Tiny awful leafhoppers are doing a terrible thing to my grapes. I've tried spraying with detergent (they fly), lacewings, pirate bugs. The dragonflies can't keep up. Does anyone have any suggestions for me?
thanks!

I wanted to add a note about worms. About 7 years ago I went to the bait store and bought a container of red bait worms. I threw them in my compost (south side of the house, shaded by a fence), then used the compost in my gardens (raised and in-grou…
The grubs are beetle grubs (I can't quite yet squish them with my fingers, but I'm really good at squashing them with a toe) and they follow tree roots for the most part. HOWEVER, once they're in your garden, they say "Hey, lettuce tastes much bette…
Hi,
I'm following this thread with interest because of the compost and ph info. I've converted several of my raised beds to lasagne gardens using the same all compost for top soil. I'm also seeing some stress in my plants. ( So, I know where the pil…

Is there a good time to call you. I really would like to discuss your watering system again. I'm ready to install. Doing a summer planting.
I have about 12 dozen eggs right now too.

Thank you Johanna!!
This time of year, it's easy to drive around ABQ and find bagged leaves waiting for disposal by the city, at least that was the case a few years back. You only have another week or two to collect them before they're gone for another year ....
Now that is a chicken tractor!
I really thought this was clever too! I would think that Craig's List would have many of these listed pretty cheap. I believe that they had 3 chickens, but this setup could handle quite a bit more, and it looks so darn cute!
Wow, Inspiring and Beautiful!!!
She can dump out the bin in an area where she would like to create a new garden bed, preferably in a sunny location. Cover it with a black plastic bag or any other medium which will absorb the heat. Piling LOTS more leaves on top and saturating ever…
