What causes my Tendersweet yellow watermelon to grow large, get ripe, but be hollow in center?
This sounds like hollow heart of watermelons, of which the cause is not known for certain but normally related to weather conditions in addition to poor pollination. Uneven moisture levels and too much fertilizer may cause hollowed out watermelons. Seedless types are more prone to this disorder as well. Other than maintaining even moisture levels and being careful not to over fertilize, there is really little else you can do as you cannot control the weather and if there is lots of rain, pollinators will not be able to do their job. Hand pollination, however, may help with this. Here is more info on that: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/edible/fruits/melons/hand-pollinating-melons.htm

World wheat manufacturing is prone to fall for the primary time in 4 years, in accordance with a intently watched US authorities forecast of the upcoming crop season, confirming fears of an additional tightening of provide and rising meals inflation.
Wheat costs rose after the US Division of Agriculture issued its first world estimates for the 2022-23 crop season on Thursday. Futures for the brand new crop for September supply traded in Chicago rallied as excessive as $12 a bushel, up 8 per cent on the week, earlier than easing barely. Euronext wheat futures traded at a two-month excessive of €411.50 a tonne.
Grain merchants, meals firms and governments have been protecting a detailed eye on provides since Russia’s invasion of Ukraine disrupted farming within the nation, one of many prime 5 wheat exporters. The USDA predicted on Thursday that Ukraine’s wheat manufacturing would fall by a bigger than anticipated 35 per cent from the yr earlier than, to 21.5mn tonnes.
The USDA forecast 2022-23 complete international wheat output at 774.8mn tonnes, the primary decline because the 2018-19 season. World buffer shares are anticipated at 267mn tonnes, down for the second yr in a row and the bottom stage in six years.
The conflict in Ukraine had uncovered the interconnected nature and fragility of agricultural methods, with severe penalties for meals safety, the UN World Meals Programme stated in reference to a report on the worldwide meals disaster revealed earlier this month. The variety of individuals dealing with acute meals insecurity totalled a report 193mn in 2021, the WFP stated.

Is the Designation of Origin a private body?
No. Designations of Origin are bodies created and promoted by the European Commission, and supervised by national and regional public administrations.
What interests do the Designations of Origin have?
Designations of Origin are non-profit organisations, subject to private law in terms of management, but regulated and supervised by public administrations. In our case, we are regulated by the Regional Department of Agriculture of the Valencian Government and the national Ministry of Agriculture, as well as by the European Commission.
How are Designations of Origin regulated?
When a Designation of Origin is created, it is regulated in accordance with specific legislation created by the European Commission and all Member States. These regulations are given in the Specifications and in the regulations of the Regulatory Councils, where all operating rules are established.
What is the Specification?
It is the document that specifies the particular characteristics that differentiate the product being protected, and which must be complied with when identifying a product as coming from that Designation of Origin. This document details the characteristics that must be met by the kakis, as regards size, internal and external quality, presentation, origin, methods of production and identification for consumers, among others.
What are the regulations of the Regulatory Council?
The regulations are the document that establishes how the Designation of Origin is managed, and these are approved by the competent autonomous administration, as well as by the Ministry of Agriculture. This document establishes the procedures for the management and organisation of the Designation of Origin, how the members of the Managing Board are elected, the operating rules and financing, among others.
Who can be part of the Regulatory Council?
Any grower and company or cooperative located within the area covered by the Designation of Origin can request registration provided they comply with the requirements established in the Specification.
What is product certification?
In accordance with the regulations of the European Commission, products obtaining recognition as Protected Designations of Origin must guarantee that the product labelled as such complies with the requirements established in its Specification. To achieve this, our Designation of Origin certifies and controls that products labelled with our seal comply with all these guarantees. In turn, our Designation of Origin is accredited by ENAC (National Accreditation Entity), a national body under the Ministry of Industry, which is responsible for accrediting and controlling product certification bodies, as is our case. In accordance with European regulations, Designations of Origin certifying product must be duly accredited. Our Designation of Origin has been accredited by ENAC since 2011.
How is the certified product guaranteed?
By implementing the certification system of our Designation of Origin, accredited by ENAC, we make weekly visits to all operators selling certified products to supervise that products identified as “Kaki Ribera del Xúquer” meet the established requirements.
Where do certified Designation-of-Origin kakis come from?
Only kakis of the local variety “Rojo Brillante” produced in the area protected by the Designation of Origin may bear the logo or seal identifying them as a kaki with the “Ribera del Xúquer” Designation of Origin. The actual protected area of the Jucar River Banks can be consulted in our Specification.
Does the Designation of Origin sell or market products?
No. Our Designation of Origin is only responsible for certifying and promoting products. The Designation of Origin, as a certifier, must remain independent from all marketing and sales of products.
How do I identify a kaki as coming from your Designation of Origin?
Kakis certified by our Designation of Origin are identified by the logo of the Designation of Origin on the packaging and by the label you can find on the fruit itself, showing “Persimon® D.O.P. Kaki Ribera del Xúquer”.
What is the difference between a kaki certified by the Designation of Origin and a non-certified one?
The aim of the Designation of Origin is to ensure that when consumers purchase a certified product, they know they are buying a product that meets a series of quality requirements established in the PDO’s Specification and that it has been controlled under the Designation of Origin’s certification system. Thus, consumers can be sure that the kaki being purchased is of the highest quality, having been produced by growers committed to the district in which they are produced, showing all due support for maintaining traditional rural areas with all their ecological and scenic values.
Do kakis that are not certified by a Designation of Origin offer less of a guarantee?
Not necessarily. In fact, during the season, a large portion of the production in our protected area and registered with the Designation of Origin are not identified as a PDO product because they don’t meet the strict quality standards required, mostly for external quality reasons which do not really affect the internal quality or taste of the fruit, because they have been grown under the same conditions as certified fruit. For this reason, we never say that uncertified kakis are worse in quality than our certified Designation of Origin kakis. It’s just that some meet the grade and others don’t. Only a certified kaki tells consumers that it has passed more controls than other products. Moreover, there are quite a few growers both inside and outside the protected area of the Designation of Origin who are not registered, but who are excellent professionals and produce high quality kakis, so they deserve all our respect.
How are Board members of the Designation of Origin elected so they can decide on policy and actions?
The members of the Board are chosen in free elections, regulated by the Regional Government, following a process similar to that of a general election. All producers or operators registered in the Designation of Origin may stand as candidates. Every four years Board members are fully renewed at our Designation of Origin.
Why are your persimmons called "Kaki Ribera del Xúquer"?
Although in Spanish the word for this fruit is “caqui”, when it came to naming our Designation of Origin we decided to take part of its botanical name “Diospiros kaki
As for “Ribera del Xúquer”, the official name of the Designation of Origin, we chose this because the first cultivation of this fruit was located in the areas near the riverbank that runs through the main production area, the “Riu Xúquer” (or in Spanish the “Júcar” River). This river has a very important presence in the area, as it not only brings water to our area for irrigation, but has also produced the high fertility of these agricultural lands. In addition, the “Riu Xúquer” greatly influences this area in multiple ways: ecological, scenic and as regards the culture of the traditional inhabitants of this district.

