Can't beat 'em? Eat 'em!! :) Before you peg me as a crazy hippy, nature lovin' nut (which I openly admit to that one!) Consider that the most hated weeds in our lawns and gardens and more nutritious than your multi vitamins. After all, many of the edible plants that we call weeds are close relatives to the vegetables and herbs that are cultivated in our gardens. While I totally understand the need for weed control I find eating them much more satisfying than toxic chemical warfare ;-)

Eastleigh Green livery 69005 with its work cut out heads along the very little used (Since January 2022) Burton to Coalville section of the KSL Burton to Knighton South Leicester freight branch. Cable thefts have made the signals taken out of use with all black with no power to them on the Moira end of the branch. 69005 heads 3Q99 0613 Toton TMD - Toton TMD via the KSL from the Burton end weed control train departing Toton 53 late, but 97 minutes late past me due to the state of the line and 20mph top speed when spraying. I didn't venture to far, with the line half a mile from my home I went to Coleorton cutting foot crossing for the above pictures, with Sinope bridge, Coleorton for the return.

The 2009 National Tree Day was held at Rosherville Reserve in Mosman on Sunday 2 August with about 50 people taking part.

 

The tree planting area was on the southern side of the reserve up from the children’s playground in the vicinity of previous years' National Tree Days. The trees were provided by Mosman Council along with a free BBQ for all participants.

 

Schools Tree Day was held at the same location on Friday 31 July with approximately 100 students from year 1 and 2 at Middle Harbour Public School and Beauty Point Public School participating.

 

In total approximately 600 indigenous trees, shrubs and groundcovers were planted over the two tree planting days.

 

Prior to the planting days the area was subject to weed control using contract bush regenerators and the area was covered in mulch. There will be follow-up weed control and plant watering to help restore the site to natural bushland.

On July 17, 2012, West Regional Conservationist Astor Boozer and Washington State Conservationist Roylene Rides at the Door visited the Puget Sound area of Washington State to tour three Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) projects utilizing the Wetlands Reserve Program (WRP), Organic Environmental Quality Incentives Program (EQIP) and Puget Sound Salmon Recovery Partnership (PSSRP) EQIP funding.

 

All three sites are part of a larger Union River/Hood Canal Restoration area consisting of several hundred acres of land, including riparian forest, shrub/scrub and forested wetlands, salt marsh, and near shore habitat. Activities for habitat improvement as part of the EQIP and WRP contracts included dike removal for estuary restoration, tree planting and post plant weed control in a floodplain, fish passage barrier replacement and channel re-meander, along with addressing resource concerns on a local organic farm. Collectively these projects will improve habitat for numerous aquatic and terrestrial species including five species of Puget Sound salmon, three of which are populations listed as Threatened under the Endangered Species Act.

 

Description: This photo of the baldcypress (Taxodium distichum) was taken on March 11th, 2022 in Orland Park, IL. I noticed it was one of the larger trees in the area, and I found out that baldycypress trees are often long-living, large, and slow growers. These trees are able to adapt very easily to the fact that they can live and grow in many different types of soil (wet, dry, swampy, or salty). The baldcypress do grow differently in size depending on the weed control and soil moisture that they are in. They are dealing with competition between plants that are in the same species as them. This is an example of intraspecific competition in which plants of the same species are fighting for resources. When the weed control and the soil moisture are good then the species will grow big which is how they are supposed to grow because there is no competition for resources. On the other hand, when the weed control and soil moisture are not good then the plants compete for the resources available. If the resources become too low for the plant to continue to grow then the reason for this population to stop growing is that competition of resources/ food is density-dependent. Density-dependent has to do with a population decrease or stoppage because of disease, competition, predators, or food. These plants were also planted in a residential area in which a person weeded and water the plant themselves. When a human took care of the plant the plant grew very well. If the plant is affected by something like climate or human interference then it is considered density-independent.

The wagon that travels alongside the cornpicker to catch the newly husked ears. They will be hauled to, and loaded into, a corn-crib to air dry over the winter. When needed, a few ears can be retrieved from the crib and the kernels will be shelled from the ear with a hand turned shelling machine. That part was fun for visiting city kids. Did you notice the 'bang board on the one side of the wagon...it kept wayward ears from overshooting the wagon.

 

Before corn pickers, a man or two walked down adjacent rows of corn picking and husking each ear by hand and tossing it into the wagon. The bang board served the same purpose there.

 

Trivia: Corn was planted in rows 30-36 inches apart, depending on the horses rear end...there had to be enough room for the horse to walk with out trampling the corn or breaking stalks because his a** was too fat. Of course, in the fertile Iowa soil weeds grew like, well, weeds. Enough weeds could draw all the nutrients away from the desired crop, so they had to be eliminated.Since there was no chemical weed control, a horsedrawn cultivator was used. It was equipped with 'shoes' that glided just below the ground surface cutting off weeds at the root. If time and weather permitted the corn rows were also cross-cultivated to eliminate even more weeds. So the corn had to be planted 36" apart in the cross rows, also. Thus, the corn plants grew in a 36 x 36-inch grid. The spot the corn was actually planted was called a 'hill' and to increase the yield two or three stalks of corn were grown in each hill. One corn seed equaled one corn plant, so at planting time the conversation included the phrase, "planting two (or three) to a hill"
