You can look at wildlife/pollinator gardening. There are different focuses like rewilding or even restoration. There are also a lot of companies willing to sell incredibly invasive plants while calling them nice things, so buy from a reputable source if you do buy plants or seeds.

Absolutely, and just to expand on why they can be wildly inaccurate. Local governments have different ways of updating assessments. Most are simply small increases to the assessment every year. Small enough that they haven't kept up with the market. If you watch, there are usually huge jumps on assessed value when a property sells because that sale value (aka market value) gets recorded as the assessed value.

Refreezing is fine for safety (if you thawed it correctly). The main reason not to freeze and thaw things multiple times is that tiny ice crystals do damage to the structure of the food each time freezing happens.

In meat, that damage makes your meat dry out easier when cooking. That's normally a bad thing, bit it might actually be a good idea for making jerky.

In short, I would have no hesitation using refrozen meat to make jerky

Earthworms are invasive in parts of North America...

I appreciate your sacrifice. It would've been me if not you

Also, donate your time to review papers, an absolutely critical part of "peer reviewed journals", for the people charging you both.

That's a weird way to say "take a walk", but ok.

Exactly what I was thinking. If I saw this I would look for hinges before stepping up.

Das ist schade, dass die Erdmischung Dich im Stich lässt. Diese Seite hat alle Optionen, die ich kenne https://www.thespruce.com/how-i-finally-got-rid-of-fungus-gnats-8678354

Sie erklären den Lebenszyklus und die Funktionsweise von Steuerungsmethoden, aber sie versuchen, eine einzige Lösung zu finden. Ich würde empfehlen, ein paar Optionen zu wählen, die in Ihrem Setup zu funktionieren scheinen, und 2 bis 3 davon zu kombinieren

Verwenden Sie dafür einen Online-Übersetzer, also verzeihen Sie eventuelle Fehler. Dabei handelt es sich um eine Trauermücke. Es hört sich jedoch so an, als hätten Sie einen Plan dafür. Wir haben auch Kieselgur auf der Oberfläche des Bodens, Bodenbewässerung und klebrige Fallen verwendet, um sie etwas unter Kontrolle zu bringen.

Even worse, he is headed up. Why is he looking down?

Yumm sauce (lemmy.ml)
submitted 4 years ago* (last edited 4 years ago) by [email protected] to c/[email protected]
 

This is a copycat recipe from a restaurant. They serve it on top of rice, beans, olives, cilantro, and green onions. We put it on anything that needs a little something extra and change up the spices to match. It is supposed to be thick like a cheese sauce, but it tastes like its own thing. Anyways:

Materials

1/2 cup Canola Oil

1/2 cup Almonds toasted

1/2 cup Chickpeas cooked and drained

1/2 cup Water

1/2 cup Freshly squeezed Juice of 1 Lemon

1/3 cup Nutritional Yeast Flakes

2 cloves Garlic crushed

1/2 teaspoon Salt

1 teaspoon Curry Powder

1/4 cup Cilantro chopped

Instructions

Place oil, almonds, chickpeas and water into a food processor or blender. Process until smooth.

Add remaining ingredients. Process again until smooth.

Store, covered (not too tightly, at first, the yeast may need to expand), in the refrigerator, until ready to use.

The large flowered collomia (Collomia grandiflora) is just starting to bloom around me. They are annual and have cool blue pollen (typically pollen is yellow). You can see the pollen on the anthers at the center of each flower.

I am going to keep tossing these out into the ether unless I hear differently from the group. I have been doing flowers just because their showy, but if anyone has requests let me know (eg trees, sedges, garden plants). Also, I have been avoiding having pollinators in the photos on the assumption that any animal makes most people ignore plant. Any thoughts on that?

 

Does it make sense to ask: How hard does a photon hit an object?

Does the waviness of photons make that a dumb question? If it does then what is a more correct way of conceptualizing the interaction of a photon with, for example, a light receptor? Or does the analogy in my head of a ball hitting a wall fairly represent the behavior of a photon at the moment of impact?

This one is meadow-foam (Limnanthes douglasii). It's annual that is native to prairies of the west coast of North America. Smells great, looks cool, and bugs like it. Comercially, similar plants are grown for the oil from their seeds. The seeds off this one will just fall where they want to sprout up in spring of '22.

 

For me it is my phacelia (Phacelia tanacetifolia) blooming. I throw some seed down wherever I don't have other plans because the bugs love the flowers? What have you got going?
