Vegetable garden update clip

A bit of a catch up on how the patch is going now we are coming to the end of summer.. Many of the plants are doing well but we are still having  few issues with nematodes & grasshopper attacks in the patch.. While cleaning out a few beds I found one that was extremely hydrophobic..  Below is a link that explains what hydrophobic soils are..http://geography.swansea.ac.uk/hydrophobicity/soil_hydrophobicity.htmWas...

So I figured the first meeting of the Humboldt Microcontrollers Group (which was tonight, May 15, 2014) would be a pretty quiet one, likely just Nick and me, maybe one or two others.It turned out that instead of two or three people, we ended up with nine people participating in the kick-off meeting for the group! If we have nine people, or more, show up at the biweekly meetings (next one is May 29,...

The Madaya Crisis Media LIES Propaganda

And so it continues....Im not surprised.  I mean.... we know that the media is lying to us continuously.  And yet what does shock me, is the constant perpetuation of these lies as "truth" and "fact" by so many people.  How is it that people are STILL falling for these outright lies?  How is it that people are still spreading these...

Compost Worms

Compost Screen...Made an alteration to the compost screen by installing a larger gauge (right) mesh as the smaller gauge (left) was clogging up far to much which made the process rather long... I screened 3 of the drums yesterday & the end product still comes out fairly fine with no large "clumps"... This makes it great for breaking up the soil...

Water Chestnut crop update

A look at the water chestnut crop for this year.. Third time lucky as the first 2 attempts were dismal failures.. The first went into the bathtub pond & we think the leachate from the bucket was making the fish ill so pulled it out..The second attempt was with buckets placed into drums full of water.. That wasnt exactly a stunning success either with the soil becoming rather acidic..Third attempt...

Operation Worm rescue

Got a bit over zealous with making up a batch of worm food this week.... In my attempt to give the little fellas a treat of bread, which they love by the way, Koo & I added to much to the Worm Slushie... As a result the Slushie started to ferment in the Farm & generate a lot of heat.... All the offending Slushie was removed then some Sugar...

Seeding time !!

pHad a nice quite day today.... Made some up some Dairy spread this morning.... Its easy to make & we know what goes into it... I use a Ratio of 2:1 Butter & Rice Bran Oil... It works out heaps cheaper than buying the "spreadable" butters & is a lot better to cook with as you get the butter flavour but it doesnt burn like normal...

Transpicuous New Years Report

Well my friends, the year has come to an end, with not so much of a bang... more of a whisper and a whimper it would seem.  While on the Surface the "News" has been devoid of anything even remotely interesting, in the back ground, while everyone was distracted by egg nog and leftover turkey sandwiches, there was a few very interesting things that...
