I am willing to give this a shot because I have spent a TON of money on every other solution with no discernable results and dead or not very healthy looking plants. In addition, I (by me, I mean my husband) am watering a ton, and it is not helping (and I can see why now). However, your sample bed really didn't look like compacted sticky clay soil. My north central TX soil, unamended, sure does not look like that at all. It is a butter scotchy-colored, sticky mess. I would bet that my soil, recently amended, won't be "fluffy" either, but I'm still willing to give it a shot, video graphics aside!! I will definitely check back. Thank you for this video and for accompanying other videos on this topic. I saw quite a few other videos I would like to watch also.
Years ago, those flys were released about a 4 minute drive from my home and apparently they didn’t faze the fire ants. I spend a fortune killing fireants every year on my farm. I baited some today. I’m thinking the cold killed the flys out. We hit a -3 during Snowvid. If the Queen ant never leaves the mound, the mound won’t die from the flys.
My neibor just cut a healthy 20 ft maples down for "reasons" but i was wondering if i grafted 3 pieces into the stump and wove them together when they got large enough would the tree strangle it self out? I dont want a tree with a big V where the limbs rot and fall off but i figures if i pointed them all inward and wove the 3 together it would grow strait up and would also have a cool base when it gets older.
Mine are smaller but very tasty and the suckers are true to the plant. I have no idea what variety mine is but I dug it up from my uncle's house and have 5 growing now under my original. I severed the link with the mother tree so I can transplant in the winter.
Do the root suckers also bring fruits on their branches ? It seems to me in that course it will be an easy way to multiply your fruiit plants. I anyway have only one race and also no necessity to graft.
Have y'all did any research on the T V Munson grapes? I have 2 lanes and 2 halls here in Stephenville, but I'm worried about them freezing. then I came across the TV Munson info from the 1890's. Maybe looking at the Mrs Munson to plant. Thanks
I'm growing some in southwest oklahoma old Greer County which was Texas at one time.. now it's jackson county in oklahoma. It's tart but I blend with sand plums. So yummy
Sorry, but, I disagree with you about the 1". Let me explain. My landlords agree with you. So, I am only allowed to water 1/2 hour each day. When hot weather comes my plants and grass (my yard is small around 25 feet by 20 feet). One half inch of water doesn't even go through the mulch. The ground is totally dry underneath it and one hour later, still dry. However, the mulch is damp.
This whole time I was thinking birds were attacking my apples, but it is bitter Rot 😢😢😢😢 Thank you for the information I was going crazy couldn’t figure it out what was happening 😅
Asian people dry and make Tea or make medicine. I used for Jinger with date tea is good for cold and make body warm. also, I use for every herbal medicine or tea I put in small amount.
I just hate it when my tube is swollen and I can't get it to drip properly! ahahaha hahaha 🤣😂🤣. So no skeet skeet skeeting.. That's bad for the plants... Instead I'll make it rain on the ground only.. but I could have sworn spilling your seed on the ground was bad but then it's the garden so I guess it's okay! 😂😂🎉😂
I'm in Houston and grow Honey Jar and Sugarcane. They're prolific and don't need summer water. I would love some recipes because they produce A LOT of fruit. I planted them mainly for the pollinators, the flowers are tiny and smell sweet and they are covered in pollinators (really cool, tiny wasps and bees). They"re also a great food source for songbirds if you like to share. The thorns are vicious, so I wouldn't put them in a high traffic area to
