I often share this quote with Our Members . . .
“Until one is committed, there is hesitancy, the chance to draw back, always ineffectiveness. Concerning all acts of initiative (and creation), there is one elementary truth, the ignorance of which kills countless ideas and splendid plans: that the moment one definitely commits oneself, then Providence moves too. All sorts of things occur to help one that would never otherwise have occurred. A whole stream of events issues from the decision, raising in one’s favour all manner of unforeseen incidents and meetings and material assistance, which no man could have dreamt would have come his way. I have learned a deep respect for one of Goethe’s couplets:
Whatever you can do, or dream you can, begin it.
Boldness has genius, power, and magic in it!”
? William Hutchison Murray
Hi Mike my name is Andrew Ridley and I was wondering what would happen if you mix mulch, garden soil, cow manure used coffee grounds, egg shells, and a mixture of apple cider vinegar and water? I used a 20oz. Spray bottle and mixed 1/3 apple cider vinegar and the rest was water. I did it to keep out the pests and the other animals out go the garden because I am growing vegetables. And now it looks like I have mushrooms growing along with the other plants. Also if they are mushrooms are they edible? P.S. sorry this comment is so long Andrew Ridley
Andrew,
I don’t know how to identify edible mushrooms. Sorry.
Hi Mike, I have a question about crepe myrtle. They say they are hardy in our zone 6 here in northern WV but we have had no luck. They always die back in winter and come back from the root with no chance to develop onto trees. Have you had much experience with them and what is the hardiest for our area? We see them grow beautifully in Maryland which is not much further from us. Would love to get some into trees. Thank you.
Carol,
I don’t know much about them, just don’t survive at all here in northern Ohio.
Can you still order the book on propagation one that tell how to propagate cedar pine trees

Hi Mike
I would like to buy 2 fertiliser applicators. I would like to know if you can send them to New Zealand. I think they are a marvellous invention.
I look for to your reply
Regards
Don Watson
Don,
That product was actually invented by one of our members and it has been extremely popular. You can’t really order through me for international shipping. Contact John here, https://www.fertileeze.com/ and tell him that I sent you.