If you’ve cruised up to wine country in the last couple weeks, you’ll notice vineyards are looking fairly bare. The shoots on the vine are either unpruned and naked of all their leaves or have been cut down to a 2-bud stub on the cordon, but what about those vines that look like they’ve been half pruned, with canes only about a foot long?
Lately, a new trend has started to develop involving two passes through the vineyard. The first pass typically occurs anywhere between October and December and trims canes down to about 12 inches. It’s being called ‘double’ or ‘pre-‘pruning and has been most commonly practiced, so far, on cordon-pruned vineyards. It can even be mechanized, potentially saving cost and time! Whether done by hand or machine
Vines re-pruned to 12 inches is advantageous in a couple ways:
– Prunes canes down to a manageable length, i.e. No…

Spring’s in the air, and farmers’ tailgate markets aren’t far behind. On April 4, the Madison County Farmers Market at Mars Hill College opens, followed by the French Broad Food Co-Op’s (76 Biltmore Ave.) and the Henderson County tailgate markets (100 N. King St). On April 15, the West Asheville market warms up (behind West End Bakery on Haywood), and on April 18, both the Asheville City Market and the North Asheville Tailgate Markets get going (Public Works parking lot on Charlotte Street and off Weaver Boulevard at UNCA, respectively). There will also be Sundays on the Island (Sundays, of course, in across the river from downtown Marshall, starting April 19).
Shop for the freshest local food and make a day of free activities such as live music, tastings, and cooking demonstrations. Spring crops include asparagus, peas, spinach, lettuce, kale, bok choy, arugula, other greens, onions, mushrooms, and radishes. Many tailgate markets offer nursery plants and transplants, seedlings for you to plant in your own garden. Shop for breads, hand pies, scones, muffins, cinnamon buns, mini-cupcakes, strawberry rhubarb tarts, and other baked goods, both sweet and savory. Eggs, cheeses, beef, pork, chicken, jams, relishes, salad dressings, honey, handmade pasta and crafts are available at tailgate markets throughout the season.
“It’s an inexpensive family outing,” says Julie Mansfield of Mountain Harvest Organics farm, which sells fresh fruits, vegetables, herbs, and flowers at the North Asheville Tailgate Market. She mentions family-friendly activities and emphasizes how comparable tailgate-market prices are with area grocery stores. And of course, there’s the flavor of local produce and goods.
The Asheville City Market opens with something special: Chefs Anthony Cerrato (Fiore’s Ristorante Toscana) and Tres Hundertmark (The Lobster Trap) will offer cooking demonstrations at 10:00 and 11:30 a.m. (April 18). And Harpist Kathleen Slattery will perform throughout the morning.
For more information, visit the Web site, www.buyappalachian.org. By May, almost all area tailgate markets will be under way.


From commentor HeartlandLiberal:
How about this one, if you are in the mood for submissions for a garden pic for balloon-juice gardening diary.
It is one of several in a diary on our personal blog I posted this week.
All taken with my Pentax K5 and Pentax SMC DA* 16-50mm f/2.8 ED SDM zoom lens.
The tall sunflowers behind me in the first pic on the blog post were at that point almost 12 feet tall. The heads as they matured were over a foot wide, and are now so heavy they droop and nod and the stems cannot hold them upright any more.
Gardeners should definitely click over, for more pictures & advice. This is the photo I’m really envious about:
My tomato garden continues to be… okay, mostly. Several of our favorite plants have died prematurely. We’re still getting more ripe fruit than we can really eat fresh, but not enough to go to the trouble of preserving, partially because this week nightime temps have dropped into the low 50s. Lovely for sleeping, but not for fruit set. It’s the annual lag where it seems like I’ve put in too much effort for not enough results, and vow that next February I’ll pre-order half as many plants, all of them proven producers for our microclime. (I know: #firstworldproblems !)
What’s going on in your gardens, this week?


