Whether you live in a high rise or a small house, you can supplement your winter diet by growing a few salad herbs in your home. Even with just a few feet of balcony or a sunny window you can transform both your living space and your diet and at least meet your salad and herb needs.
The most important consideration for the indoor herb garden is the provision of light. Choose a balcony that captures sun for at least a few hours a day or a window with a north eastern aspect to ensure year round sunlight. If you live in the high latitudes and your daylight growing period is short, you can supplement with light fittings and reflective surfaces like mirrors and light painted wall will increase the reflected light.

The shape of your well lit space and your plant choice will dictate the sort of growing containers you will need. Some, like oregano or marjoram have a prostrate growing habit, so are ideal for large shallow dishes or for hanging. Others, like basil, cilantro and chives, require a more upright space. Windowboxes or long pots are ideal for window sills.
There are many off the shelf products to satisfy the needs of herb growing. Most herbs have shallow roots, so don’t require a great deal of soil. This makes them well suited to small containers or hydroponics systems that use a light weight soil-free substrate. Window hydroponics shelves or bottle systems are readily available in stores. ‘Windowfarms’ is a stylish window growing system that utilises the entire window space by attaching a cascading array of bottles that drain into each other from the top. It is ideal for trailing plants and small herbs and maximises the available light while making the window and attractive feature in your home and increasing privacy. There are a few DIY patterns available including Windowfarms own DIY advice here. For the deep green thumb, why not consider constructing yours from reused water bottles as they’ve done in this Instructables version? Or you can chain terracotta pots together as this resourceful DIYer has done. Alternatively, you can install shelving or racks to arrange small pots in. Other wall or window gardens have utilised hanging canvas pockets or bags or wooden pallets filled with soil. All the hanging versions will need strong supports to bear the increased weight when you water them.
Besides sunlight, nutrients are an important factor in growing herbs indoors. You might choose a hydroponics solution for your hanging garden setup, or slow release fertilisers. If you have the time and enthusiasm, kitchen worm farms or composting methods can create the soil and nutrients you will need.
AeroGarden has great indoor hydroponic solution that makes it very easy to start grow your dream indoor herb garden. The best part is that you can use the system all year ground, both day night.
Herbs are small and easy to grow plants that can brighten up your indoor space while providing you with some great fresh produce. Growing herbs indoors doesn’t have to be a challenge, even for the inexperienced gardener and is an ideal way to introduce yourself to the art of indoor gardening.

To give you an idea of what to expect in a box, here is what we gave out on our first year at the Quinney Farm in Elkhorn. It was a really tough year for us, with a cold spring and a dry August. Plus, everything we did that year was new. Moving forward, we see more diversity and slightly larger qty per veggie (example: 4 peppers instead of 2 or 3) in the boxes. Thank you for choosing LotFotL.
The chart reads across 26 weeks of delivery. Each week it shows how many units of each veggie was harvested for CSA boxes. If there is a number recorded in a given week it means that this veggie was given out in either a staple share, gonzo share, or both.

Chicago | Reuters — U.S. soybean futures rebounded on Wednesday, posting gains for the fifth session in six on hopes that China will accelerate its purchases of U.S. agricultural products following three days of trade talks with the United States this week.
Corn also firmed as traders anticipated the grain would be among the goods next on Beijing’s shopping list following recent goodwill purchases of U.S. soybeans over the past month.
Wheat rose for a fifth straight session as rising prices in rival exporting countries such as Russia stoked expectations of a pickup in demand for U.S. shipments.
Spillover support from sharply higher crude oil prices and a weaker greenback, which makes dollar-denominated goods more attractive to buyers holding other currencies, offered further support to grains.
The market focused on positive comments from U.S. officials after three days of talks in Beijing.
The U.S. Trade Representative’s office said on Wednesday that China had pledged to purchase “a substantial amount” of agricultural, energy and manufactured goods and services from the United States.
“There were some good comments from the trade talks… There’s a continued underlying sense of support in the market as long as trade tensions are not blowing up,” said Rich Nelson, chief strategist with Allendale Inc.
China earlier this week approved five genetically-modified crops for import, the first in about 18 months, and booked another wave of U.S. soybean deals after effectively freezing purchases last summer.
Adverse weather in top soybean exporter Brazil provided further support to prices.
Consultancy AgRural slashed its Brazilian soy crop estimate on Wednesday to 116.9 million tonnes, from 121.4 million previously, citing poor weather in southern Brazil.
Chicago Board of Trade (CBOT) March soybeans rose 5-1/2 cents to $9.24 a bushel, while March corn gained two cents, to $3.82 a bushel (all figures US$).
CBOT March wheat rose 2-1/4 cents to $5.20 a bushel after nearing a three-week peak of $5.24-1/2 notched a day earlier.
Wheat support stemmed from accelerated demand in the global marketplace, with rising Russian prices offering U.S. exporters an opportunity to capture sales.
But disappointment over Egypt’s purchase of only Russian wheat in a snap tender pared futures gains near the close. U.S. wheat was offered at competitive prices in the tender, but the high cost of freight from the U.S. proved prohibitive.
Other recent global wheat business included purchases by Algeria, Taiwan and Tunisia.

