And they have it in cans too!

Its called tillering, and it usually happens when the plant is thriving or the main stalk has been injured early in the season. Not a big deal. You can pull them off it you want, but usually they take care of themselves.

Thank you. It was such a beautiful fish I had to know what it was.

I found this in the Olentangy River in Columbus Ohio. He was already dead when I found him. It looks like some sort of darter to me but I'm no expert.

I will second the point made above. When you plant English Ivy, you plant it for life. You can spend days pulling all of it up only to have it regrow again and again.

I would suggest something a little tamer like an Ajuga cultivar or Vinca minor. While these plants will spread quickly like English Ivy, they are way less tenacious and easier to remove. Plus they have nice flowers (especially Ajuga).

For all of these plants, epecially English Ivy, you don't really need to buy 70 or 80 of them because they spread fairly rapidly. The first year you might not have full coverage, but by the end of the second year they should start to cover the entire space.

Personally I would dig up the hostas and daffodills, then spray a ton of roundup or 2,4D. Wait for the weeds to die, then rototill everything. Wait another week and tons more weeds will come up and you can spray again.

This will get rid of the weeds that were already there plus knock out a decent chunk of the weed seeds in the soil because the tilling encourages dormant and buried seeds to germinate. Hopefully killing some of those dormant seeds will make it a little easier to control this season.

If you don't have access to a rototiller you can always flip the soil with a shovel instead but its a lot more work.

I've always thought its pretty cool how the landscape goes from absolutely flat to hilly at a distinct point. Its really evident on US33 by Lancaster and US23 at Chillicothe. Its like you can see exactly where the glaciers stopped advancing.

They should both work, but keep in mind that triclopyr stays in the soil for like 6 months, so if you plan on planting something later you may want to stick with the glyphosate/low concentration triclopyr.

Do you have your own sprayer? Its usually cheaper to just buy a sprayer and use concentrate rather than buying the premixed bottles with a little spray gun on them.

Also, you can get 2,4D/dicambra formulations on the cheap but they require multiple applications to take care of poison ivy.

Check out Stirling Properties. I'm renting from them this year and its a huge improvement from Buckeye Real Estate. Its run by an older couple and their daughter and son-in-law. Good pricing and fast maintenance and I love my place since it has a garage and overlooks Iuka Park. I think they may still have a couple places for fall as well.

Clover is great, I personally prefer it to grass. Broadleaf plantain on the other hand...

Unfortunately, there are a lot of low-head dams on both rivers, particularly on the Olentangy. Basically from 161 down to the confluence on the Tangy there are lowheads every couple miles, enough to make kayaking kinda difficult due to poor or non-existent portages.

The Scioto is a little better, you can put in just below the O'Shaugnessy dam and make it all the way down to Griggs Resevoir without a low head, but once you start getting near Griggs the current starts to disappear. You can also put in below Griggs and make it down to around Grandview Ave. but I've never tried this and you would need to find a decent place to take out around there.

Personally, I try to stick mainly to the outlying streams like the Darby or Kokosing. Both are smaller than the Scioto and Olentangy but are much more 'wild'. The only issue is in the heat of summer they often get too shallow to have a good time.

The Darby is best if you're trying to stay close to Columbus and has lots of options for different legnth outings.

Shortest: 1.5-2 hours Put in at Osprey Lake by Trapper Johns (rt 665 and Harrisburg-Georgesville Rd) and take out at rt 62 bridge. Can get crowded by folks from the Livery on nice days.
Medium: Put in at Confluence of Big and Little Darby (Alkire rd) and take out at rt 665 Bridge west of Darbydale. 2.5-3.5 hours
Long: Around 4.5 hours. Put in at Prairie Oaks Launch on Amity rd south of Scioto-Darby Rd. Take Out at Confluence of Little and Big Darby. One low-head dam at RobRoy acres. Good Portage but you may want to call and ask permission to portage.
Really Long: Put in at Old Rest Stop at junction of 736 and rt 42 north of Plain City. Take out at Prairie Oaks Launch. I should mention that the one time I tried this I only made it 1/3 of the way due to some kayak damage from hitting an old truck rim underwater. Easily 6+ hours unless there is really high flow.

Shouldn't you be in r/columbia? Or does it not stand up to the glory that is r/columbus?

I can't recommend Imports Plus Automotive enough. The owner, Brad, has been a family friend for 15 years or so. Brad has been helping me out since I got my first car, even before he started Imports Plus. He's a great guy who really knows his stuff and runs an honest operation that doesn't try to up-sell or overcharge you. Check out the Google or Yelp reviews for some more info, I promise you won't be disappointed.

The shop is at 1065 Ridge St, which is just off of Dublin rd by Grandview Ave and 670.

I would just point out that the reason potatoes arent marketed as hybrid varities mostly because they are notoriously difficukt to propagate by seed and don't outcross well at well. This makes it difficult and expensive to produce hybrid potatoes.

Exactly one of the greatest benefits of GMOs is to maintain present yield levels in high pathogen environments with less money spent on pesticides.

Tikchbila · 1 month

Do you have a source for GM traits moving through viral vectors? Im genuinely curious, I've never heard of that happening.

Tikchbila · 1 month

The seed not breeding true is the result of hybridization rather than GM for corn anyway. What are you growing where you have to avoid gm seed for this reason? The only other major gmo's out there are cotton, soy, canola (which doesn't breed true either).

Its pretty difficult to get your soil up to 95 degrees because of the water in the soil. That being said, 95 is higher than you want for pepper seeds. In my school's seed lab we actually use 95 F and very high humidity to accelerate seed aging to measure the vigor of the seeds. At that temperature the seeds may still germinate, but any fungal pathogens in the soil will devastate the seedlings.