With the summer already half way done, the Dene has been nothing but busy! Since the last time we reported the garden has really taken shape, students partook in a special Hildene event, a new gator was bought, and we have participated in quite a few of the Manchester Farmer’s Markets.
When we first started this summer the garden was a jungle of weeds. Now, we have a variety of plants ranging from: Brussels Sprouts, Tomatoes, Basil, Carrots, Beets, Cabbage, Peas, and many more!
Just last week, we got the opportunity to show off our hard work at a Hildene Donor Dinner. The night was quite a success for the team and we engaged in wonderful conversations about gardening and Hildene’s history. They even got to see the finished classroom, which is the new home for the Dene Farm Program. We are still waiting to move in, but it seems like the big day is just around the corner.
The exciting news doesn’t stop there! After many years of borrowing vehicles, we finally bought a Gator! Transportati...
The Dene Farm is in full swing this summer with a new crew led by Mr. Andersen! It’s been a rainy start but that hasn’t stopped us from working hard and getting the job done. The new crew consists of 5 enthusiastic BBA students: Tobianna Aldrich, Kilo Francomb, Bolivar Rodriquez, Peter Tschaikowsky, and Abby Navin. Look out for their bio’s soon!
Not a moment here has been wasted-- we’ve worked hard to make some beautiful tomato trellises and plant a wide variety of vegetables, including: potatoes, tomatoes, peppers, basil, brussel sprouts and many more. However, it doesn’t stop there! We also made our first appearance at the Manchester Farmer’s Market just last Thursday and are already preparing for this week’s! You can find our stand filled with the classic Microgreens and other seasonal greens, ranging from spinach to kale and everything in between!
With many more weeks ahead of us, we are all looking forward to learning more about Vermont’s agriculture! Our plans for the near future...

The Pot is Boiling: Adverse Effects on Assam’s Tea Production
Post on: Climate Change
| 19 January 2016 | BY : nmsheadmin
By - Chandrani Sinha
Originally published in nezine.com on 12 January, 2016
Certain places get identified with certain things. When it comes to Assam, it is certainly Assam tea, known worldwide for its strong colour and taste. The north-eastern State produces more than half of India’s tea production, thus earning for the country’s considerable amount of revenue from its export. The State alone contributes 17 per cent to the global tea production.


Answer: No matter how unsightly the frost damage may appear, don't trim it off. The dead foliage acts as an insulating buffer to protect live tissue during future frosts. Our frosts are likely done for this season, but another potential outcome of pruning too early is removing more plant tissue than necessary. Oftentimes, damage looks worse than it is. Wait until new green growth starts to pop as temperatures warm in March or early April. Then cut back dead stems to that new growth. Excessive pruning also opens the tree up to sunburn, just around the corner with summer's arrival. There's nothing to be done to hurry all these frost-damaged ficus back to health, other than making sure they are watered sufficiently, to a depth of 3 feet for mature trees, somewhat less if they are young trees planted within the last year or two. Water should be applied at the outer canopy edge. When (if) green growth starts, then you can apply fertilizer. It won't help before then. Unfortunately for many folks, their ficus aren't going to recover from this year's hard frost that showed up several nights in a row. Good luck with yours!

Fall is a favorite time for gardeners. It’s a time where our hard work of nearly a year really pays off. No matter if you have acres to work or a modest container garden, fall is a great time to reflect and celebrate your garden no matter if it was a successful or possibly a growth year. Here are some of our favorite Fall planting ideas for your containers and landscape. Don’t forget to refer to our post on How to Make a Sweet and Spicy Porch Pot for more tips on extending the lift of your pots.
Just as with container gardening it’s important to choose plants that will either thrill, fill, or spill and ideally all three. But as always feel free to color outside of the box. We love seeing what you come up with so make sure to upload to our Your Creations Page. You always thrill us year after year.
Thrill Plants for Fall Plantings
As fall is often called a celebration of harvest it’s no surprise that many “Thrill” elements of fall plantings include showy vegetables. Take a look at some of our favorite vegetables to thrill with below.
Pumpkins and Squash – Many people have strong opinions on fall gourds some people are pumpkin people and some aren’t but don’t let that stop you. There are so many different types of squash to choose from you are sure to find a variety that fits your aesthetic.
Kale – I love adding decorative Kale to porch pots and window boxes. Kale plants offer stunning foliage adding texture and interest to your plantings. Kale is a great way to break up large cluster plantings and anchor the overall design. Some of our favorite varieties include: Emperor Red, Emperor White, Coral Queen, Pigeon Kale, Red Russian, and Red Chidori
Cabbage – Decorative Cabbage and Kale have a similar look, but planting cabbage you can add that at a much larger scale. If you are in the midwest it’s a a great time to plant as they thrive in cooler temperatures. Some of our favorite decorative varieties include:
Fill Plants for Fall Plantings
Black Eye Susans – Also called Rudbeckias, these beautiful flowers are native to North America and flower from June through September. This perennial is a wonderful staple for early fall planting and in many locations will stay vibrant even through October.
Chrysanthemums – Mum’s are a sure symbol of fall just like Pumpkins. These are wonderful plants for containers and for beds. The chrysanthemum has a rich and iconic botanical history not unlike the tulip and is a staple of the season. This plant comes in many colors and makes and excellent fill plant. The mum is a perennial so make sure to plant in the ground before the first frost if you would like it to return next year.
Zinnias – Easy to grow from nursery stock or from seed zinnias are wonderful annuals to incorporate into your plantings.