Stringing onions is a great way of storing gluts, as you can keep a large number of bulbs in a small space. Hang them in a cool, dry, frost-free place – such as a shed – until you need to bring them into the kitchen. If you have room, grow more onions than you need and string them up to see you through winter.
Leave your onions to dry out thoroughly before you string them, by laying them out and leaving them in the sun for a few days. If it’s raining, lay them on trays in a warm, dry place, such as a shed or conservatory. Choose the best quality bulbs to store – any that are damp and moist should be eaten straight away as they won’t store well and will be prone to mould and mildew.
Discover delicious ways to cook your onion harvest such as these caramelised onions from BBC Good Food.
You Will Need
- Garden twine
Knot one end of the cord back onto itself to make a sliding noose. Then tie the other end onto a strong hook or wooden beam.
Wind the tops of three or four onions through the noose to create a ‘pendulum’ at the bottom of the cord.
Wrap the tops of each of the remaining onions around the cord, then slide them down onto the pendulum. As the onions stack up, their weight tightens the noose at the bottom and pinches the onions in place.


Ottawa’s proposal for an improved AgriStability program could give farmers short-term gain for long-term pain, Manitoba’s agriculture minister Blaine Pedersen warns.
At the online federal-provincial-territorial agriculture ministers’ meeting on Friday, federal Agriculture Minister Marie Claude Bibeau proposed dropping AgriStability’s maximum reference margin, and increasing the compensation rate from 70 to 80 per cent retroactively this year and for calendar 2021 and 2022.
“Taken together, these changes would increase the overall amount AgriStability pays out to farmers by 50 per cent,” the federal government said in a news release.
Like other provinces, Manitoba is studying Bibeau’s proposal, which would cost the province at least $15 million more a year, Pedersen said.
But what Ottawa is offering farmers might hurt them more in the long run, he added.
At the meeting’s close Bibeau said farm support “payments are going to rich farmers only,” according to Pedersen. He interpreted that to mean under the next five year federal-provincial Canadian Agricultural Partnership, due to begin April 1, 2023, Bibeau’s plan is to cut spending on other farm support programs, including AgriInsurance and AgriInvest.
“(T)he federal government seems to have implied they are putting out something now but they are going to claw back the money later and that’s our big concern,” Pedersen said. “We want to look at the long-term stability of farm programs to make sure that they are bankable, that they are timely and that they work for the farm community.
“Be careful what you ask for…”
The federal government’s AgriStability proposal shows it wants to invest in farm supports, not cut them, a spokesperson from Bibeau’s office stated in an email Tuesday.
“She has put a concrete offer on the table for the provinces to consider,” the official wrote. “She is trying to find a national consensus to boost the amount AgriStability pays out to farmers by 50 per cent for 2020 and ongoing.
“Formal consultations on the direction of the next policy framework have not even started yet, and it is far too early to imply anything otherwise. All levels of government have a chance to listen to farmers today and step up to meaningful and immediate reforms that will significantly improve the lives of farmers.”
While Pedersen said Manitoba will closely review Bibeau’s AgriStability proposal, he’s also asking farmers to consider four other options, including a margin-based insurance program that could replace AgriStability.
Details need to be worked out, but farm income could be stabilized by insuring farm margins with governments and farmers sharing the premium costs, Pedersen said.
Keystone Agricultural Producers (KAP) wants to see more details before endorsing that plan, president Bill Campbell said in an interview.
Bibeau’s AgriStability proposal looks promising, he added.
“I think if some of the issues were addressed and fixed it wouldn’t necessarily be a broken program,” he said, in response to Pedersen’s critique of AgriStability.
Canadian farmers have been advocating for AgriStability improvements since 2013 when the Harper government changed it. Campbell said he’s frustrated Ottawa’s proposal took so long.
“Nobody could counter-offer or object until something was on the table,” he said. “Now it’s going to take another three or four months to figure it out.”
Agriculture can play a role in boosting Canada’s economy post-COVID, but the industry needs income stabilization to realize its potential, Campbell said.

