  1. bedroom ac installed last week. living room ac installed yesterday. Ready for the heat the next couple of days
  2. the frost a few weeks ago may have had an impact on them. lots of invasive japanese knotweed still looks dead a couple weeks after the frost
  3. thank you for the detailed response. I have had similar rainfall distribution the one I am worried about is in a low-lying area that is typically pretty wet. it is well out of the reach of a hose (about 500' from my house) so I'll dump water from a bucket around it every few days.
  4. been similar up here too. Around $3.30 is about as high as it goes, drops down to around $3, then creeps back up towards $3.30. it's almost monthy it does that
  5. plus it is Memorial day weekend. Lots of people travel by car, so the prices almost always get bumped up few days prior
  6. thank you. should I give it a good watering every few days?
  7. Mr. Tamarack, on another subject, i have some young (5-10 years) oak trees that were budding and had small leaves when the frost hit a couple weeks ago. now all the vegetation is dead/wilted. will these trees come back? a couple I don't care a lot about, but there is one (the older of the 4) that I really don't want to be dead. thoughts?
  8. i noticed this past weekend fewer black flies but more mosquitos. At least bug spray mostly keeps the skeeters away, but it has zero effect on the blackies. while on my morning walk today, I was thinking that it seems like the overnights have been fairly chilly. I don't mind the cool overnights-keeps me from installing.
  9. Was? hmm, I didn’t realize this Rainer was over. interested in reading your final tally tomorrow
  10. yeah I have a bunch of young maples out in my way back yard that took a licking with the cold the other morning. saggy and droopy. I also have a few young oaks, all the tiny leaves and stuff look dead. i am sure both maples and oaks will come back after some rain and warmer temps. or so I really really hope!
  11. i just noticed it in my area this morning. Yes, it got smoked. i really wish that was all it would take to get rid of that shit, but we know it will be back, and it will be back big. I hate that stuff with the fire of a million suns. almost as much as I hate oriental bittersweet.
  12. there are products that you can spray on the plants to keep the deer away. Just don't smell it, it is horrific, but the smell goes away quickly
  13. you would think that they would have been smart enough to run away from all the green dots, and especially the yellow, red, and orange ones.
  14. I grew up not far from there. brush fires every single spring. Damn kids lighting shit on fire
  15. your first mistake is reading social media for weather forecasts.
  16. nice day, was warm earlier, but the gusty NW wind is a tad chilly. Yet another great yard work day. 4 in a row!
  17. fuckin’ black flies are loving this weather as much as I am. hard to do more than a couple hours of yard work. Oh well, time for a beer! Beer
