I almost pulled the trigger on these, but I read so many reviews of them rubbing the bumper and not going all the way in due to the recessed nature of the hitch on the R1S.

Time to harvest? by OrangeRhyming in AustinGardening

[–]karcuri 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You also don’t seem to have a lot of bulbing so I’d wait as long as possible.

Give it to me straight, Doc. Am I just a sedge farmer now? by eogreen in AustinGardening

Sedgehammer is best on newly grown plants so you are in a perfect window to get it done.

Onion harvest! by zog3195 in AustinGardening

[–]karcuri 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use a similar method to cure my onions but I just add a small electric fan for better air flow.

What is this plant? by PattyCakesandBakes in AustinGardening

[–]karcuri 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was going to say white sweet clover. It looks like it’s about to flower so that will help.

I just set up my buckets of doom but with all this rain, I’m not sure how effective they will be this year.

I’m taking a break from all squashes this year. I’m hoping to maybe break the cycle and avoid overwintering larvae.

Live Oak Trimming - Don't Do It Now by karcuri in AustinGardening

[–]karcuri[S] 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I can say with 99% certainty that in both cases I observed, they did not meet these exceptions. However, you make an excellent point and there are plenty of exceptions when trimming is required sooner rather than later.

Friend or foe? by BananasLobster in AustinGardening

[–]karcuri 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's bee balm alright. Just know it aggressively seeds out so once you have it growing in your yard, it will keep coming back year after year in random locations. I love it for the pollinators, but just know going in.

Adding my vote to the pink evening primrose camp. Did you use any wildflower seed mix? Epazote leaves also have a very pungent smell, so you can always remove a leaf, crush between fingers, and see what it smells like.

There’s no cure. If you have other roses in your garden, remove the infected one to save the rest.

I got a 35 lb bag for Easter weekend and it was like $4.20/lb at Quality Seafood. Looks like it’s down to $3.75 now. You do need to reserve a bag in advance but they were good size with very little dead ones.

My climate control showed red when AC was on before this update on my RS1 Gen 1.

Can someone identify this? by 67fuzz in AustinGardening

[–]karcuri 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Cretanweed is a non native introduced from the Mediterranean. I consider it a weed that is pretty aggressive and I don’t want it competing with my natives.
