My new best friend, Mellie, posted a frightening new way to plant potatoes. I'm trying to keep it on the down low as our neighbor has an enTIRE shed dedicated to what I now realize must be Potato Ag Remedial.
Last summer, he asked us to come over and help him rotate his stock. He was just out of surgery and couldn't lift but wanted to find a pair of big truck tires for his buddy, Uncle Ron. We were shocked to see about 150 tires that he'd stacked under a leaking roof, creating a mosquito breeding project that any University, well, at least any Community College, would be proud of.
When I asked him what Uncle Ron wanted the tires for, Buster told me that he liked to burn them up at his camp because, "old tires burn good".
Makes individual ecological planning seem so futile, doesn't it?
As soon as Easter Weekend is over, someone has a lot of yard work to do. Look how much greener the grass is in just a week.

I'm jealous. You stole my Mellie. Okay, back to trolling the Internet for a friend!
ReplyDeleteLook at all the room you have for a garden!!! I don't see a problem with stacking tires for a nice potato crop. Maybe you could paint the tires..a nice ethereal color..or several. Just watched Color Splash on HGTV..and I think a moss green and a brown would be nice. I am sure your honey would love it.
