004, 22:48:48 Asunto: Re: Compost etc Modificado por danoschek (18. Septiembre 2004, 22:50:57) even without frame, no problem - for ventilation, some rough material, stem-fractions and
branches on the ground, then stuff chopped finer - everything covered with a sward blanket, rain as starter - in years I composted almost everything but black tea leaves, successfully ... ~*~ 24. Septiembre 2004, 21:09:01 Asunto: Re: Compost etc A friend of mine does it that way.He puts twigs on the ground and in between the compost,seems to work for him. 24. Septiembre 2004, 21:13:21 Asunto: ahh right - boughs and twigs something like that I wanted to 'assemble' by
'stem-fractions' - short of the correct word, thanks :") ~*~ 26. Septiembre 2004, 09:06:42 Asunto: HORSES DON"T CUT THE COMPOST AS MUCH AS BEAR POOPS! Have the"baby" tapping on my window and stealing my birdfeed....Lovely Black/Brown creature he is!!! 29. Septiembre 2004, 13:05:31 Asunto: Garden Tools Depending on where you live it's time to clean your tools,and put them away for winter. 29. Septiembre 2004, 14:44:20 When is the best time to put tulip bulbs in? I live on the east coast of Canada and last year I put them in late Sept and they started to sprout after Hurricane Juan hit! Not usually that warm here in Oct! 1. Octubre 2004, 02:03:06 Asunto: If you plant tulips as we do in Zone 5...Connecticut You should then plan on then popping out out of the earth in the spring depending on if you have early, mid or late blooming tulips. If you have had a hard winter and the deer are hungry for fresh foliage, they may eat the buds and then you can forget blooms. 1. Octubre 2004, 04:40:33 Asunto: tulips  If you have trouble with squirrels etc. digging up your tulip bulbs. When your planting them place several in a cage built of chicken wire. 1. Octubre 2004, 05:17:13 Asunto: Re: tulips Better yet, plant 3 times the supply so both you and the wild life can enjoy. Makes for a great country life that way! 9.