My bogatyr garlic just scaped. I cut them all of
and they are slated for the dinner table.l
Isn't it a little early for scapes?
And about 1/3 of the leaves are now yellow.
Is it time to harvest?
I don't know where you are; my small patch of hardneck garlic hasn't
put up scapes yet, but expect them soon.
Sounds a little (not a lot) soon; I'd wait a bit. Perhaps the plants
were stressed for some reason. I know a fellow who gets his carrots
to bloom for seed by letting not watering- in the Nevada high desert,
where the only water they get is what he supplies- then starting water
to trigger their "Ohmigod, I'm going to die! Better start the next
yum! i pulled some green garlic the other
day and just ate it right there.
it can vary. mine are just starting to get
scapes, so it will be a few weeks to a month yet
here and since i do let the scapes grow and get
bulbules on them i leave them a bit longer than
1/3, but as little as possible since it really
does start to affect the quality of the tunic.
i'll have to stop watering them in a few weeks.
so far this year has been about the opposite
of the past several years. which is ok but
different for sure. a lot of sunshine, things
are growin'... :)

Aceto's 1st-quarter agchem sales down 1.5%
The US company, Aceto (Lake Success, New York), recorded a 1.5% decline in crop protection sales to $3.4 million in the three months ended September 30th 2009. Gross profit for its first quarter of fiscal 2010 was down by 42.2% to $433,000. The gross margin of 12.6% compared with 21.5% in the first quarter of fiscal 2009. The company attributes the decline to sales of lower margin plant growth regulators and higher regulatory costs. Crop protection accounted for about 5% of Aceto’s first-quarter sales.

Waiting on China’s Potash Contract
Mosaic also announced this week that China may not sign its potash supply agreement with North America’s largest potash producers until next year. China appears to be holding out for lower prices than the ones paid in the first half.
China is “very determined” to pay less than the $470 a ton it negotiated for the first six months of 2012, Prokopanko said. The standoff is being exacerbated by the country increasing its rail imports from Belarus.
Prokopanko said China could wait through the rest of 2012 without purchasing more potash. They may even wait as long as into the first of 2013.
In the meantime, India is not expected to sign its potash supply agreement with North American producers until China settles its contract first. Imports into India have been cut due to a weaker rupee and budget cuts.

INDIA - An Indian statesman is championing native cattle as part of the National Dairy Policy due to hardiness.
India's minister of state for agriculture and agri-processing, Dr Sanjeev Balyan, has said that tolerance to tropical weather conditions means indigenous cows can increase rural income.
The minister said this while inaugurating one-day ICAR-NAVS expert consultations meet on strategies for enhancing milk productivity of indigenous cattle.
For this purpose, the government has launched the Rashtriya Gokul Mission for improvement of indigenous cattle, Dr Balyan stressed.
Dr Balyan hoped that the project will yield rich dividends and the mission aims to conserve and develop indigenous breeds in a focused and scientific manner, for which breeding facilities will be set up for breeds with high genetic potential.
"A well thought out cattle breeding policy which was in place 50 years ago which included selective breeding of indigenous milch cattle breeds in their breeding tracts and to use them for upgrading local cattle.
"However, the policy was not followed in letter and spirit and indiscriminate crossbreeding was done which has resulted in erosion and dilution of our rich germplasm of high yielding indigenous milch breeds,’ Dr Balyan adds.
Dr Balyan was also conferred with the Honorary Fellowship of National Academy of Veterinary Sciences by President of the Academy for contributing significantly in the area of agriculture sector in general and livestock in particular.
A.S. Thakur, Secretary, Department of Animal Husbandry, Dairying & Fisheries, India also briefed on various initiatives taken by the government for improvement of milk productivity and conservation of indigenous cattle germplasm.
The meet was organised jointly by Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR) through National Bureau of Animal Genetic Resources (NBAGR), Karnal; Central Institute for Research on Cattle (CIRC), Meerut and National Academy of Veterinary Sciences (NAVS).

