One of the most beautiful things about this strain is its XXL-sized yield. It is a fast turnover of an extremely high-quality product, making it great for commercial growers. Its incredible popularity also makes it a clever choice for commercial growers, or even small-time growers, to invest in. Just like a perfectly balanced sativa-indica hybrid, it grows to be about average height and has a low to average flowering time of 55-70 days. It has thick, strong branches to support its thick, lusciously heavy buds. It will grow indoors or outdoors, but in outdoor situations, it requires a sunnier, warmer climate. These seeds are regular seeds, meaning that they will produce both male and female plants.
The reason this strain is called the "White" Widow is because of an extremely generous frosting of white trichomes from Mother Nature. This should be an indication of how potent this strain is! Its effects are an incredibly high euphoria and happy mood, although it is quite relaxed. This is perfect for social gatherings or for creative energy. The strength and potency of this weed make it extremely pungent, with an earthy, woody aroma.
Overall, White Widow is a great strain to have growing in the garden. It is a delight to watch its buds flower into clusters of beautiful white crystals, and it looks absolutely wonderful in the garden. It produces so much bud there's no way you could be disappointed, and the strength and effects make it one of the best seeds to buy. This is a top-rated strain!

"The family is the best source of labor for the small-scale farm. ... Why? Because farming is hard work, and the rewards at the start are measured more in satisfaction and pride than in large salaries. The farm family will do the work because it is their dream. It is their canvas, and they are painting it the way they've always wanted it to look."

This is it...our little plot at Stony Kill is finished for the season. Saturday was clean-up day, so Nance and I zipped out to help clear stakes and rocks from the field. We harvested what was left of the collard greens, then went on our merry Halloween way.
It sure was a rough season...too much rain, not enough warm, the Late Blight & squash bug disaster... It's almost enough to make one give up (and there sure were more abandoned plots this year than in the past). But while it could have been much better, we did have a lot of success: Our peppers did well (this season's jelly ROCKS), we discovered maxixe, the red cabbage and nasturtiums were the spiciest ever, and we had lots of fun playing with the things that did survive. It seems like years have passed since I sowed seeds in my Manhattan windows, but it was a wonderfully educational summer!
See ya in the spring, little patch of Earth!

Bird of Paradise Not Growing
My plants are not growing at all. They have been stagnant for several years. I use fertilizer and water regularly. Nothing has worked.
Certified GKH Gardening Expert
If it has been cool, this may be stunting them a bit. Also, if the light conditions where they are have changed over the years (trees got bigger, buildings were put up that block light, etc.), they may have too little light.


My planning ideas and goals for the 2021 season and what new growers need to plan.
It’s the end or start of your season, what can you do right now giant pumpkin grower?
Could the COVID-19 crisis change giant pumpkin growing in the future? Maybe. In this blog post I cover some areas I think it could affect.


*Sorry that this post comes so late....I know I pressed the post button back in November but I guess some higher power didn't want it out there Hahaha!
This is what I woke up to this morning.
I went out in the snowing and blowing and picked the last teeny tiny eggplant that had finally decided to bear fruit....and pulled the plants.I checked the Brussel Sprouts(Brussels Sprout...you tell me)and they are still pea sized. I planted them plenty early enough for full sized Sprouts so I give up on this type of crop....they are just too cheap and tasty from the Market this time of year for me to struggle with something that takes up precious garden space but gives me nothing in return. There is still Kale looking Hale and Hearty ....but everything else is gone or done.... I guess it really is time to consider the growing season done for this year.


