  1. Nothing worse than someone doubling and tripling down when they’re wrong
  2. 31.4° +SN Actually getting some drifting in the higher gusts. lol
  3. 31.7° and growth/intensity picking up. Pretty breezy too.
  4. Pretty cool to see flakes in NYC this late into May. Run of the mill cold.
  5. Have some spots here that are close to needing their first mow. Areas that had lingering snow and puddles are still lagging behind. Forsythia has bloomed and the crabapple and willow are trying to leaf out. Everything else has been swelling buds for weeks.
  6. What are you using for posts? Basic round PT posts rated for ground contact? My 4x4 posts in my run I used concrete and went down 24”. So I have 6ft AGL with the posts.
  7. Headed down the same path as lavarock now.
  8. I just got my 2020 Dirt Doctors NH catalog in the mail and they have this in it... I’m thinking about trying a yard or two and spreading it in a few spots in the front yard and along the driveway where the grass is thin and the topsoil is thinning.
  9. I had a load of top soil I never used last year next to my run and all of that started growing in it. Looks like it only propagates via seed so it must’ve been in the soil to begin with. Great. Although from what I’m reading it is easy to win the battle with if and when I ever want to. It’s a legume like clover so it’s a nitrogen fixer. I was just really surprised how much the chickens loved it when they tried it. Their reaction may be neck and neck number 1 with plantain on the weed list.
  10. Anyone hot an ID on this weed? My chickens eat it like it’s crack. It looks like a clover, but it appears to be something else. The stems from the previous season are fairly hard/woody. The leaves almost have a fleshy feel about them...somewhere between a clover feel and a sedum feel.
  11. Will take until June for that here. lol
  12. Does anyone know when I should expect elm (specifically slippery/red elm) to drop seeds in the spring? I know they're fairly early, but I'm not sure how that applies to my climo.