As the name may suggest, “Bigfoot” is the largest of the three Cleyeras offered by the Southern Living Plant Collection. It is able to reach heights of 15-20′ H and 5-6′ W which makes it ideal for usage as a large uniform hedge. New foliage on the Bigfoot Cleyera will emerge with a crisp bronze-green appearance, then shortly turn to a dark glossy green. As autumn comes around, the Bigfoot’s foliage develops a bronze-red hue that fits in perfectly with the new colors of the season. This Cleyera will respond to pruning and shearing, allowing one to sculpt their natural privacy screen to their particular liking. Plant the ‘Bigfoot’ Cleyera in part shade to full sun, and slightly acidic soil for best performance.
For a seamless planting, space your Bigfoot Cleyera 4 feet apart from plant center to plant center. For space between plantings, plant them 7+ feet apart.

I received my plants and they were all in excellent condition. I will definitely be making more purchases. Thank you!
Elena Lorenzo –
I was very impressed by the packaging and most of all the plants themselves are gorgeous, good size, and just beautiful. Like the other reviewer. I hope they’ll flourish. I’m giving it a four star only because I haven’t planted them in the ground yet.
Kevin J. Hughes –
Plants received in good order Wednesday afternoon via UPS. Went into ground (along with compost, peat & Healthy Start organic 3-4-3 fertilizer) & mulched on Thursday. It’s only Friday. There are showers today here on L.I. (zone 7) in N.Y.
Perfect for newly planted material.
It’s early in the season, the first of April, & these plants have a long way to go before they provide the living green screen that I’m anticipating. They appear healthy. I’m hopeful that they’ll flourish. Thank you.


These were wonderful treasures that unknowingly came with the purchase of our home!
They bloom every year around mothers day, and are now producing seed!
Id like to offer some... but need a name to go with it!!
Can sombody please help!!?
Thank you in advance!
SOLVED: which lily please!?
It's one of the dutch hybrid amaryllis (Hippeastrum). There are so many varieties that look similar it's hard to tell exactly which you have, could be "Clown" or "Fairy Tale" just to name a few. Amaryllis are perfectly hardy in your zone and quite possibly into zone 7 with a deep winter mulch. I will be experimenting with these to see just how hardy they are.
I was really surprised to hear a bulb produces seed!??! I need to do some more studying!
Thank you so much for the info... Ill go search for Amaryllis websites to identify further.... hopefully!?!
NIce Amaryllis!!I have to dig these bulbs up each year in NJ...I find it easier to grow them in clay pots and bring inside in the fall!!

To actually bring your lawn to another level, you will want to plant a couple of beautiful Southern Idaho trees to allow it to stand out. Between the tasteful birches and hardy pine trees which Southern Idaho is indeed famous for, there are loads of options to select from when making those improvements to your lawn? Check this link right here to get information about the tree trimming.
However, nobody likes to look out on their lawn to observe saplings – particularly not for the next five decades! If you want your new saplings to grow into magnificent Southern Idaho trees in less time, then here would be the greatest tips from landscaping pros in the know:
Fertilizer Is Essential. Forget those Instant-Grow miracle products which are constantly being advertised on the TV; great old-fashioned fertilizer is your tree should shoot straight to the heavens. To get your hands on some fertilizer, visit your nearest nursery to purchase a bundle; better yet, see if a local farmer will save some for you.
Be Sure the Requirements Are Right. Before you plant these saplings, be certain you're setting the trees far enough apart that they can get as much sun as possible. Bear in mind, the less sun your tree is exposed to, the more likely it'll be stunted in growth.
Spread Mulch. Aside from fertilizing, mulching is another fantastic spread that will help your tree to grow considerably quicker. Fermented mulch made from cedar or pine shavings will make sure that your trees get moisture, so spread a two to four-inch layer around your trees twice a year (preferably in mid-spring and mid-autumn).


This is a Kush for those that want to get on with their life and greet the postman with a smile. Although fast to take hold it is not an overly strong High but you will feel it all over your body all the same.

