amarshall Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 In my world it prevents a herd of sandy feet. We stuff the kids in the shower and it's 2 for 1. Plus taking a shower in sunshine fully nude doesn't suck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brewbeer Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 It also keeps excess moisture out of the house during high dews season which means the house is more comfortable and the AC doesn't work as hard. The inside shower stays drier and cleaner and is less likely to grow mold. Also, you dry off quicker outside. But the best reason as already posted is that freeballing in the sunshine of a warm summer's day is one of life's truely enjoyable experiences.

bairn Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 Right, its insane. Money that could be spent in state, going to all the surrounding states. It stops nobody, yet the state will continue to keep it illegal and make nothing off of it. Its pretty incredible how adamant our reps are in keeping them illegal Consumer fireworks is a lucrative business And they spend time and money on hiway signs telling us they're illegal...

Yeah, I am actually a bit ahead this year, But there looks to be a lot of cuke flowers, Last year i did squash but had issues with squash bugs, Did not do it this year and had some reappear on my cukes, But i dusted them with sevin and it seems to have taken care of them for now, No melons, But i have Cauliflower, Beef Steak Tomatoes, Pole beans, Cukes, Leaf Lettuce, Cherry tomatoes, Broccoli and Brussel Sprouts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expanded some flower beds and we have a great farm stand 2 miles away Thanks, I have a veggie stand about a half mile away from me, But i feel better rewarded when they are my own, I may take a crack at some flowers next year as well, Don't think i would have much of a problem growing them....

tamarack Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 Irrigation FTW Picture 27.JPG What are the plants in the center with the yellow flowerlets? My first thought was broccoli, but unless you were trying to grow/save seed, I'd think you would've picked it long before it got that far. And your garden is a month, at least, ahead of mine (though mine still was snow-covered on April 20.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is the Broccoli, I let it go to far, Going to have to trim those off, That is the advantage of the containers, Getting an early start up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damage In Tolland Posted July 14, 2014 Author Share Posted July 14, 2014 Couple things: 1)Red thread running rampant this year. It's even hit my yard..awful 2)Gonna be a big acorn year..they are already coming down and squirrels are up in trees chewing off the little branches and when they come down are loaded with little acorns 3) Does anyone in SNE have any flowers on their hydrangeas this year? Around here they are half the height they usually are with no flowers. The frigid winter killed them to the ground. When i was in FMH last week, theirs had flowers, but small ones..nothing big like you usually see Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We haven't had that much rain here either..but it's the worst I've ever seen it. Every yard has it. I put down Merit yesterday..so hopefully after the rains this week and shot of Nitrogen it will get rid of it over the next few weeks At least you have flowers. Noone has any around here..I had to cut all the dead sticks way down. They look awful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JC-CT Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 Yeah they all look like this Lol I thought everyone had the wrong kind of grass or something. I've seen some areas in Glastonbury where everybody's lawn looks 75% like that. Nasty stuff, does it actually harm the grass? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastalWx Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 I wonder if I have some. There are a few streaky looking dead spots , but I don't see that red stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