Maybe you’re tired of me talking about my Alliums every spring and summer. But I have something new to say about ‘Purple Sensation’ that you can’t say about every Allium.
Namely, that this Allium variety, at least in my garden, really is an almost no-maintenance plant. I started this patch of ‘Purple Sensation’ in the back garden over 10 years ago. The patch has gotten bigger every year. However, it gives no sign of needing lifting and dividing. And did I mention that it is thriving in part shade?
This is the same patch looking the other direction. I did discover this May that Clematis ‘Guernsey Cream’ is a nice companion for this Allium variety.
I planted a second patch of ‘Purple Sensation’ south of the ‘Donald Wyman’ crabapple. Though this is a dryer, sunnier spot, the performance here has been basically the same, though this second patch is usually a few days ahead of the first. Despite this year’s cold spring, both patches started blooming early this year. Thanks to the drought and a brief mid-May heat wave, they finished earlier than normal, especially in the newer patch. Ditto for the foliage dying back.
In the Back Garden the variety ‘Mt. Everest’ is blooming. This is its second season and there is no sign of spreading, nor have the flower heads gotten smaller. Unfortunately there is one fewer than there should be, as I accidentally broke one of the stems. Clumsy.
Glad I planted this one.
These days I ask myself why I ever got excited about Allium karataviense. The foliage is supposed to be something special, but is it? Though it may not be the Allium’s fault. It was subject to an emergency transplant into the Back Raised Bed that was done with little thought as to how it would fit in with its neighbors.
When I first planted Allium ‘Globemaster’ its 10″ flowerheads inspired awe. Though it has multiplied, these days it looks a little pathetic. I swear this is the year I will finally lift and divide these bulbs. By the middle of June. You have permission to castigate me if it doesn’t get done.
Well, that’s all I have on this year’s May-blooming Alliums. More Alliums to come as we go through summer. This is a flower that I’ve come to think of as essential to our garden. As of now, we have nine species or varieties, though admittedly some are more successful than others. And remember, Alliums are good for bees and rabbit-resistant.


Farmers throughout Madhya Pradesh have expressed combined reactions to the 2 farm payments pushed via the Rajya Sabha – amid unprecedented chaos and fierce protests by each the opposition and several other farmers’ teams – on Sunday.
Some have welcomed the payments and sit up for having the ability to promote their produce at markets of their selecting. Others, nonetheless, concern the MSP system – underneath which the federal government purchases their produce at a minimal assist value – will step by step disappear, and personal purchasers will set decrease costs.
Nonetheless others – marginal farmers struggling to outlive – say they’re “not scared” as a result of they by no means obtained any assist from the federal government to start with.
“It’s as much as the federal government but when merchants are coming to the village and the mandi (market) can also be there, I feel we will get value,” Ganga Prasad Verma, who owns 30 acres of land close to Sehore district headquarters, says.
Nevertheless, not everybody within the village is satisfied.
Chuapal Gheesilal Mewada needs the federal government to make sure MSPs stay so farmers should not pressured to promote at decrease, and probably loss-making, costs.
The hyperlink between MSPs and “aggressive” costs supplied by non-public purchasers worries some farmers.
Chain Singh, one other farmer in the identical village, makes that time: “I’m nervous… generally they ask for Rs 1,400 or Rs 1,500 per quintal of wheat. Merchants won’t take heed to us. They may take the produce as per their want”.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who this morning (and yesterday) hailed the payments as “historic”, has pressured that MSPs (and authorities buy of produce) will proceed as earlier than. Farmers, nonetheless, don’t seem totally satisfied and, in close by Ramnagar, the youthful farmers are towards the invoice.
Rajendra Meena, in his 30s with a household of six to be fed off 25 acres, says the per quintal value of wheat has dropped from Rs 2,000 to Rs 1,400 and that “now we can’t get MSP if non-public corporations come”.
“The federal government ought to take steps to make farmers perceive what the payments are how we might be benefitted by them,” Rakesh Meena provides.
In Bordi, some farmers make that very same level – that they do not perceive elements of the payments.
“MSP, contract farming and promoting produce outdoors mandis are clear, however there are some factors that ought to have been mentioned with farmers at state degree. We’ve got no readability,” Jagdish Mewada says.
In the meantime, in Kanheria marginal farmers have merely shrugged their shoulders on the drama in Delhi on Sunday. “We aren’t scared. We’re barely capable of feed ourselves and have by no means obtained any assist from the federal government,” Kaluram says. “We’re solely involved about water for irrigation,” Laad Singh provides.
Grain retailers have additionally expressed reservations, claiming that the authorities is performing underneath stress from massive corporates. Jayant Patel, a wheat dealer from Sehore mandi, says farmers had earlier been inspired by non-public corporations to plant gooseberries… just for nobody to come back and purchase it.
“There isn’t a point out of MSP. We’ve got been doing enterprise for a minimum of 50 years. The place will we go? They only need to monopolise by eradicating small merchants,” he declared.