There are a lot of factors to consider when choosing a rototiller. Price, size, power, and features are all important considerations. But the most important factor is what you will be using the rototiller for.
If you will only be using it occasionally for light-duty tasks like tilling a small garden or flower bed, then a smaller lightweight model would be fine. If you will be using it regularly for heavier duty tasks like breaking up sod or tilling hard soil, then you’ll need something with more power. And if you have a lot of acreages to till, then you’ll want something with good-sized tires and enough power to get the job done quickly.
So before heading out to buy your new rototiller, take some time to think about what kind of tasks you’ll be using it for and what features are important to you. That way you can choose the right one for your needs and get years of use out of it


Gov. Rick Snyder has requested federal disaster assistance for farmers across Michigan who are facing substantial crop losses because of extreme weather conditions.
A rare extended period of summerlike temperatures in March caused trees to blossom early, only to be hit by April frosts and freezes. Farmers and extension agents say the 1-2 punch has all but wiped out the tart cherry crop, while other orchard fruits such as sweet cherries, apples, pears and peaches have suffered extensive damage.
The governor's request, announced on Friday, is being sent to U.S. Agriculture Department Secretary Tom Vilsack.
It also cites crop damage due to blizzards, hail, tornadoes, flooding, excessive rain and lightning that occurred between Jan. 1 and May 11.
The governor says the crop losses currently are estimated at $223.5 million.

Turmeric prices that saw a short burst of an upturn recently on weak monsoon rains are unlikely to sustain the uptrend mainly due to ample supplies, traders at Nizamabad, a major turmeric trading centre, said.
“Turmeric prices are likely to move up by another Rs 400-500 for 100 kg at the most. The maximum that this commodity can move up to is about Rs 6,000 for 100 kg,” said Mr A. Sandeep of Nizamabad-based Prasanth Traders.
Turmeric prices had seen record high prices in 2010 due to a major shortfall in output. In that year, near-month turmeric futures had touched a historic high of Rs 16,350 for 100 kg on the National Commodity and Derivative Exchange.
The surge in prices had prompted farmers to shift large tracts of non-turmeric growing areas under this crop taking supplies substantially higher during the next year.
Turmeric output in 2009-10 was around 47 lakh bags (1 bag = 75 kg each). In the following year output rose to 69 lakh bags and in 2011-12 the production is estimated to be around 90 lakh bags, Ms Vedika Narvekar, senior analyst, Angel Commodities said quoting trade sources.
According to her, the current surge in turmeric prices was caused mainly due to insufficient monsoon rains.
Already, farmers have shifted large turmeric growing areas to other lucrative crop including soyabean as prices of the commodity have been languishing at low levels for quite some time. Additionally, weak monsoon rains have dampened sowing prospects.
“The acreage is likely to be lower this year,” said Ms Narvekar.
She also does not expect prices to go above Rs 6,000 level. “It is very doubtful that prices would move above this level,” she said.
The current uptrend is temporary, said Mr Dharmesh Jain, analyst at Ventura Securities.
“Technically, turmeric futures are in overbought position but current fundamentals are strong,” he said but added that Rs 6,500 for 100 kg level is likely to be the cap in the current uptrend.
Turmeric futures for August delivery hit the 4 per cent upper circuit today at Rs 5,696 for 100 kg. This contract has risen by 50 per cent from a low of Rs 3,732 for 100 kg traded on June 6.
The July contract which expires today has also made similar gains during the same period.

in Germany on Mission to Position SA as Fruit And Veg Supplier of Choice
A delegation South African companies comprising of 22 companies and three industry associations has arrived in Berlin, Germany on a mission to position the country as the fruit and vegetable supplier of choice at the Fruit Logistica Trade Fair, that will be taking place from 6-8 February 2019.
The companies will be showcasing the finest fruits and vegetables at the South African Pavilion that will be hosted by the Department of Trade and Industry (
The Director of Export Promotion at
Mr Luke Govender says the mission is solidified by virtue of a public-private partnership arrangement that comprises of
, the Fresh Produce Exporter’s Forum, Fruit South Africa, the Perishable Products Exports Control Board and the Agricultural Research Council that have collaborated in order to enhance South Africa’s export of fruit and vegetables into the European regional market.
“Our value proposition is essentially the opportunity of counter seasonality and the sectoral comparative advantages that we have as a country. We will also be leveraging the opportunities presented in the Southern African Development Community Economic Partnership Agreement (SADC EPA) whereby improved market access into the European Union has been granted for more than 30 products, particularly the agricultural products,” said Govender.
The Industry Affairs Manager at Fruit South Africa (FruitSA), which is a non-profit organisation registered as an umbrella for different fruit associations, Ms Vuyolwethu Gxotiwe said that her main reasons for showcasing at Fruit Logistica were linked to trade promotion, the strengthening of current trade ties and the absorption and learning of new techniques.
“Chief among our strategic objectives is the transformation of our industry, which includes agricultural economic development based on value-chain approach, and to address the socio economic imbalances and challenges in rural areas in partnership with the public sector. We are hopeful that we will come across like-minded entities that will be able to share expertise on how to achieve these objectives we have set for ourselves,” she said.
The Fruit Logistica Berlin, which is regarded as the world’s leading international trade fair for the fresh fruit and vegetable industry, covers every sector of the international fruit and vegetable supply chain from production, distribution and marketing, through to the point of sale including global players as well as small and medium sized suppliers from all around the world.

