I just read your earlier post about growing them indoors - I'm amazed. And your greens are equally beautiful. I have more problems with snails than slugs and sluggo is very effective at reducing their numbers. The other alternative is to toss the snails out on the pavement to smash them, it makes a gruesomely satisfying sound.Michellehttp://fromseedtotable.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4778141609680363377.post-13863922929092413042009-11-16T09:21:07.708-05:002009-11-16T09:21:07.708-05:00hi Thomas, my family has always hunted so yes, I h...hi Thomas, my family has always hunted so yes, I have dressed a deer and have seen it done many times.

I keep telling myself I'll try it but never do. Maybe next year I'll try that and bran and see which works better for me.Daphne Gouldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17305049560953735881noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4778141609680363377.post-3076636081107843242009-11-16T00:01:03.866-05:002009-11-16T00:01:03.866-05:00The lemons are picture perfect.

I'm been really neglecting the garden lately though. Sometimes I look at it and think, there's still so much left to do before next year. I have to remind myself that garden is as much about the process as it is about the end result.Thomashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09303344546714641616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4778141609680363377.post-5769900229099583112009-11-15T22:54:12.954-05:002009-11-15T22:54:12.954-05:00Wow, those lemons are just gorgeous !
