@singlemaltgirl Every year I try to make the planting beds bigger, lay down mulch, mow less. Kinda drop in the ocean level, me doing my own stunts, but yes.

@babaohreally Western Washington, technically we're in a rain forest, but mostly it's just raining leaves right now.

Mikey-Sisyphus: (Stares up at Big Leaf Maples taller than some skyscrapers) Any chance we can stop with these leaves?

Hades: Keep at it and you might get 'em all raked by spring.

Mikey-Sisyphus: Um, there's like four acres of them. An hour or two and I'm wrecked.

Hades: Sucks to be you.

@SECRET_ASIAN_MAN Yeah, I watched a video of them talking about it last night. Normally I'm into strange electronica and odd stuff but I guess little GM binges happen. Have fun!

Last picture, after washing off entire civilizations of slugs. Drained 'em on the deckrail, then stacked 'em in the garage. I think they'll all be good for next summer too. Was a big help for trees a long ways from the house.

A closer look. We have lots of deer adventures, thus the tree zoo. I keep cutting away bits of the cages to let branches through or fill up the watering bags. We tried several different kinds and every one had the little drain hole plug up. A poke with a pocketknife worked fine.

Let's see if the n00b can do a thread... We had good results this summer with these watering bags for young fruit trees. They zip around the tree and you fill them with 20 gallons of water, then they do a slow trickle for a few hours.

Hello, friends. I'm visiting to listen and learn. Probably I'll post about working outside sometimes. Interests include and , among other things. Thanks for having me.
