    Anyone have experience using a scythe to cut grass?

    I've been very interested in using a scythe for my lawn (specifically an austrian style scythe, if it matters). I don't have too much grass, and its a bit far from the garage so having to pull out the mower and use gas is a bit annoying. A scythe seems much better for the environment and like a...

    USA source for Rosella seeds?

    I hope you understand just how accusatory you're coming off right now, I'd be much more responsive to a kinder, more informative stance. I'm not shipping them 'all over the world', I'm shipping them literally a state away from me, and I bought these seeds well before people had even heard of...

    Lemon leaves growing weird?

    It does look like citrus leaf miner, checked the leaves and saw the little buggers chomping their way through. Thank you! Good to see that they can pretty much be left alone, was ready to suit up and attack haha

    Lemon leaves growing weird?

    My lemon tree seems very healthy for the most part, however almost all of the new leaves it sends out look rumpled and messed up with this weird sheen over them. Anyone seen this before/know what it is? And if so, how to get rid of it?

    Mushrooms; What do i need to know?

    I recently started growing oyster mushrooms, and I'm in a bit of an opposite situation down in texas, where its far too hot and humid to grow outside. I've found no issues with growing inside though! The first thing I did was buy premade kits, just to get a feel of things, and then I actually...

    Quick and cheap fence?

    Just found out some mastiffs are going to be staying with us for a bit, and if theres anything I know its that they hold the trophy for #1 garden tramplers and sapling killers- very few plants survive the cute brutes. My yard is basically two conected rectangles, and I just need to block of the...

    Growing edible things in the aquarium?

    Trying to give myself more things to eat that I've grown, and got to thinking about my aquarium. Its a 55 gallon planted aquarium, but (at the moment...) I can't eat anything I grow in there. I spend so much time taking care of the plants that I figured why not get something that'll yield some...

    What do yall grow during summer?

    This year I'm trying to have food year round, but I'm out of ideas as to what to plant during the texas summers. I have a couple ideas but I'm not sure what things can survive those humid, 100f+ months. What kind of things are a good idea to grow/try out?

    Seed sites?

    I use purepollination.com and ufseeds.com, really like them and their prices. ufseeds probably has more variety, and purepollination has really good seed kits, like you can get packs of different strains of tomatoes, onions, or carrots, or one of their big vegetable variety packs for a lower...

    Are seeds still good after going through the wash?

    Accidentally left a pack of egyptian spinach seeds in my pocket and sent them through the washer and dryer. Sat in the same pocket for maybe a week after, even looks like a couple of them tried to sprout at some point. What are the chances these seeds are still good?

    Howdy from Houston, Texas!

    I'm a little bit west of you, in the missouri city area. And hadn't heard of it yet, I'll have to look into it. Thank you for the heads up!

    Howdy from Houston, Texas!

    Hi everyone! Been watching the self sufficient me channel for a while and didn't even know there was a forum until today, excited to join. First got into the channel because most other gardening channels didn't offer information that was useful for my climate, so I went to search out a channel...
