We use a motorcycle battery and a 20 watt solar panel for our automatic door. Keeps it charged year-round. We DO have to change the angle of the panel for the seasons.

I designed my own chicken coop. And my friend built it. It’s pretty good, but definitely. I would do a few things differently if I had to do it again. Some things you just don’t realize until you live with it for a while. I don’t plan on building a new coop any day soon, but if I ever do, that’s what I will make some changes.

You showed tbe part that could have easily been explained and explained the part that really should have been shown. How you process it after it sits for several months is what people need to be shown.

If you have a broody hen it is important that the flock see her every day (during incubation and especially when the chicks arrive). If she is out of sight from the flock for several days/weeks the chicks will NOT be accepted as flock members and you will have to go through a messy integration period which isn't good (and can cause serious or even fatal health problems if the chicks get too stressed from bullying). If the mother is an active flock member the chicks are too and they can usually start mixing with the big birds at a few days old.

Let the lemon & vinegar sit 4 a little while? How Ling is a little while? I also just read that if your pet has fleas, you can make a lemon bath & or a lemon mist to spray on your dog for fleas, the fleas Haye the smell.

Can u add honey raw to kefir not to ferment but add for sweetness to drink i vought probiotics that has 11 types but i read kefir has 12 n per cup is trillion to 2 trillion i just wanna add stevia or raw honey but does fat free milk work
@Olya.Konell 6 ай бұрын
Yup! So for my husband, I actually add agave because it’s easier to mix in with frozen berries and sprinkle with some nuts or some kind of granola and he loves eating it as a snack for work You could certainly use honey or some other sweetener. You can make a berry syrup with Stevia or something in a jar, and then add that to your lefir for flavor, and sweetness. It’s also great in smoothies, lots of different ways of consuming it.:)

So the roots house the bacteria, but the nitrogen is definitely in the leaves. The plant uses the nitrogen as its made, it is not stored in the roots. The nitrogen is technically a byproduct (the poop of bacteria) and will eventually kill the bacteria if left there, in the same way alcohol will kill the yeast that made it eventually despite being a byproduct of the yeast. Only the bacteria is housed in nodes in the roots. This is also why using nitrogen fertilizer will kill of the good nitrogen fixing (pooping) bacteria.

You don't have use whole potatoes. ... cut where eyes are that's what makes potatoes
@Olya.Konell 7 ай бұрын
You are correct!:) i use whole because I get more potatoes per square foot in a raised bed. Since I don’t have standard walkways in between the plants, like if I was planting in the ground there’s usually a walkway between rows.. well since I don’t do that, Ive experimented and I get more plants from one seed potato that take over a larger area. The downside is if the soil is not fertile enough, you get a a lot of potato’s but they are smaller in size, mine is very rich so I get big ones and many of them. (Hope that makes sense) I’m limited on space so I want to encourage more shoots to come out of one seed potato . Alternative is to cut them and plant them 6-8 inches apart getting more in an area. Both worked the same for me so I’m just saving myself the trouble of the extra step.

I would switch your 2x4 perches to the 4inch side up. They'll like it better and it keeps their feet warmer in the winter. I wouldn't place nesting boxes on the floor to help keep eggs cleaner. You should have kept the floor in the shed and just installed linoleum or Vinyl flooring. They like the top of the nesting box you have there bc their roost is uncomfortable. I also wouldn't keep that hay in there regardless if they don't poop on it or not. There is a lot of humidity and poop particles in there and it won't keep as well if it weren't surrounded by all that humidity, ammonia and poo. It can also attract rats to nest in there bc they eat the chicken feed.. and the hay makes great nesting.
