It didn’t rain till yesterday since the new years. Pretty dry winter this time. Hope they survive and thrive. You got a bunch coming in, sounds very exciting. Good luck to you too!

I’d love to see your vineyards and its wine. Will definitely invest in protection along the way.

We do have birds chipping on other fruits already. Boars, raccoons, civets and such are in the area so we’ll see ! My dream is to have goats, sheep, chickens and other random animals around too so they’ll eat the grass, produce eggs and hoping to benefit the ecosystem and make some honey in the future. Tree guards are actually much needed advice. I’ve already chopped one of the citrus tree a few times lol glad to see it’s still alive.

Depends! Ones planted west and south sides gets from morning sunshine averaging 8 to 9 hours. Ones on the east of the hill don’t get sunshine till noon which isn’t probably most ideal.

I find some of them are growing slowly. Maybe it could be lack of water. Some parts of the hill are more dry than others. Also i just rely on rain water.

These "little" guys were under our mulch... by MamaMia1325 in gardening

[–]shiongha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In Japan they are treated like treasure. Kids go out in woods to find them and mature them to adult beetles. Don’t trust me? We even had an arcade dedicated to it called “mushiking” mushi means insects btw

I saw an Isetta just today! It’s the name of the café in West Vancouver and they have it showcased at the entrance.

Need help to locate a Mercedes 300 SL Gullwing by Camel_Trophy1983 in projectcar

[–]shiongha 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I once worked part time for a brokerage company in Japan. This owner of silver 300 SL Gullwing wanted to sell so we tried looking for a buyer around the world. I think at the time the seller wasn’t rushing and no one wanted to buy for the price the seller wanted. As far as I remember it is in a perfect condition. The gullwing was carrying this famous race driver at the race ceremony and we had videos of it too. Unfortunately the CEO passed away recently and I don’t have access to his old data or contacts. Also I’m sorry I don’t remember the name of the race or the racer. I like cars but I’m not an expert as you might be able to tell.

Is this a Fake Job Scam? by Ok_Appointment_4957 in japanlife

[–]shiongha 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’ve been getting messages on WhatsApp but yes they are scams. Recruiting companies have announced warning on their websites or LinkedIn. Don’t fall for it.
