Had some volunteer potatoes come up and wanted to experiment a little because I treated my actual crop with an Imidacloprid and wanted to see what the difference was. Blown away at the results.

**Id much rather use less chemicals BUT if I buy it at the grocery, who knows what’s on it.

“Control”:

Treated:

Exactly.

Imidacloprid works wonders for flea beatles and tater bugs but it has zero effect on the 4 legged resources browsing on my resources. Those considerate sportsmen whom want to do the right thing and make concessions liable for their damages can make checks payable to:

Finished up today. Well, thought about putting in another sweet corn crop because we will be warm enough November.

I’ll be honest that I believe warm soil is the number 1 factor in growth. Don’t like 90* weather yet but the amount of growth I see in this late garden is impressive.

The four leggers stepped down my arched chicken wire deterrent and ate what ever poked through Friday night.

Picked our 1st broccoli of the year along with kale and lettuce which we've been picking the kale and lettuce for a month or two at this point.

I was staking some tomato plants for the wife the other night and managed to get a little splinter off of an old oak tobacco stick when it busted out when I was driving it.

Dang. Hope you had a tetanus shot in the last couple of years. Puncture wounds are nothing to sneeze at.

And that has got to be the biggest splinter I’ve seen. Haha

It’s been a few years I believe. Yes it was pretty good sized, I tried to get my wife to video me pulling it out but she said she was going to pass out lol
