Eco-friendly Cleaning

pride month is coming up soon. whatever you do please do not forget about trans women.

Proud MAGA child molesters and rapists were all assholes on social media. I see a trend.

Birds of a feather. #abusers #projection

i must not get takeout. takeout is the wallet-killer. takeout is the little-death that brings total obliteration. i will face the kitchen, fridge, and pantry. i will make choices about what to cook and then execute them. when hunger is gone there will be nothing. only i will remain.

this!!

The racism perpetuates the double standard.

If they don't have the right to due process, no one does!!

Soil solarization for weed control

Here’s an interesting idea for reducing weeds.  I think it would be useful for areas with a significant density of out-of-control weeds, to give the area a restart.  It’s an alternative to using chemical weed killers, but as the article states, the downside is that sheets of plastic are used.  Heavier plastic sheets that can be reused for several years would help offset the use of the plastic. 

A few years ago, I was recovering from an illness that left me very fatigued for a few months.  The weeds in my raspberry patch were proliferating, and I didn’t have the energy to pull them.  I cut the flowers off the weeds before they could produce seeds, and the next year there were almost none of that kind of weed in my raspberry patch.  So, with an annual weed that relies on yearly reseeding, one way to control it is to prevent seed formation by mowing or clipping the flowers.

Soil Solarization for Weed Control

Have you tried soil solarization? Covering your garden soil with clear plastic can raise soil temperatures enough to kill dormant weed seeds