I've ordered seed twice from Pinetree, and have been exceptionally happy both times. Buyers do, however, need to read carefully the quantity of seed offered for the price. If you buy expecting a "standard" packet of everything you willsometimes be dissappointed. I have found most all of their seeds to be exceptional values, and I suspect only those shoppers expecting a deal too good to be true are dissappointed. I also find germination rates to be consistently good, and sometimes excellent. The only real disssappointment I have had out of about forty varieties tried was the Creme de Cassis hollyhock, which logged in at about 50% -- very low for a typically easy species. On the other hand, I got about an 85% germination rate on Codonopsis, which is typically one I get very little luck with. So I am a happy customer and will continue to be so.

I have been ordering seeds from Pinetree for years and have always been happy with their service and products. This spring I placed an order for a fairly large amount and after a month or so my seeds had still not arrived. I finally called the company and told them. They sent a duplicate order to me quickly and asked me if I would mail back the first order if it should arrive, which was a fair request. I appreciated the friendly way they handled the problem. Mistakes can and do happen both with the seed company and the postal service. Pinetree is definitely a great company to do business from my experience.
On May 1st, 2009, RoseyQ added the following:
I have been a customer of Pinetree for years. This year, like many of you, waited over 5 weeks for my orders to arrive. I emailed the company to find out why. They emailed me back the next day saying the orders had mailed out. I received them shortly after. One of the orders for seed starting supplies was missing half the items. I emailed them again and they responded right away, apologizing and explaining to me that they had hired many new employees to keep up with the increase in business. Both email replies to me were helpful and polite. I received the missing items from my order fairly quickly. I like Pinetree Seeds. They sell seeds with fine germination rates and many other very reasonably priced products. Iím hoping that they are able to solve the problems that are causing so much negative feedback from both new and old customers and will continue on in the seed business for many years to come.

We have ordered from Pintree Seeds for many years. The two times our seeds have been delayed were during a bad ice storm (we received a $1 coupon as a thanks-for-waiting) and last year when we ordered late during the late-spring rush. The prices are good and the number of seeds are listed in the catalogue. The lettuce seed mixture (1 oz) is the best and always gets compliments. I used to hate throwing away good seed because the packages were too large (who needs 30 zuchinni plants?) but find that 4 hills are much more manageable.

I ordered bulbs. Lots of lily bulbs. The bulbs came last fall as promised. Every single one of these bulbs I ordered came up, and really showed their little blooms off! They were absolutely gorgeous. Anyone that has planted lilies, knows that the first year is rarely the best year for lilies. But these performed as if they had been in the ground for several years with many, many blooms! I would reccomend this company to anyone for their bulbs!

Ordered a large variety of seeds from Pinetree this year. All were of good quality - my corn did not come up but I think that was my fault!

They tell you how many seeds you are getting in their catalog so you will not be surprised. I like to grow many things and don't need 2 yrs worth of seeds so it worked out perfectly for me.

This was my first time ordering vegetable seeds from Pinetree Garden Seeds.

In fact, the seeds were here before my credit card was billed. I didn't notice any obvious discrepancies in the seed count per packet and everything we have planted has had a great germination rate.

I have used Pinetree for years and have received excellent quality seeds and service throughout. The one time I had less than stellar germination on some spinach seeds, I sent them an email asking if there had been any problems with the batch, and they responded promptly AND send me replacements (more than I had ordered originally) at no charge. The prices are excellent also, and they discount many of the gardening books they sell.