In 2005, the Colbran family—that manages the Baroida estate—started putting into place a system of purchasing coffee from neighboring farms that was transparent and focused around buying the most-ripe cherry possible from the farmers of the surrounding region. Over the years, it has been a struggle to have such high standards, but they have continued to find new partners interested in following best practices, and, with this year’s Tairora lot, it shows.
Explanation of the Name
Tairora is the name of the largest tribe in the area where this coffee is grown, and, because this coffee comes from growers in many different villages in the Eastern Highlands, the Colbran family gave this name to the coffee to best recognize the people with whom they work.
Eastern Highlands, Papua New Guinea
The coffee-growing region of Papua New Guinea's Eastern Highlands is one of the most remote places on earth. The region's legendary biodiversity, rich topsoil, elevation, and perfect weather make it one of the planet's most unusual microclimates. Baroida and the communities associated with the Tairora coffee sit scattered outside the town of Kainantu in the Eastern Highlands of Papua New Guinea. This part of the Eastern Highlands is mostly rolling grasslands, but it has remarkable climate and great conditions for growing coffee.
The lowest altitude we saw around the plantation was just under 1,600 meters, but can reach as high as 1,900 meters. Baroida itself was one of the first coffee farms in the area, and much of the coffee planted by small producers of the Tairora coffee actually originally came from seeds from the Baroida Estate. Some of the villages and people in the area that turn in coffee to the Tairora coffee include Boka, Kantuera, Kobuta, Abiera, and the Bonta village. These areas and people who contribute to the Tairora coffee have between 2 and 25 hectares of coffee and grow an assortment of fruits and vegetables and a few other cash crops.
Papua New Guinea, in general, is a late-comer to the production of coffee, really only starting in the 1920s and not taking off until the 1950s. Today, Papua New Guinea is renowned for how remote and culturally diverse it is. This remoteness kept outside visitors from venturing into the Papua New Guinea highlands until the early 1900s. This remoteness also led to another popular fact about Papua New Guinea, which is that the hundreds of individual tribes in the country speak more than 800 documented languages among all of them. It is often stated that certain tribes did not know of other tribes living as close as a few kilometers away because of rugged terrain and the remoteness of the highlands.

I’ve spent some time moving plants this week. I have a ton of seedlings from my Agastache, so I separated some clumps and have planted them in various places:
The parent plants of these did not make it through the winter, but I wonder if the offspring will have better luck. I hope so! I love the Agastache and don’t want to have to treat them as annuals.
I am giving up on marigolds from seed. I don’t like the little yellow and orange ones that are ubiquitous at garden centers. I like the creamy vanilla French marigolds. Last year I grew some from seed and they didn’t get buds on them until October and then frost killed the plants before the buds even opened. I thought maybe it was a fluke since we had such a cold spring, so I tried again this year. This is how they look now:
Buds are just forming and it’s most of the way through September. I might have to try starting them indoors in January or something. See a couple of the little Agastache around the marigolds?
My zinnias have really taken off. The giant lavender gems have actually become giant! Some are almost 5 feet tall.
I have bulbs on order and the shipments are starting to arrive. While not really bulbs, I got some Dutchman’s breeches. They are in the bleeding heart family:
Photo from American Meadows. I think they can be finicky to get to grow, but I’m going to try them in my shade garden and by the water feature and see what happens. They look so cool!


I bought your gutter kit at the Southport Flower Show and am very happy with it! It is a great idea and my other half is considering one for his allotment shed, thank you.

Instead of getting down on your hands and knees to ready your soil by hand, let powerful garden tillers do the work for you. Rotary tillers are unsurpassed for breaking new ground, breaking up large soil clumps, digging furrows, and mixing in soil amendments, compost, and cover crops. (But be careful not to over-till because it destroys soil structure.
Digging Tools - You use a shovel mainly for digging, but some have other specialized uses, including making deep, narrow holes; edging; moving stuff around, and trenching. The shovel is the mainstay and workhorse of the garden shed. Round-Point Shovel - Rounded shovels usually have a beveled edge to help penetrate tough soil situations. They may also have a point to push into soil. The edges are curved to facilitate scooping. Handles are the height at which most people stand and can be ergonomically angled. Grips are often cushioned to prevent blisters. This is the workhorse of the garden, found in virtually every tool shed. It has a rounded blade with a point that permits easier ground penetration. The blade is slightly hollowed, allowing you to scoop dirt, mulch and more, and move it around.

