[compost_tea] Re: New Member In Oklahoma



I didn't say anything about alphalpha.  I raise bermuda/fescue.  
Alphalpha requires too much irrigating.  I don't go that route.
As far as the tea was concerned, I put the compost into 200 lb tubs 
and filled partly with water, let it setup then strained then applied 
with a sprayer for gardens.  

I cannot afford a tractor no longer, due to the x taking all my 
ranching money and my having to start over (his 2nd marriage, my 
5th.  2 died)  Michael also tore apart my Ford tractor and said he 
was going to rebuild it.  It never got rebuilt, sat in my barn for 
more than 2 years and so I sold it as is.  For $600.00 to pay part of 
my hospital bill after a visit to the e/r.  I also sold my brush hog 
as well as my boxblade.  No use in having it if I don't have a 
tractor.  
I just finished putting the carpeting on my bass boat that he tore 
apart.  It's ready for the water now.  And I love to fish...lol....

This year I finally bought a sprayer that I can pull behind my "lawn 
tractor".   I know it sounds funny  a rancher using a lawn tractor on 
her fields, but hey it's a resourse and I use it.   I do  what I can 
to make it in a "MAN'S" world!   I don't care who makes fun of me 
(even if it does hurt).  I am not going to rely on a man to do what I 
can try to do.  Even if I am now disabled!

Have a great day.