I'm not a seed-starting kind of gal, so I can't attest to the quality of their seeds. But I can definitely say that their bulbs are wonderful, even though they're not bulb specialists. I ordered a number of lily, crocus, and dwarf iris bulbs late in the season during their end-of-season sale, and everything I planted has come up strongly--including the things I just shoved into a poorly-prepared corner somewhere because it was getting into December and I'd ordered way too many bulbs and was running out of room. In fact, the crocus I ordered from them was the only patch that the squirrels left alone (of course, I probably can't attribute this to Pinetree, but you never know). Also, the lily bulbs I got from them are coming up so strongly that even my gardening-expert neighbors commented that I had obviously gotten some really high-quality bulbs. Pinetree also answered my e-mails in a reasonable amount of time.

I ordered my seeds from PineTree only because they were one of the top 20 companies on this site, and I was glad I did. Their prices are very good. I like that they don't waste money on extra frills like glossy catalog pages or elaborate seed packets, but there are still plenty of color pictures in the catalog. I wouldn't mind a little more planting info on the seed packets though. I also ordered some books-- they have some really neat ones on less common topics. Anyway, I ordered off their website and though I didn't get a shipping notice my order arrived right when they said it would. Everything was well-packed and nothing was missing. I will definitely order from them next year.

This was my first order to Pinetree Seeds and I can say that I'm quite pleased! Their prices are very, very good, even though you aren't getting the same quantity of seeds that you might get elsewhere. But my garden isn't huge, and the extra seeds would just get discarded. I received my order very quickly, but paid the extra $4.95 for 24 hour processing. IMHO, their "checkout" on the website needs to offer the option there. I had to email them to request them to add the 4.95, but they answered within 24 hours, and told me that the order was on its way! The tomato seeds sprouted in 4 days, and the petunias in 5! Good seed!

I submitted a relatively small order on March 27th using their online service which was very organised and easy to use. After submitting the order, though, I read, in their policy section of the site, that orders between February and April would take about 2-3 weeks to ship. After reading this I became a bit panicked because I needed the seeds quickly so I sent an e-mail to them asking if I could add the $4.50 charge to send it 24hr. They e-mailed me back in less than a day and said they did it and already shipped it. I will definitely be buying from here again.

I was concerned that the seeds from this company were of poor quality after very low germination rates last year but, as it was possible it was the weather and not the seeds themselves, I decided to try a few packets again this year ... and am incredibly glad that I did. Of those started indoors germination has been excellent, and the young plants appear stronger than even those from my other favorite companies. And I discovered I still had some seed from last year's packets, started them, and they're coming up beautifully as well. I was admittedly biased against this company because of their low prices ("you get what you pay for") and assumed the worst, but my experiences with the company itself -- and now its seed -- have been nothing but positive.

This is about the 5th year I have purchased from Pine Tree Seeds. Each year my experience has been extremely positive from the pleasant phone operators who take my order to quick delivery. Seed germination has been excellent and the number of seeds received in a packet equals or exceeds the number listed in the catalogue. I like the fact that they charge less per packet by providing fewer seeds in a pack. This way I have fewer leftovers and can order fresh seeds each year. When the number of seeds in a packet is similar to other companies they almost always beat the price. I have made them my first choice in ordering seeds and supplies.

As a substitute for a pair of bullocks, a farm implement called Mech Bull has been developed for small farmers who cannot afford tractors and power tillers.
Sponsored by Vigyan Ashram in Pabal village in Pune, Mech Bull is a multipurpose farm implement that carries out various agricultural operations such as ploughing and seeding, pumping water, carrying chaff, and can also be used as a cutter and thresher.
Meant for'small cultivators, this crude-looking mir)i-tractor has a 6 horsepower, air-cooled diesel engine and reconditioned jeep gear reassembled on a sturdy steel chassis fabricated for the purpose. Costing a moderate Rs 37,000, Mech Bull is suitable for assembly and repairs by any rural diesel engine mechanic and workshop.
While 5 prototypes have been made in Pabal village and field tested over 5 years on a modest budget of Rs 1.9 lakh, the Vigyan Ashram is willing to train people to assemble the implement elsewhere.
Applauded by local farmers as ideal for their needs, Mech Bull MK 11 and MK III have proved to be dependable workhorses and are in regular use in the Vigyan Ashram and its neighbourhood. Work on MK IV is underway and this model will be simpler, cheaper and restricted to land tilling and water pumping.
The main impediment to popularising the implement is a clarification of its status vis-a-vis the Motor Vehicles Act.
Besides, making the implement eligible for bank loans to small farmers will also go a long way in making it effective, versatile and popular.


