Creeping charlie is one of those easily identifiable plants like dandelions and

mustard that have been labeled " evil plants " and targeted by pesticide

companies. There is nothing dangerous about creeping charlie and dandelions are

quite beneficial to ladybugs, birds and ourselves as food. Creeping charlie and

dandelions are symptons of a nutritional imbalance in the soil. Find a 50# sack

of feed grade calcium carbonate at your local feed store or grain elevator.

Apply it at the rate of 200#/acre, it is not toxic so you don't have to be exact

about its application. Where you have creeping charlie take a potato fork, push

it into the ground as deep as possible and wiggle it a little, do this every

4-6 " to aeriate the soil. Then sprinkle about 1/4 cup 20 Mule Team borax per

square yard [borax also works for ants, sprinkle it on the hills].

Fix the soil, don't kill the weed! Easily one of the best answers ever given to

a common

question. A tip of the SMART HAT to JUNE!

We have farmers who just can't think outside the box, when they see a weed,

they start

hunting for a POISON to kill it! I'll be visiting a so-called organic or natural

farm and all those

fencerows are BROWN with dead, poisoned weeds. The dealers swear their ROUND-UP

is

totally safe, blah blah blah! It's NOT!

Over 10% of all the weed poisons in the world are put on YARDS in America! Now

GOLF

COURSES are one of the worst biohazards that exist, just short of walking

through Chernoble.

We made up some SKULL AND CROSSBONES signs that we replace the Chem Lawn signs

with

on our neighborhood walks. Below the Skull, the signs say: " Thanks for

poisoning our

children, our pets, our world! Why? I'm trying to find nicer signs that

might educate the

poisoners but I'm just plain mad when I see it.

We have a very pretty yard and no poisons (or even any power tools) have been

used on it for

over 25 years!! Plus, we get our exercise being out there working on it.
