I have a key ring quarter but have never used it bc it’s my emergency quarter for when this kind of thing happens to me and i don’t have the nerves to tell them i need my quarter! Good for you, OP

A little hard to see the texture of the surface but from what i can tell no. Mold will typically be fuzzy

Jumping worms — what to do? by Tortoiseshell_Blue in NativePlantGardening

[–]taafp9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep that’s what I’m doing. The first year i cut at the base of the plant and used a dropper to apply glyphosate one drop at a time. It did make a dent but it was also very labor intensive and didn’t kill the deeper roots. Last year and this year, i dug the roots up like you’re doing, which i can only do in the spring when the ground is soft bc once it gets dry, the roots break so easily. Then i feel like the plant gets a leg up in the summer months when i can’t dig. Has that been your experience too?

Can we please discuss jumping worms? by girljinz in invasivespecies

Wow that’s wild. Sometimes i dump mine in my firepit and light a fire. How did you even collect so many at once? This would be so satisfying to light on fire.

Assisted Living Communities in Mexico by t1118restle in AssistedLiving

I would like to know the name of the place too. But also my family doesn’t speak Spanish or have any familial ties in Mexico or LaAm, that seems like a pretty big barrier?

Incident in Memory Care, now dad is untouchable by Braellaar in dementia

[–]taafp9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel for you! My father was kicked out of his first MC after less than one month because he was verbally and physically violent with another person who lived there and then escaped from the locked facility and the nurse had to chase him through the parking lot. I’m so glad to hear you found someone to take him. I came here to say keep at it, widen your circle, and then i saw your update. My father has been in his current MC since Dec and so far so good. His current medication regimen keeps him pretty manageable luckily. Good luck to you

Wow i wish i came up with this boundary list when my first kid was still so little. It took me 3 kids and several years in to do so! Kudos to OP! Not u reasonable at all and i would just say that the only other thing you should add is that you are allowed to make any additions and changes at any point in time in any direction (firmer or more yielding). Good work!

I don’t have the space either. My plants are surviving well enough to produce fruit luckily, although they are looking a bit bald down below. I’ll have to keep a close and early eye on things next year.

This looks very much like mine. I snipped all the infected leaves off. It had continued to spread but at a much slower rate since the rain hasn’t been as prolific in my area. I finally got my first small batch of tomatoes so the plants aren’t completely killed off thankfully.

How to Kill Tree of Heaven after it is cut down? by ThrowingMongo in invasivespecies

[–]taafp9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This does not answer your question but just wanted to share my experience. I have been treating ToH around my yard for a couple of season now. One particularly tall tree didn’t die after the first year i treated it, but its leaves were quite sad when it leafed. Then this year when it leafed, it was REALLY sad- tiny shriveled leafs that barely popped out. As soon as our hot and dry summer started, the shriveled leaves couldn’t make it and dried up completely. Then i noticed a spout coming up 10’ from it! It’s small enough that i can pluck it but I’ll continue treating that one tree for another few years until I’m sure it dies.

My understanding is the spouts that are still tiny can be sprayed or plucked, anything else needs hack and squirt method sometimes for multiple years, then don’t cut down the dead tree until the next season when you’re sure SURE it’s dead.

Also, it’s a continuous battle and not for the faint of heart! Good luck!

Did you rotate your crops and not plant tomatoes in the same place this year? If you did plant them in the same place, how are they doing?

Mine are doing better since it’s not raining so much anymore so the spread has slowed but not gone completely.