Welfare impacts of smallholder farmers’ participation in maize and pigeonpea markets in Tanzania
Discipline of Agricultural Economics, School of Agricultural, Earth and Environmental Sciences, University of KwaZulu-Natal, Private Bag X01, Scottsville, Pietermaritzburg, South Africa; Selian Agricultural Research Institute (SARI), P.O. Box 6024, Arusha, Tanzania
This paper evaluates the impact of maize and pigeonpea market participation and the level of participation on household welfare measured by consumption expenditure in rural Tanzania. The study used cross-sectional farm household level data collected in 2010 from 700 randomly selected households in northern and eastern zones of Tanzania. Propensity score matching and endogenous switching regression techniques were employed to address the welfare impacts of market participation for binary treatment, while linear regression was employed to address the welfare impacts of the level of market participation. Maize and pigeonpea market participation and the level of participation had positive and significant impacts on the welfare of rural households. On average, maize and pigeonpea market participation increased consumption expenditure per capita in the range of 19.2–20.4 % and 28.3–29.4 %, respectively. Similarly, a one unit increase in the predicted level of market participation increased per capita consumption expenditure by 0.5 and 0.3 %, for both maize and pigeonpea, respectively. This confirms the potential role of market participation and the level of participation in improving rural household welfare, as higher consumption expenditures from market participation also mean improved food security and reduced poverty. Policies aimed at reducing the transaction costs of accessing markets such as improved market information, rural infrastructure and household capacity to produce surplus production are critical to the improvement of household welfare. © 2015, Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht and International Society for Plant Pathology.


On the weekend we drove to Rush’s to pick up some veggies for dinner. I don’t know how their veggies get soooo big! and not only are they bigggg they are soooo fresh and delicious. We have been enjoying their corn all fall too.
Aren’t these broccoli bigggg..wonder how many one of these would feed for dinner?
These cabbage were monsterous and only $2.00 each. You can judge how large they are by how few fit in a basket. Yummy. I can just taste cabbage rolls…or saurkraut…or coleslaw…mmmmmmm….
Their pumpkin patches sure were filled with pumpkins. I chose the bottom gourd and I’ll wait until its all dried out and then I’ll see what I can do with it. Maybe it’ll be a swan….or a snake….or maybe just a pretty birdhouse. Apparently I have to wait until next summer before its all dry and ready to be worked with.
Everything looked so good. They made up little pumpkin decorations and sold cut flowers in mason jars. They grow the flowers in a huge flower garden in the field beside this stand. One stop shopping of delicious veggies and decorations. This is what fall is all about!

Review of Canyon Farmers’ Market by TexasRealFood
The Canyon Farmers’ Market is a seasonal Saturday market located at the historic Courthouse Square in Canyon, Texas. Held between June and late September or early October (or until the first freeze), it aims to support local growers, artisans, and bakers by giving them access to the community in a fun and vibrant environment. It also hopes to increase commerce and to educate the community on healthy eating. Market hours are between 8:00am to 12:00pm. They also have a special holiday market in November.
The season highlight is their annual Farm-To-Table Dinner held late September, which gathers visitors for a unique “locavore’s delight”. Local chefs prepare the dinner using ingredients coming directly from participating producers.

The squash and zucchini and the corn planted in the round bins did not get the message to grow, however. The corn in the metal bins was planted at the same time as the corn in the main garden behind it. I have no idea why it never grew.

Hemming Anderson, a Swedish native, embarked on a journey to America in 1882, seeking better opportunities. After landing in New York, he made his way to South Dakota and settled in Vermillion. With determination, he improved his land, starting from a humble tent and later upgrading to a sod house. Anderson’s hard work paid off as he transformed his farm into a prosperous enterprise, cultivating acres of land and raising livestock. He actively supported education and the Republican Party, while he and his wife remained dedicated members of the Lutheran Church. Despite the loss of two sons, their daughter thrived and became a respected member of the community.