U.S. Sen. John Thune (R-S.D.), a longtime member of the Senate Committee on Agriculture, Nutrition, and Forestry, today issued the following statement after the Agriculture Committee approved, by a vote of 20-1, the Senate’s bipartisan farm bill, which now heads to the full Senate for consideration. Several Thune provisions were included in the base bill, which was introduced on June 8, and several more were included during today’s markup. Thune, who to date has introduced nearly one dozen standalone bills, which contain roughly 40 legislative initiatives and reforms to the farm bill, started this process in early 2017 in an effort to ensure a final farm bill reaches the president’s desk ahead of this fall’s expiration of the current farm bill.
“Every farm bill is important, but given today’s low commodity prices and an overall sluggish agriculture economy, it is critical that we get a new farm bill to the president’s desk before the current one expires,” said Thune. “The draft that was released last week was a good bill, but I’m glad that we were able to make it even stronger by adopting several additional amendments in the committee, including several proposals I’ve previously introduced. No bill is perfect, this one included, and while I still have a few ideas on how we can further strengthen it, the legislation we voted on today will no doubt help address the challenges producers are facing.”
Thune proposals adopted during today’s markup (click here for additional proposals included in the base bill):
- Thune’s Improved Soil Moisture and Precipitation Monitoring Act (introduced on May 23, 2018), which would provide tools and direction to the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) to help improve the accuracy of the U.S. Drought Monitor and require the coordination of USDA agencies that use precipitation data to determine livestock grazing loss assistance and stocking rates.
- Provisions of S. 909, Thune’s Conservation Program Improvement Act (introduced on April 10, 2017), which would eliminate payment limitations for rural water districts or associations that use land enrolled in the Conservation Reserve Program for wellhead protection areas.
- Additional provisions of S. 909, which would allow land enrolled in any easement program to be modified, at the owner’s expense, for water management, general maintenance, vegetative cover control, or any other purpose jointly approved by a state’s department of natural resources (or an equivalent state agency) and the State Technical Committee. Maintenance of USDA easement lands would have to provide equal or greater conservation and wildlife benefit.
Thune has served on the Agriculture Committee in both the House and Senate and is currently the only member of the South Dakota congressional delegation to serve on the committee. Thune has written three farm bills during his time in Congress, and the 2018 farm bill is his fourth. Agriculture is South Dakota’s top industry, with more than 43 million acres of agricultural land throughout the state.To learn more about Thune’s 2018 farm bill effort, please visit the farm bill section on www.thune.senate.gov.

Potato awarded special EU status
A humble Irish potato has been bestowed with special status after being singled out for protection by European law makers.
The safeguards won by the Comber Early do not mean it is off the menu, just that its name cannot be pilfered by any impostor crops.
The spud, known for being harvested early in the season, has been granted Protected Geographical Indication (PGI) status under EU law. That means only those lifted from the fields round the Co Down village can be called New Season Comber Potatoes or Comber Earlies.
The potato now joins an elite selection of brands synonymous with a particular region that have been granted the protection. Its illustrious company includes Champagne, Parma ham and feta cheese.
Comber Earlies are the second product from Northern Ireland afforded PGI recognition, following the Lough Neagh Eels.
Stormont's agriculture and rural development minister Michelle O'Neill welcomed the move.
"New Season Combers/Comber Earlies are famed for being the earliest local potato to be harvested and for their unique characteristics," she said. "We are justifiably proud of the quality of our locally produced food and it is encouraging to have our products recognised internationally.
"PGI registration is good news for the local economy and will help local growers to market New Season Combers domestically and further afield and protect against imitation. It will also build consumer confidence in this product by providing reassurance of its provenance."
Angus Wilson, of the Northern Ireland Potato Stakeholders Forum, added: "This EC recognition will allow the industry to market Comber Earlies with renewed confidence, particularly in the domestic market, and may also encourage some producers to seek to develop markets further afield.
"It is a real testament to New Season Combers that within an island known for potatoes, they can be identified as having unique characteristics."


Pressure on farming returns – resulting from a combination of lower commodity prices, a prolonged high Australian dollar and rising input costs – has seen a further slump in Australian farmer sentiment, according to the latest quarterly Rabobank Rural Confidence Survey. The nation’s farmer confidence has fallen further into negative territory, with more primary producers expecting conditions to worsen than improve.
The latest survey – completed last month – found 34% of primary producers expected the agricultural economy to worsen in the next 12 months, compared to 28% in the previous quarter. The number expecting conditions to improve fell to 12% (from 16% previously) while 51% expected conditions to remain stable.
A comprehensive monitor of outlook and sentiment in Australian rural industries, the Rabobank Rural Confidence Survey questions approximately 1200 farmers across a wide range of commodities and geographical areas throughout Australia on a quarterly basis.
Rabobank general manager Rural Australia Peter Knoblanche said many Australian farmers were feeling the pressure of a combination of overall falling commodity prices, along with a sustained historically-high Australian dollar and rising input prices. In particular, continuing weakening in prices for key commodities was negatively impacting farmer confidence.
“These factors are putting the squeeze on farm returns, or if they haven’t yet impacted, farmers are anticipating they will in the future,” Mr Knoblanche said.
“Producers are dealing with a situation where production and yield are generally favourable, but they’re not getting the profit margins they did a year ago. In part, this is due to a downturn in agricultural prices as a result of subdued investor confidence stemming from the problems in Europe and a slow-down in China’s economy. Another part is due to an over-supply in the market for some commodities off the back of favourable seasonal conditions in major production regions around the world,” he said.

