BerniceC: Moth balls and napthalene flakes are petroleum products, and if you can smell them, they are getting into your lungs, and that is NOT good for you! To rid youself of pests, deprive them of their food supply. Cayenne pepper will repel mice and squirrels.

yep moth balls or napthalene flakes....we put them on the floor of our shed...no cockroaches or mice :) and it smells nice :)
but if you have scavenging pets, or small children..crawling etc that will put anything in their mouths BEWARE they are deadly poisonous

Moth balls really work on keeping spiders and wasps away? Gotta try that then. My windows and doors are always covered in huge spider webs. DOnt mind spiders just tired of them taking up all the window an door space

Temo: Re: Birds
Foxy Lady: Your right Foxy. SO many people think its cute to feed the birds in spring to watch them chirp by the windows but RIGHT now they need food. I feed the many, many diff types of birds in my neighbourhood. Peanuts for the jay and even squirrels. Seeds for the little ones. Even meat and eggs for the crows and seagulls. All birds are equal in my books.

i started planting snow peas today. they're picked before they mature and eaten whole, usually in stir-fry, very tasty. i like them in a salad uncooked. good gardening to all.

Foxy Lady: 1st time II heard it...I thought"no way"
the soil here in the Ozarks consists mostly of rock and red clay,and b planting grass in this fashion,allows the seed plenty of time to germinate.

Yes we've done that it also keeps the birds from eating the seed.......Yuk i don't like peas.

just before a snow is the best time to plant grass seed.
As the snow melts,it loosens the ground and somewhat buries the seed.

when planting roses(and it helps to fish quite often) I literally plant the fish carcasses 1st,covering with 3 to 4 inches of soil,then planting the bush.This allows the oplant to "grow into" the fertilizer,after planting shock.

here the main provider is 'Neudorff' - could be available internationally.
btw the fishy stuff is practicable indeed. 'pre-rotten' in the garden even
entirely un-smelly - and fishbones grated are not notorious either ... :D ~*~

Thanks Nev Nake & Bwildman, but I don't think it's practical to put fish bones, heads etc into pots. I'm actually trying to get cuttings going in pots to transport to another property

absolutly!! and the more oily the fish the better!
early Americans were taught to plant corn by the Indians that way.

fish emmulsifier....or just put old (fresh) not cooked fish bones and meat under the cuttings.....works wonders.

it is used in the tropics of australia every day....you catch a fish, eat the flesh, and bury the remains under a plant...good gear LOLOL

as rooting hormone - it works amazingly well ...
one ounce is about 5 euros here - equals $6.50 ...
it works even in very low doses - truely productive ... ~*~

I've been told that honey applied to cuttings acts as a rooting horemone. My question is has anybody ever tried this, and if so how successful was it?
