Anyone planning a big food garden in case this pandemic lasts?

[Jade Dragon]

Yeah, Costco doors will have just opened, and apparently it will have been the time to be there.

One thing people are overlooking is hydrogen peroxide. Great disinfecting capabilities.

[christiefan915]

And liver and broccoli too. lol

I eat broccoli 5 days out of 7. Thank god there's always a nice supply in my store.

Many are saying/wondering if they actually are immune or still susceptible to a second + wave in the fall, like the Camp Funston flu..

Something we should know by election day.

Hello Jade Dragon,

We were originally going to get ready to move this summer but now things have drastically changed. Now I'm glad I bought all those seeds last year and got too sidetracked with health issues to use them. Also, I got 3 Aerogrows I'm about to get running for salad greens.

Oh yeah.

We were gonna travel, plans changed. Time to plant. Already got some tomatoes goin.

No kidding. I figured on putting an electric fence about deer nose high but last time I looked int that the units were made for a fence about a mile long, not 100 feet or so.

good luck.....

[Bill]

Thanks, will do. Growing lettuce is so much better in those Aerogrows since being indoors stops bug and deer munchers.

Not sure yet but will start with lettuces in the aerogrow.

Good idea. Don't have an Aerogrow, but do have three baby lettuces growing in pots on the sill.

You may also thank me for not taking your beloved blecholi. lol

Once you have actually had it and recovered, you are immune. The antibodies produced against the COVID pathogen will stay with you even long after it's gone.

We have a six-foot high fence that keeps them out. The secret is situating the garden where they can't get a running start, because they *can* leap over that high.

That type of fence isn't allowed in either HOA where I own property.

Oh crap. They might not allow an electric fence either. Might electrocute a neighbor kid. lol

No the rules govern the height and material of fences; aesthetics. An electric fence is short and barely visible, so no problem.

Every kid should experience getting a buzz off an electric fence at least once. We've all heard and been amused by stories of a boy peeing on one, and the next generation should have the same opportunity to laugh at that.

Are the roots in the way?? Plants will suck a lot of water, trees usually deeper.... Shallow soil?? Clay??

Yes it's the roots,actually 2 trees

[Mason Michaels]

It isn't a cedar, is it? Those have invasive roots that swarm moist areas. They crammed in and ruined our septic field.

Pine tree,two really
