Afternoon all

Did some weed picking, raking, and deadheading roses, then a workout. Then worked on some AVS site tweeking, now building my first free site.

No deer on fire here either. We still have a burn ban going on, which means I have huge piles of weeds in my back yard waiting for cooler weather when I can burn them all.

That makes me think of the cane fires in Hawaii when they would burn off the green before harvesting. Drove by those a few times with 20' flames, they were pretty awesome.

Have a good one everyone!

There is the yearly burning of the sugar cane here too. Fortunately that goes on northeast of where we live so usually the easterly wind off the ocean keeps the smoke away.

Can't you make a compose heap of the weeds?

I really, really want to I probably have weeds piled up 5' tall covering an area the size of my living room. But don't I have to grind them all up into chunks to start it?

I don't think so, just keep them damp and they should rot into nice black soil. At least that is what happens to our piles.

Maybe get some compose starter bacteria. I've never had to use it but I live in the tropics where everything rots if left outside.

Haven't read it yet, but Let It Rot is supposed to be a very good guild for composing.
