I agree with everything in your post.
I do believe the Indian government is possibly violating sanctions against Russia though. The U.S. could apply pressure on them to knock that off.
Couple quotes from a Forbes article…. I thought it was interesting.
===Presidents get a lot of credit and blame over rising and falling gasoline prices. In reality, there’s not a lot a president can do to impact gasoline prices in the short term. Longer term, a president can pass policies that...
What zone are you in? Did they over winter?
I might do that again- I just worry that they are going to winter kill, but I guess the rye will take up the slack if it does.
I’m correcting my earlier post! I bought four bags of Survivor peas from Welter’s and two bags of Austrian’s from the local dealer. Think the Survivors’s were starting to bloom, purple flowers. I suspect the Survivor’s were the ones that did better for me but I didn’t keep good enough...
Glad to hear that- was kinda worried about it. I have no experience with this at all! If this works out it’s going to be such a great way to go forward. Good plots and much less time intensive than what I was doing before. Benefits for all my wildlife.
I am planning on doing a little...
My equipment probably isn’t perfect for this, this is a Woods PSS84 seeder. Has a gang of discs, a spike roller, then a cast iron cultipacker. Definitely not a no-till drill! Yet when I bang a stump, I really don’t feel like I have to be nervous about it. I’m still marking and removing old...
Here is an adjacent plot. The rye did better here in this plot than the peas. This is more of a clay that does fine with plots but you can tell it isn’t as good of soil as the loam in the bigger field I posted pics of above. Also planted in summer release. You can see the rye doesn’t lay...
Here is the same plot 05/12/24. Late summer I planted 50/50/50 rye/oats peas. I used a mix of winter peas and they didn’t winter kill which I’m not sure I can count on every year in my area. The peas really went crazy this spring. Yesterday I ran the seeder through it and planted summer...
That is really nice. I didn’t know here were insurance issues with the outside boilers.
I might have to look back into getting a stove. Take another run at convincing the loving bride!
@Catscratch I could never convince my wife that we need an outdoor boiler. I cant tell you how many years of “free” heat I pushed in a pile and burned. It bothers me every time I do it.
