Pour some hot water down the hole, so you can put your hands in the dirt! Hahahaha , well, maybe?!?!
I had the problem of the ammi magus getting too large in the fall. It survived the winter but grew too large in the spring then it fell over in the rain. I wonder if it would have been fine if I cut it back in early spring, would it grow back stockier and sturdy?
Weeds that can be flowers, huh?
Have you tried “cow pen”?
I just seeded overseeded an unproductive bed. sunflowers surrounded with wildflower 4 brand mix and a thin line of florida wildgrasses. These beds are tanbsabd tilled uo and cement wgen its dryhard with red clay underneath.
The row has grass clippings tilled in with liquid fertilizer. Today just got a light rain! Yes these will not make it to flower till november andbits cold then. But for cover crop this will do
What daytime temperatures do you look for before direct seeding in the fall. I am in 8b and we too are at 100 degrees. But it looks like next week will be in the 70-80' daytime and 55 night time temps. Is that still too warm?