Answer: Your hydrangeas form flower buds on last year's wood. So do not prune them in the early spring or summer. Many live branches look a bit dead for a while in the spring. Later, when you are sure a stem or branch is truly dead and the rest of the plant has leafed out, you could remove it.
If you are seeing a lot of winter kill, then it may be that they are in too cold a location. Protection from wind may help if that is the case. Keep in mind too that an established plant will be more able to handle cold than a newly planted one.
To prune, wait until right after they have bloomed and trim -- if they need any pruning. It's best to make sure they are planted where they have enough room to grow.
Finally, when fertilizing, follow the label instructions. Too much fertilizer is not any better than too little and may cause overly lush foliage growth at the expense of flowers. Established plants will normally outperform more recently planted ones. It sounds like your plants are growing well and should bloom for you next summer.

Tomato Seedlings Have Wilted??
2 weeks ago I sowed two types of tomato seed and I kept them in a unheated propagator on a window sill with lots of light and warmth.
Yesterday I re-potted them into plugs, (they are about 2" high by now) and, left them in my unheated shed which has lots of sun during the day.
When I looked at them this afternoon all but 3 had wilted and are now lying sadly on the surface of the soil!
I only re potted after the first pair of true leaves had appeared.
Have I over watered or is it due to a drastic temp change and why have 3 survived and the rest not?
Any help appreciated

Hi, I have an Annabelle Hydrangea. It appears very healthy with lots of growth but every year this Hydrangea gets leaf rollers (only plant affected in the area) and flower heads that emerge are flat like they stopped half way to becoming full developed balls. Even the flowerets do not fully emerge. The flowers look like Queen Anne’s Lace. I planted this bush 4 years ago and the first year it was fine but for the last 2 seasons I’ve had these deformed flower heads. Are the leaf rollers the problem or is there something else going on? I read the response on how to deal with the Leaf Rollers on Hydrangeas and will try to remove the affected leaves better this year. Last year I hand picked the insects off the plant.
Although Leaf Rollers are certainly an irritating pest, they do not cause the kind of change to flower heads that you describe. If you cleared up the plant debris under your hydrangea last summer and fall, you may find that you do not have as serious a Leaf Roller problem this year: hopefully you will have removed any pupating caterpillars you missed on the leaves. What you are doing to control them is the most efficient way to make sure that you rid yourself of them.
If your Annabelle bloomed normally and fully the first year, and produced a lacy bloom more recently, there are a couple of possibilities. The propagation of your Hydrangea arborescens ‘Annabelle’ may be an issue. Annabelle should be propagated from cuttings in order to be certain that the cultivar remains reliable over time and it does not revert to its “wild” source. A new stem emerging from the root, and not from the crown of the plant, may produce a flower that looks more like a “lacecap” – the typical Queen Anne’s Lace-like bloom of the wild species H. arborescens. For this reason, we are often advised to buy a hydrangea when it is in bloom. Can ‘Annabelle’ revert to its wild source? Here is an article in which one horticulturalist discusses a similar – and very interesting – question of reversion: https://web.extension.illinois.edu/askextension/thisQuestion.cfm?QuestionID=24686&catID=34&AskSiteID=34
If you left your seed heads on the plant throughout the winter (a really great idea) it is possible that your Annabelle produced seed that germinated under your existing plant.

This lovely lady is a gem in the House of the Great Gardener's collection. We crossed the Purps with the GG #1 to give the Purps a stronger structure, and the best phenotypes were put to the members of a local compassion club to choose their favourites. By popular demand we created an Indica dominant cross with a super fruity aroma. She flowers early and produces small but heavy tight nugs.

I've finally moved anything that was mildly successful into a bigger pot, fingers crossed they will continue to prosper.
I've also filled my tray back up with cuttings to start round two, hopefully with slightly better results. At least I have a better idea of what to expect this time, especially in terms of how long things take (much longer than I first thought), how much light and water they need (bright but not direct sunlight and a light spraying everyday - don't forget!).
I've added a LOT more leaves this time, which hopefully will result in more pups, but I've also added some larger cuttings which I hope I can get to sprout roots and hasten the process of ending up with little succulents!

