Happy Birthday to QB and any other in the D!

Prayers going out to those that need it. I had some one tell me if someone asks you to pray for them, don't just do lip service, pray for them!!!

Got the shelves built for my sister yesterday, she has already told me that she wants another set built. She wants to know how much she owes me for building them, just don't know, because I really hate to charge her anything!!! May just ask her to donate to the Cordmaker birthday fund!! I want a sliding compound miter saw for my birthday. Birthday is June 31st!

Well got to go pay my lumber bill, they keep a tab open for me, I have been trading with them since the late 60's great company, buying local!!!

Congrats on 31 Bev. A good man is hard to find. Of course some of us had already been married 25 years when you got married. In August you get to be a full-fledged member of the D instead of an honorary member. That is a great honor.

Well, they got me. Completely wiped out my tomatoes last night. I picked some tomatoes yesterday afternoon and the plants were healthy with no sign of horn worms. Go out this morning and they had devastated my plants. Totally destroyed them. I treated them with Seven last Saturday and they still got em'. It is not easy growing crops down here but fortunately we have several growing seasons and i can replant. These pests were all over the plants eating away. They are dead now but it is too late to save my tomatoes.

I've planted 10 tomato plants this year. Not one of them has grown and produced. Just can't pull it off in AZ.

Torture them by putting them on a hook and feeding them to the fish!!!!!

Have you tried a with greenhouse? Small greenhouses are fairly reasonable.

That looks like a tobacco worm. Sorry.

Seven is negated by water. The rain has wasted the seven. Apply it often. The tobacco worm is a good eater.

Good morning to the D-League. Sending a prayer to Austin's nephew, best wishes to Don's QB and congratulations to Bev's Ron on their 31st -- he's the lucky one in that deal, as all us men are who find a good woman.

Getting ready for lunch with my son who is taking the train into DC. He got a rare day off and I don't want to see the summer slip away without spending as much time as I can with him. He'll be back in Lexington soon enough. My daughter is in Austin visiting a BF who works in a lab at UTexas. She's considering grad school there this fall. My wife and I are on the fence about the guy but know better than to meddle.

You all keep after those tomato plants. My dad and brother spend hundreds of hours to produce tomatoes that are so plentiful when theirs ripen that everyone in the county is trying to give them away. But I suppose it beats drinking as a hobby - or maybe causes it.

Great eye Don. Only a Kentuckian could have caught that. They are very similar. I wasn't paying much attention when I copied the picture.

This was what got me. Rain. We have had 3 to 5 inches a rain most every day. Last night we got a ton of rain. They came up over night. They didn't get into my peppers but I better take a close look today and spray them.

I helped one of my friends from Ballard County pick those things off of their tobacco patch so he could go ramble with me.

What Insects Does Sevin Dust K...

Home Home & Garden Pest Control
What Insects Does Sevin Dust Kill?




Insects that Sevin dust kills include potato beetles, parasitic wasps, ladybugs, bees, roaches and fleas. Sevin dust contains a chemical called carbaryl, which kills over 100 types of insects.

Sevin dust works by degrading an insect's nervous system through ingestion or direct contact. There are different variations of Sevin dust, including 5-percent carbaryl dust, 10-percent carbaryl dust and garden dust. Sevin-5 is reserved for outdoor use on garden lawns, and it kills 65 different pests, including Japanese beetles, grubs and ticks.

Sevin dust can be applied in powder form or mixed with water for spraying on crops, such as tomato plants. Sevin dust is normally applied on fruits and vegetables, but the crops must be washed with water before these foods are consumed. However, there are times when spraying around the plant is necessary. For instance, 2 tablespoons of 50-percent Sevin powder with 1 gallon of water is for application on weed-infested areas around tomato plants, which are havens in which stink bugs thrive. The solution should not be sprayed directly on the tomato plants, and Sevin dust must never be applied on flowering plants to avoid killing honeybees.

The liquid form of Sevin dust kills insects like Colorado potato beetles. Liquid Sevin dust works best on plants that reach up to waist or chest level. Adding water to liquid Sevin dust is still necessary for thorough application of an area.

I bought a couple of GrowBoxes and put them on our deck. 4 tomato plants and I've counted over 70 tomatoes so far. Should start getting ripe in a few weeks. Hopefully there won't be any problems.

I am going to start over. I had picked at least 20 nice sized tomatoes until they got me last night. I have a couple of boxes and will see what happens with them.

 

[wildcatdonf]

Over the years my daddy brought home a tow sack or two of chicken guano every time we visited Maw Maw and Paw Paw. He developed quite a tomato bed. He always planted some Big Boy plants. It must have been the perfect spot because he would get championship tomato crops back there.

HOAs are mean out here. Not allowed.

Bought a 27" Samsung computer monitor for $5 (they were asking $10) at a garage sale Saturday. The power cord was missing. Found one on Amazon for $10. So I now have this huge amazing monitor for $15.

Bought an older IPad for $2 at a garage sale a while back and it works great after I figured out how to get in it.

Found a 160 gig Ipod recently outside a dumpster and it works perfectly.

This is the way I acquire most everything I get. I seldom buy any big ticket things new.

Before hi-boy sprayers came along that's the only way to get tobacco worms off a plant was to squeeze them till they popped. Hands would be green for a few days but generally wore off. FCC

 

[FutureCityCats]

Here is mine and little bit's halftime report. Six 5 week old puppies are alot to take care of. Not to mention 9 new chickens, small garden, mow 2 acres, laundry, meals blah blah blah. Great times!!! Wife and boys back Friday night. FCC.

I was thinking Elton John.

Mine is 50 this year to, Mr. Rooster!

We are in the planning stages of our 50th, for next summer. We are pretty lucky. Out of 260 graduates, we have only lost about 45.

I read where John said that Paul came to his house where they were collaborating on songs, and they got it from a picture that Julian had drawn.

Wonder if those things get throat or stomach cancer?

BKO is on. We have missed our girl.

Thanks for showing up BKO. Congratulations on your 31st, that's awesome .How is the new job?

Austin Praying for your nephew. He should be fine, follow Doctors orders. It's mid-day but sever weather predicted from afternoon thru the night.

[OldEvilleCat]

But OEC it looks like bad weather moving in!

Just had one blow through...and looks as if we got a few more on the way.

My brother called me earlier today. His 29 year-old son, my nephew, suffered a heart attack yesterday. They put a stent in him. He should recover okay.

Crazy.

God Bless! I've got 3 stents in me...dang genetics.
