Comments on: I weeded today – A Sure Sign of Spring http://www.thisgardenisillegal.com/2008/04/i-weeded-today-a-sure-sign-of-spring.html Gardening isn't a hobby, it is an obsession Tue, 16 Mar 2010 18:41:47 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: Cindy http://www.thisgardenisillegal.com/2008/04/i-weeded-today-a-sure-sign-of-spring.html/comment-page-1#comment-2460 Cindy Thu, 24 Apr 2008 02:15:59 +0000 http://www.thisgardenisillegal.com/2008/04/i-weeded-today-a-sure-sign-of-spring.html#comment-2460 I just moved to Madison on 6 acres.I have tall, talk-like "weeds" that are covered in thorns. they are killers and i am trying to kill them. any idea how? we have lots of trees and i find a small vine-like thing crawling up the tree. it has feet/feelers and it sticks to the tree, you have to pry it off. how do i get rid of this one? and one more -- it is a vine-like ground creeper. I can pull it up and it can be 4 - 5 feet long traveling on the ground.

"I'll just lean down here for a minute and pull a couple weeds...." I spend so much time just wandering through and surveying my garden for weeds and bugs. It's actually very relaxing.

I'm rather surprised to see several cardinals around though. Dirt under the fingernails isn't a problem for me at the moment as I work at a music instrument repair shop. We have a huge ultrasonic tank out back that even gets all the dirt out of the grooves on your fingertips. It hurts but works great. On second thought, it might not be the best thing for my hands. Oh well. Robins tend to be a sign of winter here in the deep south as they come our way as it gets colder. I’m rather surprised to see several cardinals around though.
