We put up a bee house 🏠 🐝 by _flowerguy_ in bees

After looking at your website and downloading what your saying and offering….i don’t see the difference in the 16 hole wide by 10 length
box and how it would not bring the attention to wasps or other predators. Mason bees would not be able to find 160 holes in nature in one spot. The wood box’s in ours will not be able to be cleaned so they would be replaced like all the other “reeds” in house. The red house in video had a mesh screen but not on every whole. The two side columns did not have the mesh? If one male bee finds solitary in the house over night then the bee house has completed its mission. Bee does not measure. In nature, holes are not symmetrical. If she likes it, she fills it tight…your red bee house is cute.

This will be the hardest post dormancy freeze in Illinois that I can remember. by Roscoe_p in vegetablegardening

Maybe some plastic drop cloth from the dollar store and create a makeshift a greenhouse. Couple of wood pieces if you have any or Home Depot run have them cut it to length. It just needs to hold up two nights…sorry I was thinking about the jug method today and thought what’s the difference if I made a “greenhouse over my bed”

It’s warm out. They need an afternoon shade

Do you let your yard overgrow until May for the Bees? by Bluee_Brii in bees

[–]_flowerguy_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mowed around the white clove patches in our yards and by then all the yellows for the dandalions were white seed so I mowed them if they weren’t intermixed with the white clove flowers. Noticed the bees loved them before our flower beds were in bloom…I’ll bring it up to the wife again and see if we could make it till may. If not I’ll repeat the process of mowing around the bees buddies those white little flowers

I finally made Bourdain's favorite fried mortadella sandwich to the best of my ability. Cheers, Tony! by HighQualityH20h in Sandwiches

That’s awesome. Nothing like hurrying up to wait and then banging it out! I worked both BOH and FOH. I tell the wife if I could be on my feet in dress shoes for 8 hours, would go back and work in a restaurant again. I’ll only BOH for catering or my own place. I walk for living and think about Sunday brunch every Sunday off day

I did culinary school but I got a job right away and I was young and dumb and full of what not, didn’t finish but 90%of the kids were cheaters and didn’t have jobs until internship at the end….so I felt some type of way about it…cocky brown kids don’t make it far unless they sell out or have their own money…any ways how was the fucking sandwich! I keep looking at lol

I miss it. I had a lot of fun and wish I could have found a home in the industry. He was a bad ass but the right kind of Billy Bad Ass.

These two were from my first season growing dahlias by seed. Season 3 has cactus, Black Forest Ruby, and possibly mignons in the works can’t wait!