First Sea Shipments of Ecuadorian Mangos to China Will Set Sail in 2019/20 Season
Yamil Farah, President of the Mango Ecuador Foundation
Ecuadorean mango exporters plan to send mangos to China by sea shipment for the first time in the 2019/20 season, according to the Mango Ecuador Foundation, an exporters alliance.
Produce Report spoke during the Fruit Logistica trade show in Berlin on February 6 to 8 with Yamil Farah, who is President of the Mango Ecuador Foundation and also serves as commercialization manager for Rinsura—one of the more than a dozen major Ecuadorean mango grower/exporters that make up the Foundation’s membership.
Ecuador originally gained market access to China for mangos at the end of 2016. But so far, according to Farah, all shipments to China have gone by air freight, which is expensive and greatly limits the volumes that can be shipped. Farah estimated that for the 2018/19 season, only about 1,000 to 2,000 4kg boxes of Ecuadorean mangoes were sent to China.
Farah said that in order to be able to send larger volumes and compete with Peruvian mangos, Ecuadorian mango exporters would send the first ever sea freight shipments to China during the coming 2019/20 season.
The Ecuadorian mango season starts with low volumes in the second half of September. Medium volumes then come in October, followed by peak volumes in November and December. The season then tapers off with low volumes in the first week of January.
The key varieties of mango produced commercially in Ecuador are Tommy Atkins, Ataulfo, Haden, Keitt and Kent. Among these, Kent and Tommy Atkins dominate production. According to Mango Ecuador Foundation statistics, the total plantation area for mangos in Ecuador is 5,600ha, with a projected production volume for the 2019/20 season of 56,000 tons. Over each of the past three seasons, the US has been the destination for over 90% of Ecuador’s mango exports.
Farah said Tommy Atkins has sold well in the US because of its red-tinged color. But, in China, consumers prefer the Kent variety due to its lower levels of fibers and high sweetness.
Aside from higher volume and lower costs, another benefit of ocean shipment of Ecuadorian mangos to China is that the 28-day voyage can push the availability a little later. This is important because the Ecuadorian mango season comes earlier than the Peruvian season. The Peruvian season is typically still in high production during the important fruit buying period in China leading up to the Chinese New Year, which can fall anywhere between January 21 and February 25.
Chinese New Year 2020, will be relatively early, falling on January 25. Potential buyers can find a list of 13 major suppliers and four Ecuadorian mango packing houses on the website of the Mango Ecuador Foundation.

The ongoing battle over industrial hemp legalization in Idaho may come to an end soon, as the state Senate approved House Bill 126 in a 30-5 vote on Wednesday.
Idaho is currently the only state where industrial hemp is illegal.
As previously reported by Hemp Grower, H.B. 126 would legalize the production, processing, research and transportation of industrial hemp in Idaho.
The law would also change the Idaho Code to differentiate hemp from cannabis by “amending Idaho’s list of controlled substances to differentiate between hemp, which has no more than 0.3% tetrahydrocannabinol (THC),” according to the Idaho Press.
State Sen. Abby Lee told Idaho Press she thinks the bill is a good policy, as it strikes the balance the state needs to ensure it is protecting its drug policy while providing farmers with the opportunity to grow hemp if they want to.
Sen. Jim Guthrie, who sponsored the measure, also told Idaho Press that many legislators have worked together to advance this bill. “Slowly but surely, we have moved this policy down the field,” he said. “We find ourselves near the end zone. Along the way, much effort by many diligent people has been employed.”


Tis the season for growing compost piles, for weeding unwanted seeds from the stockpile, for starting a wishlist for next year and reflecting on the season’s passing.
I think it may be the last year for the raised beds. And I think I’ll help them go. They harbor ants nests I can’t beat back or cajole away. They permit sweet potatoes to bunker under the walls, lessening the harvest and sowing the next generation of ground cover in the same allowance.
But to do so would require remapping the irrigation installed by our predecessors. And that is not in the time budget between now and the early sowings of spring when we’ll try for more peas and beans and carrots and things.
So perhaps another year, I’ll eke out of these tiring lengths, and perhaps next winter we’ll be moving, or the kids will be old enough to require less of my ship’s side to barnacle upon which will both ease and sadden my heart, and also increase the time budget a smidge, methinks. We shall see.
So the beds will rest, the compost will grow, and the caterpillars will continue to feast like royalty upon my cauliflower dreams.
“Hope you don’t feel like I think you’re doing nothing. You’re doing important work.”
Exactly what I needed to hear today.
I find myself with conscious gratitude surfacing more and more as bed rest continues. Is it the slowing down that allows room for it to grow? Is it the perspective shift front and center bringing gratitude into focus more clearly?
I’m grateful for mother daughter strawberry picnics on blankets with airplanes flying overhead.
I’m thankful for an over-extended partner extending himself even further to keep us all going, garden included.
I’m grateful for our small village who wash dishes or do “splash splash” (bath time) or just sit and talk politics and nonsense with me.
I’m grateful for fresh muffins made while I sleep in and for the financial ability to stomach a pretty decent property tax hike.
I’m grateful for “smoo” (smooth) and “buhpee” (bumpy) pebbles, and the daughter that carries them to my pillow and blanket fort to tell me about them.
And I’m grateful that for another day, our little Blueberry is still growing safe and sound in my belly.