Teagasc, the agriculture and food development authority in Ireland, is searching for a visionary leader to head its newly established Climate Centre in Johnstown Castle, Co. Wexford, with a salary of up to €130,000. The centre aims to accelerate research and innovation required to bring climate and biodiversity mitigation technologies for farming to deployment stage. It works in partnership with national and international organisations to provide independent scientific knowledge to help the agri-food sector reach climate neutrality and enhance biodiversity restoration.
In July 2022, the Irish government agreed that the agriculture sector is required to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 25% by 2030, compared to 2018 levels. The head of Teagasc Climate Centre will be responsible for the scientific leadership and strategic management of the resources at the centre, working closely with policymakers, other state agencies, farm representative bodies, and other organisations and businesses operating in the agri-food sector.
The successful candidate will be tasked with developing strong links with Irish and international research organisations in the area of climate mitigation, innovation, and sustainable food systems. The salary scale for the senior principal research officer position ranges from €113,688 to €130,911. The closing date for applications for the position is midday on Wednesday, June 7, 2023.
Applicants for the position must hold a PhD in sustainable agriculture or in another relevant discipline. They must also have between 5-10 years’ experience in managing or leading relevant research or knowledge transfer programmes. Candidates should have a “thorough knowledge of the Irish agri-food industry”, along with a comprehensive understanding of climate smart agriculture. They will be required to have excellent communication, organisational, delegation and time management skills, with the ability to create effective structures and systems for gathering and sharing information and transferring technology.
Teagasc has recently recruited 24 scientific staff to work at the facility, all of whom will work in partnership with the head of the Climate Centre. The organisation hopes that the new centre will become a hub for research and innovation in the agri-food sector and help Ireland to meet its greenhouse gas reduction targets.
The head of the Climate Centre will be based at the Johnstown Castle Environmental Research Centre or Teagasc Head Office in Oak Park, Co. Carlow. They will be responsible for the scientific leadership and strategic management of the resources at the centre, and will be expected to liaise extensively with policymakers, other state agencies, farm representative bodies, and other organisations and businesses operating in the agri-food sector.
The successful candidate will be a leader in their field, with a proven track record of managing or leading relevant research or knowledge transfer programmes. They should have a comprehensive understanding of climate smart agriculture and a thorough knowledge of the Irish agri-food industry. Excellent communication, organisational, delegation, and time management skills are essential, as is the ability to create effective structures and systems for gathering and sharing information and transferring technology.
Teagasc is committed to supporting the agri-food sector in its transition to a low-carbon, sustainable future. The establishment of the Climate Centre is a key part of this commitment, and the organisation hopes that the successful candidate will be an inspirational leader who can help to drive forward research and innovation in this area.

This past month has been a whirlwind between work, home, and more work. But here’s what I’ve neglected to share in a nutshell….
I survived my first April as an admissions event planner, presented for the first time at a conference, and saw Bill Nye the Science Guy at a crazy Engineering College Fair.
We’ve harvested peas, carrots, salad radishes, strawberries, canned berries, and finally, FINALLY planted all of the tomatoes in the side gardens and the back garden.
We watched one of our favorite classes graduate–we’re so proud of all of our “SB Daughters”!
Figured out that when you combine the Michael Buble, Coldplay and Yellow Ledbetter Pandora radio stations magic happens…who knew?
And we’re starting to see the signs of summer harvest. Hoping to have some delicious goodness up here on the blog soon
We joined a CSA with friends from work. I’m so excited to see what this means for this summer–so far, delicious cabbage and eggs. This week peas, strawberries, more eggs, and salad. Pictures to follow.
JGL is teaching me to golf. It’s not pretty–yet.
Because I’m trying new things and being braver, I broke down and got myself the whiskey barrel planter I’ve always wanted.
And the biggest news on the horizon is that we’re attempting to tackle some inside projects–bathroom first, and then we’ll see where we go from there. Lots going on, and still more to do!


My husband and I bought a house 4 years ago with a neglected yard. Since then we've been working on indoor projects, and further neglecting the lawn. It's more weeds and crabgrass than lawn now, with serious divets and holes to the point someone could sprain an ankle walking through it. I bought a Scotts Lawn care book, but it doesn't give me a clear picture of how to start this daunting project. Once I'm down to bare soil, the directions are clear. But how do I get the old stuff off and levelled, to be ready for new topsoil and seed? I'd love suggestions on what tools are needed (bobcat, dumptruck, blowtorch etc. *laugh*), as well as how to specifically use the tools to get the yard level. In addition, if I need to scrape anything off, can it be composted/reused or should it be hauled away? Thanks in advance.

So i had these two seedlings who sprouted then wilted from underwatering their first week of life.
they have since recovered from their wilt for the most part and were doing pretty well until i noticed their green color started fading.
i had them in a humidity dome
for about a week following their wilt and had them under 24/0 light (using a 32w led blue-white spectrum).
not sure if this is being caused by too much or too little light?
please let me know your thoughts. any help is appreciated as this is all very new to me and i am trying to learn as i go.

You are in hardiness zone 9 and those trees are hardy in zones 10 and 11. You could try it with winter protection and see how it does. You can mail order seeds from a reputable seed catalog company. (I would discourage buying from individuals. We hear from many disappointed folks who write in and say they only received a weed.) A Florida nursery or catalog may have them since they are popular in Florida.
These articles should help.


Yup, im back at it again with some gorilla glue #4 bag seeds. One is about a week or so behind the other 2. I grew one of these bag seeds very quickly 12/12 from seed. Quality was off the charts but was a low yield so hoping for some weight this time around. Next water they get 5.5 ph from now on and their first dose of Supre Mycos tea and some mammoth p. (just been giving them un phd bottled water thats why the leaves are burnt on the tips.)
9-25-17 put 2 gorilla glue #4 in water. They soaked until showing roots on 9-27-17. Planted 9-27-17. Sprouted 9-30-17. 10-3-17 put another seed in water. Soaked until showing roots on 10-5-17. Sprouted 10-8-17. They all are in 89c polar pops styrofoam cups with royal golds tupur coco with chunky perlite mixed in. I plan on letting them go for 4-5 weeks in the cups until 5-6 nodes. Then transplant to 5 gallon buckets for 4-5 weeks veg time and then transplanting to 15 gallons, letting veg another 2 or so weeks to get some extra roots in the bigger pots then flipping to flower. Also Thinking of scroggin 2 and just lst and tie down the other one down.
Temps are good since summer is over, leaving me with a cool 60s lights off and mid 70s lights on and its only getting colder from this point. With a RH of 35 to 50. Eventually gonna have to hook up my 315 Cmh to warm the room up, but as of now they are under a mars hydro 600 watt. Will add the 3 king 800 leds in a few weeks once they hit 5 nodes, followed by the 315 Cmh light.Hoping the temps play along so i can hook the 315 cmh with leds as early as possible to get the biggest thickest plants in veg and the best dense colas in flower. Will be doing weekly picture updates and keeping good track of nutes and water this time around. Hoping for a decent amount of good meds to hold me over till spring and i can try to grow some succesful outdoor meds.

