How To Stop Turf Wars?
For the past 2 years the Lawn Gnomes and Pink Flamingos in our hood have been at war. They have attacked each other with weed whackers and gardening claws, even resorting to massacring entire clans with a Black & Decker self propelled mower.
Last week we brought in a Granny With Bloomers to act as a mediator however she was attacked last night by a herd of polyresin deer and may not recover. How can we stop the carnage?!?
GardenersCardiff answers:
It sounds to me as if you should call your state Gnovernor, who will instruct the Attorney Gneneral to send in some Gnendarmes.

Ken asks…
Does growing and hunting your own food really save money on your grocery bill?
GardenersCardiff answers:
Growing food absolutely saves money if you know how to do it. It usually takes a couple growing seasons to get to that point, but once you master the skill it is very well worth it. You have to invest a lot of time, and if you calculated how much you got paid for that time it would be a low wage. But gardeners love working in the garden. At the height of the growing season in July, I pull twenty five pounds of vegetables a week out of my garden. The only investments are tools, free horse manure, and $30 worth of seeds. But I’m out there twenty hours a week, nine months a year, rain or shine.
A hunter can get 50 pounds of meat with a $25 yearly license and a $150 gun that will last more than a lifetime. That pays for the gear the first year. It is a huge part of the way many rural families get by. It is also a way for rich people to go on expensive vacations with fancy gear.
Paul asks…
Are you able to grow your own food and clothe yourself or do you need money to buy it from the store.?
How much do you think your myspace page and texting skills will be worth when this thing collapses on us.
GardenersCardiff answers:
Unless one has a farm there is no way possible to grow everything they eat. Nor spin wool to clothe themselves. We need JOBS. For too long companies have been given tax breaks for moving OUR jobs overseas. I agree 100% with Obama that this must end. Give the companies who stay here the breaks not those who outsource.
Helen asks…
Should the need arise do you know how to grow your own food,find water,protect what’s yours&live off the land?
Are you entirely dependent on the comforts that we all take for granted?
Do you know how to survive without electricity, tv, playstation, SUVs and refrigeration?
GardenersCardiff answers:
No, they do not. We were without electricity for 4 days this summer and my children and grandchildren thought the end of the world had come. We used a kerosene lamp and candles for light at night. I missed the refrigerator the most I guess. The kids were bored, nothing to do. It reminded me of my grandmother. She had a wood cook stove, no refrigeration, no indoor bathroom and I loved spending summers with her. I have gotten more used to the comforts we have now and would not like to go without them but I know I can if I have to.

Susan asks…
Whats the best information to put on a blog?
Out Garden Centre has a blog http://www.gordonrigg-gardencentres.co.uk/blog/ which we started in the last month or so.
Love to know the sort of information that people have found useful for driving traffic to their blogs?
Should we use it to get lots of keywords into Google?
GardenersCardiff answers:
Having well-written, compelling content that is updated frequently is what drives traffic to your blog.
Search engine keywords really won’t have much effect, and often the handful of extra hits you get are not people who are interested in your subject anyway.
William asks…
Have you found any bones in your garden?
I dug out some old soil out of a container a few years ago and found a tiny skull. Living in the city, I assumed it was a rat skull. But, I love what this guy found in his garden while picking raspberries – http://abcnews.go.com/blogs/technology/2012/06/iowa-family-finds-mammoth-bones-in-backyard/ A mammoth bone! Have you found bones in your garden? Which kind?
GardenersCardiff answers:
When we moved into out house, wefound a whole cat in the garden, whilst flattening it out. We spoke to the neighbour about it, as we couldn’t make much sense from it, and the family who lived there before had had a daughter who had a cat, and they’d buried it when it died a couple of years before. It was slightly creepy, but in a sweet way:-)

Is growing your own tobacco and expirment with mixes of tobacco and flavorings?
Is it worth trying or are the majority of them going to suck
GardenersCardiff answers:
‘Suck and if its weed you could be fined
Jenny asks…
is it legal to grow your own tobacco in indiana?
i was wanting to know if it was legal to grow your own tobacco in indiana?
GardenersCardiff answers:
I think it’s OK, but you can call your local prosecutor’s office just to be sure. However, I don’t think tobacco will grow in Indiana.
Donald asks…
Would making and smoking your own tobacco/cigarettes be better?
Now obviously no smoking at all would be better for you, but for those who already smoke; would it be best if they grew their own tobacco with less chemicals infused in the cigarettes that companies sell?
Oh, and save so much money in the process?
GardenersCardiff answers:
It is cheaper.
As well as this it contains less chemicals.
Cigarettes you buy have 100’s of added chemicals…… Http://wiki.answers.com/Q/What_chemicals_are_in_cigarettes
If you made your own or even brought packets of tobacco there are less chemicals as it is pure tobacco and both are cheaper 
I don’t smoke, but I promise this is true
I hope that helped!
