You win! Definitely that didn't happen to me - it was bad enough getting in trouble after you had done whatever. And I was a great kid.

I can see you now walking home with chicken poop down your back. :-)
(been around a few chickens myself).

Just took this photo of Zora. She's on the cooling mat along with my glasses. Once I take them off I don't know they are.

Went out and checked my succulents again three times today. I'm trying to figure the best way to find out if the tree is getting what it needs. Right not I've got one of those water meters but it only goes down about 6". I guess when it says that things are dry I can root water the maple. Now I'll have to put the food in the root feeder too. We'll have to see how succulents like protek. I'll try it on a few of them first. It's supposed to help cell walls not dissolve so that the tree doesn't get leaf burn. Maybe I'll try it on one that is getting leaf burn and see what happens.