Western Victoria and South East South Australia Rural Report, 24/07
Federal policy on agricultural skills shortage compared
Agriculture needs scientists, engineers, software designers and entrepreneurs.
There's so many jobs to do, and not enough people to do them.
The Australian Council of Deans of Agriculture says there's 4000 graduate level positions available, for about 700 graduates each year.
Lower lakes recovery process
After more than a decade of drought, returning the Murray Darling's lower lakes system to health is a long process that takes a lot of hard work.
Since 2010 the system has been back in flow - but the period of dry has had a profound effect not only on the environment but on the people who live there
Kim Rumbelow, from the Department of Environment, Water and Natural Resources says revegetation projects have returned one million plants to the area.
Forward contracting this season's grain
Lydia Rich, from CBH, says more South Australian farmers have locked in price contracts for this season's grain, than Victorian farmers.


Wheat futures hit record high of £222/t
HAVING broken through record levels last week, with the May 2013 contract ending the week at £219.35/t, the London market moved up another notch on Monday to £222/t for the same period.
This meant feed wheat futures were up by about £18 on the month. And in the physical (delivered) market, premiums for next spring remain strong with May 2013 feed wheat at more than £12/t ahead of the current month, November.
The HGCA said sluggish demand in the spot market - caused by a lack of traditional autumn export business - and concern for supplies later in the season were the main drivers of the stronger prices.

Advanta is the culmination of a joint venture between two well-established and progressive seed enterprises: the Royal Vanderhave Group from the Netherlands and Zeneca Seeds from the United Kingdom. Established in 1996, the business has developed into a major force in a rapidly changing seed industry. Our company has a rich tradition in plant breeding. The foundations of important R&D programmes in maize, grasses, cereals and sugar beet were laid in the first half of the 20th century.
Nowadays, this experience is combined with modern science and technology. Advanta is focussed on the future whilst preserving our traditional values.

Syngenta statement on unsolicited preliminary approach from Monsanto
Michel Demaré, Syngenta Chairman said, “Syngenta is the world leader in Crop Protection, the number three in Seeds and the first company to introduce integrated solutions for growers. Monsanto’s proposal does not reflect the outstanding growth prospects of Syngenta’s integrated strategy and the significant future value potential of the company’s crop-focused innovation and market leading positions.
“While Syngenta’s valuation is currently affected by short term currency and commodity price movements, the business outlook is strong, with emerging markets accounting for over 50% of our sales. Our integrated strategy has been particularly successful in these markets which in 2014 registered double digit growth rates for the fifth consecutive year, and which represent a major part of the future growth potential for our industry. Recently launched new products are achieving rapid sales growth globally as growers demand the latest technologies, and we have a strong pipeline of innovative crop protection products in development, which have total peak sales potential of over $3 billion.
“In 2015, we are on track to achieve the first $265 million of savings from our Accelerating Operational Leverage Program, and we are targeting savings of $1 billion in 2018. This will allow us to realize the full benefits of the integrated strategy and will ensure that increases in profitability are sustained for the benefit of Syngenta’s shareholders.”

