I think its just whatever is in season!<BR/><BR/>Hi Maggie,<BR/>Its a fair question and I'm not offended. I'm also sure you're not the only one wondering. Rather than answer it here, I'll answer it in today's post so more people have the opportunity to read my thoughts on it. <BR/><BR/>Ruthie,<BR/>You're right, although I don't find that people always respond to that information. Honestly it wasn't what I responded to at first either.

Does that make sense? I'm sorry... I know you didn't ask me... but I thought I'd put in my $0.02Ruthiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15385890645302358783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9602464.post-1150899195772101242006-06-21T10:13:00.000-04:002006-06-21T10:13:00.000-04:00I was reading your wormcomposting blog & it's comm...I was reading your wormcomposting blog & it's comments, and I was wondering if I can ask a question? I really don't want to be insulting, so please don't be offended. Why do vegans not eat animal products? I don't mean the meat, I mean eggs, milk,etc..I am not being critical,I'm just curious. If you'd rather not discuss this, that's cool, I just don't know anyone I can ask.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9602464.post-1150897884737411682006-06-21T09:51:00.000-04:002006-06-21T09:51:00.000-04:00I'm a raspberry fan and can't recall ever seeing t...I'm a raspberry fan and can't recall ever seeing this tip before. Maybe it would work, but there are two types of raspberries. One I can't remember how it spreads, but the other I know for sure spreads when canes touch the ground and sprout. That kind would of course not be caught within the container's edges. I have a wonderful book at home, The Backyard Berry Book. I'd rec'd it to you with your currants as well. It covers from choosing to planting to harvesting to fighting pests for all sorts of berries and brambles (plus rhubarb and strawberries).<BR/><BR/>Of course, I think the larger the raspberry patch the better, anyway, as I don't think you can find a better fruit in the world!!!!!!!!AnnMariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05505967972774910106noreply@blogger.com
