If that's true, it's no wonder she made out so well in the divorce.

Looks like I'm going back to Ohio. I can send a few scions to someone who is grafting Callery pear for wildlife. I have a Callery that produces pears a little smaller than a golf ball. I also have a few that grew well on Callery rootstock, but I don't know the varieties.

I think it's like that everywhere. Certainly is in Ohio.

If i had a lot of.money, I'd be buying outside of Columbus, Ohio.

100% It's the same mechanism that let's the rich get richer. If you have tons of money, you can afford to throw out a chunk of cash on whatever you like. You get to enjoy tlwhat you bought, and if it blows up in value, all the better. And if it does down in value, so what? And you can price...

My grandfather had a verbal agreement with someone for first right of refusal. She sold it to someone else. Court said verbal agreements are worth almost as much as the paper they're printed on.

Imagine dropping 10k into bitcoin when it was under a dollar. You'd be a billionaire.

I think it's cold enough in Ohio to killed twigs. Here I have some worries, but it doesn't get quite as cold here on the coast usually. But it's darn cold here now. I have lost some potter seedlings this winter, which I've never experienced before.

Interesting he thinks representatives should be loyal to the president, when that is not at all their job. Representatives should do just that: represent their constituents. They are also supposed to be a check on the President's power.

Most RV antifreeze is propylene glycol and ethanol. Both of these molecules are considered polar. Garlon 3 should dissolve in RV antifreeze. Garlon 3 is an amine form of Troclopyr. It is a polar molecule, so it should dissolve fine in ethanol and propylene glycol. The ester form of...

Funny you mention that. They're one of the ones I was thinking of when I wrote that about stalking and still hunting. I like those guys.

Typically February or March. Collected everything first two weeks of January this year to avoid freeze damage.

CAC, DAX, FTSE all ripping this morning. Silver still trending up. SLOOOOOWWWWWW day in US markets so far.

It's in Knox county, Ohio. The deer were digging through snow to eat it on their way to and from a corn feeder. The ground is gravely and poor quality, and it floods every spring. I'm not good at identifying grasses at all. Unfortunately I didn't have access to a plant ID app at the...

I've had a lot of failures due to the same problem. Last year the Korean Giant scions I grafted bloomed and then did nothing. They stayed green until summer but were dead when I checked in November. I took scions from a gnarly old Callery pear that has good fruit for deer. I'm not holding my...

Thermals can work on big trees, too. If you have a high stand on the east ot south side of a large, straight tree trunk, on a sunny day the sun hits it in the morning and warms it up, and it can act like a chimney and draw your scent upwards. It's worth going down there in early spring to test...

Nikkei popped and dropped, down 1.25%. Heng Seng is down 2.6%. Shanghai index is down 2.5%. Silver selling off. Gold selling off. It's a bloodbath in Asia this morning. Silver is forming an interesting pattern that is worth watching. EDIT: Silver did a double bottom bounce and is trending...

Epigenetics are just genetics that are influenced by environment. Technically speaking, it is a God-given inherent trait, but understanding it allows you to tease it out through herd management, a big part of which is nutrition. You made a good point about switching genes off again. That...

That's what I've been thinking. We'll find out in May what the Kentucky republicans think about it. Personally, I think one Trump at a time is plenty. I would prefer representatives be a bit more independent and represent their constituents, like they're supposed to do.

I'd be happier with longer seasons and fewer tags.