Monsanto Comments On Proposal for Syngenta
Monsanto has long respected and followed Syngenta`s business and believes combining the two companies would deliver significant value to all stakeholders, including shareholders. Creating a new company from the combination of Syngenta`s strengths and leadership in crop protection chemicals and Monsanto`s leadership in seeds, traits and information technology would form an integrated global leader in agriculture with comprehensive and complementary product portfolios, and an Ag-focused organization with enhanced abilities to develop and accelerate innovative solutions for growers. Monsanto believes the combined company would be uniquely positioned to deliver a comprehensive suite of integrated solutions to farmers around the world and to accelerate technological innovation through precision agriculture and advanced research and development capabilities aimed at increasing the world`s food supply in a sustainable fashion.
Monsanto believes a combination would deliver significant value to shareholders of both companies. The combination is expected to result in substantial synergies as the company delivers more integrated solutions to customers.
Monsanto, in conjunction with its financial and legal advisors, has devoted significant time and resources to analyzing a potential combination of Syngenta and Monsanto and is confident in its ability to obtain all necessary regulatory approvals.
Monsanto does not intend to make any additional comments on this matter at this time.
Syngenta Rejects $45 Billion Takeover Offer From Monsanto
Syngenta AG, the world’s largest maker of agricultural chemicals, rejected a 41.7 billion Swiss-franc ($45 billion) takeover offer from U.S. rival Monsanto Co., saying it undervalued the company and a merger would have significant execution risks.
Monsanto proposed paying 449 Swiss francs a share with 45 percent in cash, Basel-based Syngenta said Friday in a statement, confirming a Bloomberg report that it had received and rejected an offer while leaving the door open for further talks. The Swiss company’s shares surged the most in more than 14 years in Zurich.
A deal would make Monsanto, a U.S. maker of genetically modified seeds and weedkillers, into the largest player in both seeds and crop chemicals. It timed its approach with a lull in Syngenta’s performance amid currency moves and lower crop prices. Syngenta said the offer is too low as it bets that the benefits from grouping products into specific crop units -- from seeds to herbicides -- will soon accelerate, adding to extra sales from a slate of new technologies.
“The long-term outlook of Syngenta is good, so I can understand that they are asking for a higher premium,” Patrick Rafaisz, an analyst at Bank Vontobel AG, said by phone. “These two companies have different corporate cultures. So it will be difficult to merge them without inefficiencies.”
Syngenta climbed 19 percent to 396.90 francs in Zurich, the biggest increase since the shares began trading in November 2000, valuing the company at 36.9 billion francs. Monsanto rose 1.4 percent to $120.79 in New York.
The offer values Syngenta at about 17 times its earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization in the last 12 months. Large agrochemical transactions in the last decade have commanded a median multiple of about 12 times, so a purchase of Syngenta would also rank as one of the industry’s more expensive deals, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.
Combining Syngenta’s leading pesticide products with Monsanto’s expertise in genetically modified seeds “would form an integrated global leader in agriculture,” St. Louis-based Monsanto said in a statement Friday. “The combined company would be uniquely positioned to deliver a comprehensive suite of integrated solutions to farmers around the world and to accelerate technological innovation.”
The company said it’s “confident” in its ability to obtain regulatory approvals for the deal.
The companies held preliminary talks last year with advisers about a combination, before Syngenta’s management decided against negotiations, people familiar with the matter said at the time. No agreement was reached after concerns were raised about the strategic fit, antitrust issues and the location of headquarters.
If the Monsanto-Syngenta deal goes through, it would be the biggest ever acquisition of a European company by a U.S. rival, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. The deal would’ve only been exceeded by Pfizer Inc.’s attempted purchase of AstraZeneca Plc last year and AbbVie Inc.’s plan to buy drugmaker Shire Plc, both of which were abandoned.
Tempting Syngenta to the negotiating table and agreeing to terms would also make Monsanto a formidable competitor to Bayer AG, BASF SE, Dupont Co. and Dow Chemical Co. Syngenta is the world’s largest maker of crop chemicals whereas Monsanto is the largest maker of seeds and dominates the global market for genetically modified crops like corn and soybeans.
Still, Syngenta Chairman Michel Demare said Friday the offer isn’t good enough.
“Monsanto’s proposal does not reflect the outstanding growth prospects of Syngenta’s integrated strategy and the significant future value potential of the company’s crop-focused innovation and market leading positions,” he said. “While Syngenta’s valuation is currently affected by short-term currency and commodity price movements, the business outlook is strong.”
Demare said the offer also underestimates significant execution risks, including regulatory and public scrutiny in many countries.
To address antitrust issues, Monsanto has planned for a deal that would include a sale of portions of the combined business, a person familiar with the matter said last month. The U.S. company last year reached out to potential bidders for those assets, including Bayer, this person said.
The largest business overlaps are the North American and Latin American herbicide markets as well as in seeds in North America, according to Morgan Stanley analysts Paul Walsh and Charles Webb.
Monsanto’s dominance in the seed industry has been the subject of U.S. antitrust probes at the federal and state levels. The U.S. Justice Department’s antitrust division dropped its probe into possible anti-competitive practices in the seed industry in 2012, and a month later at least seven states led by Iowa ended their five-year investigation without taking action.
The company has also been criticized by environmental groups such as Greenpeace that oppose its development of genetically modified crops.

Sector ‘completely hamstrung’ by legal restrictions
Sligo News File
Ireland’s multi-million horticulture industry is on the brink of being wiped out, an Oireachtas committee has been told.
The threat is the second major shock for the rural community coming almost immediately on the heels of the previously announced closure of the Bord Na Mona peat operations.
Horticulture, with a farm gate value of nearly €480 million, employs a workforce of nearly 18,000 but with supplies of crucially needed Irish peat moss being taken off the market, its future is said to be now heavily endangered.
Industry representatives, in a recent meeting with members of the Oireachtas committee on agriculture, have said the sector is “completely hamstrung” by the current legal position on peat production in Ireland and Bord Na Mona’s exit from peat activity.
“The law is impossible. The horticulture industry is facing enforced closure by September this year, it will be wiped out. Transport costs have gone up 300pc and the cost of peat is 50pc higher.”
While this is happening, and the government moving to convert peatlands into sinks for atmospheric carbon dioxide as part of the ‘green’ battle against climate change, it’s reported that boatloads of peat alternatives – with consequent major carbon footprints – are being shipped into the country from places as far away as the Baltic States, Sri Lanka and Indonesia.
A representative for mushroom producers has warned, however, that there is no available alternative for the Bord Na Mona peat moss used by growers as the primary component for casing layers in the cultivation of the mushroom crop. He said research had been carried out as far apart as Australia and South Africa to identify alternatives “but to no avail.
“In fact, in South Africa an alternative was proposed from sugar beet or sugar bagasse. When it was introduced to the industry there it was a failure,” he added.
It has also been pointed out that the “viability of an alternative use to peat coming on stream soon is highly unlikely.”
While green waste is being researched, its use, it was noted, “presents many challenges due to its low air status, its low stability and the possibility of impurities. …it is certainly not an answer for inclusion in compost.”
It was stated that currently “we are seeing the addition of up to 30% alternatives, such as wood fibre in peat, but it is a long-term research programme to find a suitable compost mix.
“We will be importing significant quantities of plants because if we are not producing here we certainly will have to import from elsewhere.” Continuing, the speaker said, “there could be significant biosecurity issues for the environment etc.
“There is also, of course, the additional carbon footprint of transporting peat, mainly from the Baltic states, and possibly from Russia in the future.
“Internationally, there is no benefit in the world in doing this,” he said.
A growers group representative said: “The growth of the nursery industry is directly related to the availability of Irish peat.”
He said: “In the midlands within a radius of 25 miles of Tullamore, there are 25 nurseries employing approximately 250 workers generating a total output in excess of €15 million.”
Quoting from a Teagasc submission to the recent review of peat in horticulture and the key industry issues, it stated, he said, “There are currently no other abundant materials that have suitable properties at an affordable cost. Selecting any other material currently requires a grower to compromise in terms of crop risk where aspects of crop husbandry, yield and quality are potentially impacted and currently under-researched.”
The government has announced that Dr. Munoo Prasad who worked as an independent consultant for Bord Na Mona has now been appointed to head up a working group to examine a recent review on the use of peat moss.

