  1. my random sunflowers are starting to bloom too! we have two varieties growing. Cannot wait to see how big the flower in the second pic gets, its stalk is thicc
  2. I till the garden one time, just before planting. I don't even till the dead stuff at the end of the growing season, we just add the brush right on top and let it all break down on its own. One the brush is burned to ash, then we till it all in. We have clayey soil below the surface but hard compacted soil right on top, so we've found it best to till just before planting.
  3. my veggie garden space acts as a brush pile in the off season, and just before i'm getting ready to plant, we burn all the brush and till it into the soil. its been working out great, my garden grows really nicely. we also redid our entire front flower garden space, all of it tilled up and then put mulch down. haven't had any issues (except the flooding, different story). i recommend tilling whenever you can!
  4. getting split by two cells at work. pouring with T&L north at home, and south. but just some clouds and distant thunder here.

  12. fast moving line came through not long ago. have a nice view of the clouds as they moved east.
  13. yeah, i see the blue box being issued for Baltimore south, maybe DC south even.
  14. Ian had posted about it a couple days before. the signs were there that a derecho was possible, but they are hard to solidify a forecast for until they've formed. and even then, they have to hold together as they make the trek.
  15. ha, i'm not famous, but thank you for the compliment! can you send it up my way?
  16. thats why i dont bother hiding who i am most places. i'm pretty easy to find if someone wanted to "doxx" me.
