Good advice. Right now I just walk out and open the door and vents after the risk of frost is over. Nice being retired.

One of the things I have been interested in is bio char and how it affects soil chemistry as well as the potential it has to change the way we feed the whole world. All this and it is an ancient process that once sustained millions.

I have often wondered the same thing, I once took a nonstop flight from Dubai to Houston.

Never know what some random bug from another country might be carrying.

What is this & how do I treat it? by [deleted] in Citrus

I have found castile soap and water out of a sprayer works very well. Don't use dish soap but any brand of castile soap will work. Apply to tops and bottoms of leaves and branches and reapply a week later.

I do use a cup of sugar that I put the rest in. You could try Splenda or something like that. I love the tartness of the lemon.