|Vanilla pompona has been listed as one of the minor sources of the spice vanilla. We are experimenting with different methods of harvesting and "curing" the seed pods, which are the so called "beans". Vanilla is an orchid which can grow into very large vines. They do best in greenhouses, where they can climb about. While hand pollination can produce pods, we primarily offer this as a beautiful and pretty rugged ornamental. The vines look like they are made out of jade, beautiful succulent green. Clusters of yellow-green flowers form on older plants (photo at right). Because Vanilla doesn't stay-put in a smaller pot for very long, we offer cut sections of vine which have roots on them. The generously-sized cuttings can be trained up moss-covered poles, logs, etc. Vanilla planifolia, the main species of commerce, has a reputation for flowering less easily than V. pompona. Our clone has flowered and set pods (see lower right) reliably for many years.


Everything is coming up like mad right now with our 90+ degree weather. I went out and pulled some carrots(minicor), some butter chard, and some lettuce. And the lettuce didn’t cost me $3.00 a head at the fancy stores. You can grow this for pennies and you’ll never, ever beat the taste of freshly harvested lettuce. I rinsed, cleaned and dried it, then made us a tasty Caesars salad. I usually have a batch of Caesars salad dressing made up in the refrigerator. For those who love Caesars but end up being disappointed by the store-bought dressings, you ought to buy my ebook. Although the book is about square foot gardening, it’s got a great recipe in there for Caesars salad dressing. It’s a shortcut version-one that you’re not slaving over when guests arrive. It’s made ahead of time, and it’s very good. You can add as much anchovy paste as you want, or you don’t have to add any. You won’t go anywhere that you’re not asked for the recipe. Oh yes-the things that the lettuce, carrots, and chard are resting on? Whelatgrass. I hate the stuff, but I grow it for a few people who love it. I’m telling you, square foot gardening is the easiest way to go.

Archer Daniels Midland Company (ADM) announced a package of additional commitments in relation to its proposed acquisition of GrainCorp Limited.
According to the press release featured on the Business Wire, the package includes additional A$200 million investment in agricultural infrastructure, addresses pricing, access, stock information and so on.
The key elements of the package are:
– Additional A$200 million investment to strengthen Australian agricultural infrastructure, with emphasis on rail enhancement projects;
– Price caps on grain handling charges at silos and ports;
– Commitment to grain infrastructure access for growers and third parties;
– Commitment to “open access” regime for port services;
– A grower and community advisory board with representation from New South Wales, Victoria and Queensland, as well as regular public grower consultation; and
– Support for expanded grain stocks information arrangements.
These commitments are set to be put into effect upon the closing of ADM’s proposed acquisition of GrainCorp.
“Throughout our effort to secure approvals for our proposed acquisition of GrainCorp, we have worked constructively to create value for grain growers and the Australian economy as well as shareholders of GrainCorp and ADM,” said Ian Pinner, president, ADM Grain.
“We have had substantive discussions with growers, policymakers and other stakeholders, and we’ve been committed to finding common ground and developing solutions that address issues and opportunities that have been raised. Taking into account the feedback we received, we are committing to a further package of investments and initiatives to help ensure that Australian agriculture is able to serve a key role in meeting growing global demand.”
Mr. Pinner further added that these commitments are in addition to the existing capital expenditure and other commitments ADM has set in their Bidder’s Statement which include a A$50 million enhancement to GrainCorp’s planned capital expenditure over the next few years.
According to him, the additional capital investment is a 100% increase in GrainCorp’s original A$250 million capital expenditure budget prior to ADM’s proposal.
All in all, the capital investments committed by ADM for GrainCorp amount to A$500 million.
“In the competitive global grains market, it makes sense to operate the most efficient supply chain and maximize utilization of every location and asset,” Mr. Pinner added.
“These investments and commitments—developed following extensive input from Australian stakeholders—will help ensure the GrainCorp network remains an attractive option for growers and third-party grain traders, and also remains a competitive source for global grain buyers.”


