Things have slowed down considerably around here, I guess it is the sleepy time in the summer where folks are on vacation

Here it is very busy getting places ready for their 'big events'. Their place has to be the best in the area when visitors show.
Its 4th of July all over again...

We are having a nice rain right now and the forecast says I can sit right here until 10AM!!! :)

I guess I'll have to kick it up a notch

Bill, This link may help liven things up in the organic forum. It is more of a Food Safety Issue related topic than a Lawn topic.

http://www.food.gov.uk/news/newsarchive/2009/jul/organic


Gill Fine, FSA Director of Consumer Choice and Dietary Health, said: ‘Ensuring people have accurate information is absolutely essential in allowing us all to make informed choices about the food we eat. This study does not mean that people should not eat organic food. What it shows is that there is little, if any, nutritional difference between organic and conventionally produced food and that there is no evidence of additional health benefits from eating organic food.

Pic #1 -- trying to compost one of those old carnival caterpillar rides ?

Pic#2 -- tractor/grappler read to battle Ford truck?

When changing the Ford's oil, do you drain it onto the ground?:)

Hey Bill,

I Thought I would just pass this along.

I had a few gallons left in my tank with 123 when I got home so I decided to spray it on my dying zucchini plant that has a bad case of powdery mildew. It got rid of probably 85% of it within 24 hrs. It's still giving me zucchini.

Sweet, nice story, it is probably the trichoderma and foliar feeding. Try to get complete leaf coverage

We have had calls on cucumbers, tomatoes, potaotes, take all patch on St Augustine and many more. We had a major league baseball field call in that they sprayed it on some turf with pythium, it was gone 3 days later

Its nice to hear good things back from the field