reaping hook meaning in Hindi
- The American history of hay cutting tools begins with the reaping hook.
- In 1846 a mill was based in the village that sharpened reaping hooks.
- The blade of the sickle was serrated and less circular than the reaping hook.
- She refused to reveal his position, even as a British soldier held a reaping hook at her throat.
- Traditionally reaping was done with the scythe and reaping hook, but in Britain these have been entirely superseded by machinery.
- The artist, with reaping hook, gleaning basket, and cider press, denudes nature, we may say, but creates food.
- Shortly thereafter, one of Huck's soldiers put a reaping hook to the neck of Col . Bratton's wife, Martha, in an unsuccessful attempt to discover Bratton's whereabouts.
- In April 1930 they had enough money to purchase sand and Dr Sweeney, the President, used reaping hook and lawn mower on the course and R E Allen & R A Ditton leveled the greens and spread sand.
- This population boom were due to land shortage : the population density of Central Russia matched Western Europe, with the average peasant allotment similar in size to those in Germany and France ( at about 2, 6 " desyatina ", roughly 1, 1 hectare in 1900 ), but with only half the grain yield; this sharp difference from the rest of Europe was caused by the heavily outdated methods used by the Russian peasants in Central Russia : instead of the heavy iron plough low pulled by four to six horses in Western Europe, central Russian farmers often used a light wooden plough pulled by one horse or two oxen; they also used a small hand-sickle compared to the scythe or reaping hook which had been in use in Western Europe for over 50 years; sowing, winnowing and threshing was still done by hand compared to mechanised production in the rest of Europe; the use of chemical fertilisers were greatly below European standards; and advanced field rotations ( alternative between cereals and root crops ) were still largely unknown, while having been introduced in Western Europe in the mid-eighteenth century during the agricultural revolution.

“The time has come,” the Walrus said…
Boo, I have to leave for awhile. 😦 My surgery is tomorrow, and who knows how long I’ll be stuck in the hospital. The last week has been a whirlwind of getting things ready and making sure K will be ok while I’m gone (I’m sure he will be but of course I worry). By okay, I mean doing laundry and making sure he has enough food in the fridge. Yes, the man can do his own laundry, but I’m feeling very “motherly” this week I guess.
Anyway, we headed to the garden for about 20 minutes today, just so I could take some status pics and do some quick weeding. Who knows what it’ll look like when I come back. I don’t know how much time K will have to spend at the garden with all the time with me, at work, and driving back and forth he’ll have to do. He’ll try, but we’ll see. It has rained just about every other day this week and the garden has once again, exploded. Good God, why did we plant so much lettuce? K will try to give some away later this week. We will definitely only plant one bed next year. And two beds of spinach because it’s almost gone to seed and we didn’t get as much as we would have liked.
Our carrots are getting pretty tall. I bet we have cute little baby carrots hidden underneath the dirt! K will have to thin these out this week.
We’ve also got green strawberries a-growing! We went picking because we only have three plants, so it wouldn’t have given us enough to make jam, but hopefully we can enjoy enough for a snack later on when these are ripe.
The sugarsnap peas are officially out of control. They are going to be too tall for the stakes soon.
The red lettuce, the one we took from the “borderland”, has also officially rebounded. It’s huge.
Way too much freaking lettuce. They need to be thinned out so badly, and I just did some last week! There is NO room in the beds.
We have garlic scapes!
Brussels sprouts look happy. So do the tomatoes.
The zucchini plants have gotten so big and we have zucchini flowers and baby zucchinis just starting to grow!
The green beans have really shot up. We just planted this a week or two ago.
I really need to get going, so I’m not posting every single plant in the garden today. But all in all, things look great. Hopefully they won’t all be dead by the time I get back 🙂
One last look at the garden as it was today:
I’m setting this post up to actually be published tomorrow, 6/15, so I won’t be around to read any comments for awhile. I hope to be back posting within a month, so please check back in July for new posts. Thanks for being my blog readers!