The new Interfaith of The Woodlands Veggie Village Donation Garden plot in The Woodlands, Tx has been selected.
Interfaith of The Woodlands Veggie Village Donation Garden is scheduled to be located at Alden Bridge Sports Park on Highway 242, adjacent to a Woodlands Township Community Garden.
The Woodlands Township Board voted in November to extend a Park Use Agreement to Interfaith of The Woodlands for a quarter-acre space for a minimum of five years.
The Woodlands Township agreed to clear, fill and grade the area, and provide plumbing to the site and fencing.
Dr. Ann Snyder, President and CEO of Interfaith of The Woodlands, stated ""Interfaith is extremely fortunate to have the support of The Woodlands Township. Through this partnership, the garden will be a welcoming place where people work and learn together to provide fresh food for the hungry through Interfaith of The Woodlands Food Pantry.""
""We are very excited about this garden, which will provide fresh produce for the Food Pantry. In addition, Veggie Village will provide earth-friendly educational opportunities to compliment what the township is already doing so well,"" added Sylvia Campbell, member of the Veggie Village planning committee.
Within the next couple months, the groundbreaking of the location is planned to occur.
The Veggie Village project is scheduled to depend on the support from the whole community.
Not only will assistance tending and harvesting the garden, but individuals to give the produce to Interfaith of The Woodlands and master gardeners to assist in educating people of all ages about garden.

About Korby Sod Greeley Colorado
We've been growing, delivering and installing quality Turfgrass in Colorado, Wyoming and more for over 38 years! Our most popular blends are our VorTEX Hybrid Bluegrass Blend, Athletic Sports Turf Bluegrass Blend and Black Beauty Tall Fescue Blend.
The sod was delivered on time and in full and looked great. Over all, this place was the most competitive for prices and I never had an issue while speaking with them and placing my order.
Steve provided a thoughtful recommendation on type of sod best suited for my needs and delivered fresh sod despite weather challenges.
The team at Korby Sod was so easy to work with. They provided multiple quotes, sod recomendations and accomidated our schedule change. Install for our residence is Saturday, yet another "above and beyond: accomidation. Thank you Korby Sod - will certainly recommend your company!
I am from Wyoming and in my area good fresh sod is hard to find and if not timley & expensive to get. So on one of my trips to Colorado I gave Korby Sod a call and with short notice they had new freshly cut sod ready for me to pick up. They even stayed after hours to get me loaded!! We were so pleased with the price and quality a friend had me pick up a second load for them! I even had a small clerical error on my invoice for payment. When I called Korby Sod's office they were very pleasant to talk with and the problem was fixed quickly! Thanks and Great Work to: Steve, Megan, and Katie. *****Highly Recommended*****
I have had sod installed in Northern Colorado and in the past, I was pleased with the work and the outcome. However, after having sod installed in my residence in Fort Collins by Korby Sod, I have to say that the result far exceeded my expectations. First, the quality of the sod was superb. The crew arrived in a timely fashion and took ample time to prepare the area, removing weeds, adding mulch, leveling the land, etc. The prep work was far better than what I have seen from other installers. Next, the sod was laid according to the plan that I described, except that, the expert sod layers made the finished product look better than I had drawn. I cannot express how pleased my family and friends are with the result! It looks like Disneyland. Now, we need to add mulch and other landscaping features around the grassy areas to create a finished look. We will have to up our game to match the quality that Korby Sod's crew provided. Finally, I want to say that it was a pleasure working with the front office. Kyle was very helpful and answered all my questions prior to the job, and Kyle and his colleagues followed up with me after the job to make sure everything was to my satisfaction. Thank you very much! I have already recommended Korby Sod to others in my neighborhood.
I was impressed with the customer service at Korby from the get-go. They were very helpful and informative and made sure to explain all the differences between their various blends of grass. We ended up going with the Athletic Blend of bluegrass to finish our back yard. They are very straightforward with their pricing and can let you know right over the phone exactly what you'll be paying for the sod, what delivery will be (delivery costs were very reasonable), and when the sod will be delivered. The sod was fresh-cut the morning of delivery which made a huge difference in how well it's been doing. We had almost no dry edges on the sod even after a couple weeks, and it took root very quickly. I wouldn't hesitate to get sod from Korby Sod again - they were super easy to work with, and the sod has been great. We love how our back yard looks! Thank you!
Hi, My husband's experience with Korby Sod was fantastic. When I first called, everything was explained to me very well. Korby accepted credit cards, which is always a plus, since we don't like to carry cash. My husband said the employees were great to work with. As a business owner himself, it means a lot to hear compliments about employees. We also liked the pallet return system. Thanks for this opportunity to comment on your company. PS The property you are located on is beautiful!
Great company and very fair pricing. They fit my little job in quickly and did not charge crazy fees for me having a small job like other places in the area.
