Quote:What adult boll weevils lack in size they make up for with their larvae’s ability to feed on and destroy cotton. Boll weevils entered the U.S. from Mexico in the late 1800s, when they were first spotted in Texas. By the 1920s they had spread through all of the major cotton-producing areas in the country. The scope of the damage was breathtaking, as were the control efforts thrown at this insect: at one time, one-third of the insecticide used in the U.S. was used to combat boll weevils.

Those things, as many know, are massive disease carriers and annoyances - so I'm wondering how to organically keep them out of a rice field.

The following link gives some helpful info. Anyway, quite a bit of info I wouldn't have imagined.

I'm assuming it's bad - as it is to drink - so what methods are there to get the salt out, and perhaps use on crops? Who has tried such a method? How did it work out?

Hello,

So here is a little about me.. I run my own gaming discussion board. I ran into this site/forum a while back and liked the look and feel of it so decided to register and be part of the community! I am currently in my final year studying Criminology and Forensic science. I have interests in gaming, computing and developing. If you would like to know more please feel free to ask.

Many thanks!

I was reading they like the cold. In that case, early spring was advised for planting. OK, when do you all plant them? Any other advice?

Obviously, for thousands of years people still ate food. What are some specific things they did? Anyway, surely the yields were not as big - yet, it didn't matter because the population wasn't that large!

From what I read, they are incredibly invasive. In fact, they are known to take over everything - so many people restrict them to closed-off areas.

Anyway, my own experience with the stuff is simply eating horseradish sauce - which taste really good on roast beef, Who has had it?

I have seen most of the gardens that uses Drippers, but so much leakage in them and most of them drips continously without timeset. Even Jain or some top companies they are getting more water in less time.

Do you use Screen or Disk filter for your small Gardens? I am looking to use one of the screen filter, but still not yet getting which one to be used. any suggestion shall be greatly appreciated for me.
