[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.
