OMG! That's horrible!
It makes me so sad to hear that!
Yes
Aubrey they are already talking about cancelling the Air Races but emotions are high right now. We will see what happens.
Elizabeth how scary for your friends! So glad they left early!
Ron you are very welcome. I never heard of that company before but they have been in business for awhile now. Should I order a small amount first to check freshness etc? I don't mind if the seed is not as clean as it could be. I'm only seeding a couple of acres to start and I don't have a drilling rig so it's not a big deal but I do care that the seed is good quality and free of musty odors.
I read all the stuff you linked to and it looks like Steve and I have quite a bit of prep to do before seeding. We do have some chainlink panels we can use to "rake" the soil with. It's already framed. Do I need to use additional weight on the panels or are the metal frames enough? Never done this before. Oh another article I found says that the Crested wheatgrass helps remove certain pesticide residues from the soil better than most plants! Another plus! Not that most of us live on lots that were used as farm land and heavily sprayed with pesticides but still good to know!
I really love that it is more fire resistant than many other plants. 2 neighbors of mine have had fires this last week! Boy, I've gone my whole life without seeing stuff like this and now 2 in 1 week! Kinda making me a little paranoid about fire now.
Sheryl I have to tell Steve that! He will feel so much better about how long it took him to get our first coop up. Although it never really did get completely finished, the chickens were settled in well before they started to lay.
