    Transplanting wild shrubs

    You can cut Aspen before they bud. We put them in a 5 gallon pail with water and rooting liquid. Then we drilled holes and stuck them in the dirt. They rooted and were doing well. Until I got worried about over use of the well and shut the water off. They were less than half inch around when we...

    2026 Garden

    We hit 18 the other morning my asparagus didn't do so well. Just got some CowPots in and transplanted some cucumbers and acorn squash into bigger pots. We only got .10 of rain last night but it sure has made the grass green up today.

    House Insurance Canceled due to Wildfires Potential

    brymore, the article/story on the news isn't going to help anyone in Boise county now. One of the major reasons I refused to live in the pine trees or near or on the forest boundary. You need to do a lot of shopping. Good luck.

    2026 Garden

    buckbull, it was so tight we turned the whole pipe loose. When we got it out the little drain hole was totally plugged with tree roots. Right now the new one is working great.

    2026 Garden

    Just ordered $400 worth of seeds and other items from one company. Warm today but still too early and cold for plants. My local store I usually buy plants from burnt down the other night. Don't know if they saved the greenhouses or not? So I have to start my seeds to be on the safe side this year.

    I think I’m done with big game hunting

    I'm to the same spot. I'm done hunting elk. I did go and help the other half last fall. Just to hard on the body. I'll still chase my deer and upland game birds. We're both in our late 60's with no young friends or kids. So getting help isn't there.

    Mountain Feist dogs

    I know of Ladner BMC not really thinking of them. We had three Kemmer Stock Mountain Curs before our dog now. Hard headed bunch of mutts. Chased them all over the country. 😁
