Yea, I'm just using on the roots, not spraying. Don't want to harm the bees. Says to use 1 oz per inch of trunk circumference in a gallon of water, and 2 doses of the trees are over 16" diameters. They are 50 and 55" circumference.

Thanks.

I think I'll pass on the tobacco juice.

Now that's probably one I haven't heard yet.

I sprayed off all the honeydew, did a major clean on the hot tub, and if you look close between the beds in the second pic, you'll see the cattle panel my wife had to have. The galvanized arch.


I just want my nice clean tub to warm up.

I pressure-washed our front wrap-around porch and the pillars. In the process discovered a bunch of rails that need replacing. I hate it when work creates work.

What the heck is a "cattle panel"? - Is that some sort of Idaho thing?? -

OK, so, we are impressed with the front of your house, but, the roof needs some cleaning. -

I hear that bit about work creating work - that's the reason I do little work to start with.

OK, which crop duster story do you want to hear about?

* flying between two stand pipes

* head on with a crop duster on a landing strip on top of a rice field levee

* almost falling out of the grain bin of an Ag-Cat

* getting buzzed by a crop duster coming right at me while driving

* none of the above
