Frequently Asked Questions

Can I Throw My Neighbors Pine Needles Back Into His Yard?
I Dont Have A Pine Tree For A Reason, Too Much Trash, All His Pine Needles End Up On My Side Of The Property, So Can I Throw Them Back Since The Pine Tree Is His And Not Mine?

So, you're THAT guy, eh?


How are you going to put the needles in his yard without raking them up first? It will take you just as long, if not longer, to put the needles in his yard than it would take you to just pick them up yourself.

How Much Pine Kindling Wood Can I Safely Burn In My Woodstove?
I Only Burn Hardwood Logs, But Would Like To Use Faster-Starting Pine Kindling To Get The Fire Going. Is There Any Danger Of Excessive Creosote Buildup In The Chimney By Using It?

pine kindling, pine cones, needles, etc., should not be a problem. as you burn hardwood logs, the heat and output takes care of most of the buildup. stay away from burning green wood, though.

Raising Young Ducklings?
Please Name Everything I Need For 2 Ducklings : I Have A Heat Lamp , What About Bedding,Food, And Food And Water Bowls And What Can I Use , How Much Will It Cost ????

PLZ, PLZ do MORE research on it.

1.) They do need a heat lamp intil 3 weeks of age, then they no longer need it.

2.) They need eather, old towels, puppy pads, or pine shavings to bed in. oe straw. If you want somthing to last longer and not too bad of smell use pine shavings.

3.) They are to eat starter feed until there 3wks old. then they can eat scratch corn. this is at tractor supply stores.

4.) Any bowl that is low to ground for a little while is fine. a sauser works too. anything that is heavy so they wont tip water and feed over is fine.

5.) This will cost some not too much. The feeds, a 50 lb bag costs 13 dollars , the bowls cost 8 for both most likly, and the bedding cost 6 so less than 30 dollars.

Pine Syrup - Anyone Know How To Make It?
I Heard There Is Something Called Pine Syrup That Is Somehow Made From The Pine Tree. Sounds Interesting Since I Like Trying Interesting Foods. I Also Heard It Has Something To Do With The Pine Cone. Beyond This, I Can'T Find Any More Info On It Much Less Anything On How To Make It. Does Anyone Have Any Idea How To Make This Stuff. Thanks In Advance.

Here's a link: http://www.justmydelicious.com/2011/05/s...

It's in Polish, but Google translate did a pretty good job on it. From what I can tell you're supposed to use the light green bud growth that pine trees get in the spring, rather than just whatever needles you can get.

I also saw a couple that was just pine needles, steeped in boiling water like tea, with sugar (which is basically what that Polish one was).

Derp, here's one from the Food Network: http://www.foodnetwork.com/how-to/how-to...

How Do You Make A Garden?
I Love Fruits And Vegetables.

Hi:
Sounds like you are very interested in a vegetable and fruit garden. You have a couple of options to doing a garden.

If you have the space you can plant in the ground. The most important aspect of doing any type of garden is preparing the soil properly, so you can have healthy plants.

If you don't have the space, a container garden is the answer.

Another option depending on your geographic location is planting a couple of small fruit trees.

The process of preparing a garden starts with defining a bed area. Decide how big you want the bed and take a garden hose and design a shape such as a rectangle or square. Use a tiller if the space is large enough and work the soil. If you are doing a small area, take a shovel and turn the soil over. The more you prepare the soil the better off your plants have for survival. Rake and level out the ground. Use mushroom compost. This is a one year organic fertilizer any vegetable or fruit loves it. Dig your holes, but make sure you place the plants far enough apart. It is good to mix the mushroom compost up with the soil. Vegetables can also take a 10-10-10 fertilizer. Put just a little bit in the hole with each plant. A good recommendation is putting mulch or pine straw down to retain the moisture. This is a quick description of doing a simple garden. Check out my website and I have details on palnning, prepping and planting gardens. Also you can read about container gardens, water techniques, and the correct placement of plants in a garden. I hope this helped some and if you need any extra adivce, please feel free to contact me. Good luck to you and happy eating!