Grains remain in a sharp recovery.
Grain futures worked on both sides of unchanged in the evening (a few lite showers were popping up in the W Midwest, which created evening weakness) but firmed in the early morning hours as the Central US weather forecast, along with Europe’s weather, continue to offer hot and dry weather beyond on this weekend. Today the Federal Reserve announces its interest rate hike, and the US dollar is soft; again, a suspicion of a potential topping of the US dollar is in the making.
Turkey is prepared to lead one of the first stranded vessels out of Ukraine later this week with estimates that there are 23-24 grain vessels at the three nominated ports that would also like to make the trip. Russia is warning that unless the world drops all sanctions on Russian grain exports, the just signed corridor deal will quickly collapse. Russia has not mentioned what they are demanding on grain sanctions, but it’s understood that it is likely related to banking and freight insurance issues. With the recent missile strikes on two Ukrainian ports and Russia’s posturing, it’s difficult to understand if this deal can be maintained without a treaty on the war.
India, which was going to save the world with wheat back in March, has seen its values now soar to record highs since the completion of its harvest. Many analysts argue that the 2022 Indian wheat production crop as well below stated supplies of India and USDA’s estimates continue to maintain 100 MMTs. Many have the Indian wheat crop likely at 92-95 MMTs, which means India will be importing later this year some 4-6 MMTs of wheat.
Forecasts remain consistent overnight with extreme heat for the Plains/Midwest with an ongoing drying trend for the NW Midwest. A high-pressure Ridge builds north and east early next week, pushing the jet stream back into Canada. This provides a dry and extremely hot first 10 days of August for the Plains, Midsouth, and the W Midwest. There will be numerous days when temperatures will reach the lower 100s. For crop areas like IA, NE, MN, and the Dakotas, where soil moisture is short to very short, the stress on crops will start to become acute. Trendline yield potential is being lost in the coming weeks. Crop ratings have been on the decline for the past three weeks and will continue that trend.
Indications have live cattle steady-lower and lower for feeder cattle as the strong moving grain prices continue higher overnight while the cash cattle market has softened this week. Late cash trade was reported in parts of Texas Tuesday afternoon with deals at $135, which was $1 lower than last week’s weighted average. The rest of the cattle country remained quiet. More significant business will likely develop today and Thursday. Beef retail values finish mixed with choice gaining $1.00 while select lost $1.12. The load count was 115.

February 2013 Newsletter: Growing Into 2013
Dear Friends and Supporters,
Lots of news from the SOIL team this month. The first thing on all of our minds this week is the departure of Nick Preneta, SOIL’s Operations Director. After three incredible years of hard work and dedication, Nick left Haiti a few days ago. Nick will be sorely missed, though he will continue to support SOIL from the mountains of Oregon.
As the teams in Port-au-Prince and Cap-Haitien are settling into the new year, SOIL has some great updates and milestones to share with you. Following our partnership with Trees, Water and People, it is SOIL’s goal to plant 10,000 trees in northern Haiti during the first half of 2013. Last week, we took our first big step toward achieving that goal when we planted 800 trees with help from the Boy Scouts of Haiti.
In Port-au-Prince we have sold over 10,000 gallons of our rich, organic compost, and we continue to improve and revolutionize our composting waste treatment site in the Trutier dump, showcasing the power of transformation with a land rehabilitation project nourished with SOIL compost. The experimental pepper gardens at our Penye agricultural research center are flourishing, with the final of three harvests completed in late January.
Even in times of change, SOIL continues to move forward, dedicating our time and efforts to our programs and our mission, continuing to bring safe and dignified sanitation to thousands of people throughout Haiti, and promoting new agricultural projects designed to stabilize Haiti’s damaged environment.
We hope that those of you who have supported us over the years will take a moment to look over our newly released Annual Report. As ever we are grateful for your contributions and support and thank you for continuing to believe in the potential for change.
With Love from Haiti,
The SOIL Team
