Elk Damage, Cat House, Clones

2023-10-05

Despite stacking up bits of gates and pipes to deter the elk, once they had made it into the orchard they plowed through any obstacles to get back inside. They broke off a wooden corner post, damaged a metal gate that was blocking the fence opening, and came back out on the undamaged side which tore down the wire fence and posts there. The last pic is the repaired section with two widths of shorter fencing. That entire side needs to be replaced including the man gate they destroyed earlier. Since they now know they can jump over the six foot fence, I'm raising it up to about eight feet. I do already have some two foot wide field fence to place on top of the existing six foot fence (where it wasn't damaged by the elk). I don't have any ten foot 'T' posts, so final repairs will need to wait for those.
The winter cat box is mostly finished, other than a window in the top section. It was sized to just fit a seedling heat mat on the top landing. Between the heat mat and the insulation, it should stay pretty cozy.


The aqua house vents are mounted and the rest of the plywood walls have been, mostly, attached and sealed against the weather. Although the vents have insulation in them, the remainder of the end walls do not, so it won't stay as warm inside until I get that done.   The aeroponics plants are still hanging out. Those are the evergreen huckleberry plants on the left, a tea plant in the center, and some more native black raspberry plants on the right. The huckleberry is very slow to form roots. The tea seems quicker, but not fast. The raspberry, like most berry vines was much quicker when I set the first cuttings in here. Unfortunately, I left these cuttings in a bucket of water outside for a couple weeks before I managed to trim them and get them in the aero system. As cold as it was outside, they may have a hard time coming back.

... " just four companies — Bayer, Corteva (formerly DowDuPont), BASF and Syngenta/ChemChina — controlled 75 percent of plant breeding research, 60 percent of the commercial seed market, and 76 percent of global agrichemical sales in 2019."[78]



Just gotta' LOVE glyphosate, right?????

Yes, the second link is old news, but not forgotten and more importantly, as the first link shows, not remedied:

Just Say No To GMO by Michael Adams - Music
https://oregonTruffleTryst.com/_MEDIA/JustSayNoToGMO-192.mp3 Song Lyrics

Song by Mike Adams, with spoken lines from Jeffrey Smith

I’m lookin at the food that’s in the grocery store
They say it’s safe, everybody eat more.
On second thought, I don’t really know if it’s made with those GMOs

So I’m lookin for the non-GMO label ‘fore I bring it home and put it on my table
I wanna know it’s verified so I don’t
Harm myself with genetically modified

Uh-Oh
They don’t want you to know
All the poison they grow
The corporate profits they show from those GMO OH

Those Frankenseeds that they sow
They’re gonna hurt us we know
It’s time we told ‘em to go, say GMO NO!

I don’t want eat poison, I don’t want gene mutations at my dinner reservations
it’s a food abomination what they doin’ to this fast food nation
They take artificial gene combinations
inject them in seed variations
so they can grow their Frankenfood imitations
while the side effects cause medical patients

Keep their profits alive while they
spraying all the food with name brand herbicides
and all the while they’re spreadin’ their lies
Monsanto (Bayer now!) destroyin’ farmers lives
and the FDA keeps it all going
saying it’s safe even though they all know it’s just
poison stealing away your life, and that’s what you eat with genetically modified.

GMO safety huh that’s a corporate myth
if you don’t believe me listen to Jeffery Smith
He’s the man with plan gonna do what he can
To help us all get those GMOs banned
But we need you to lend a hand
take a stand against this food scam
It’s a mission for the health condition worldwide
We don’t wanna live genetically modified

Don’t eat food unless you know what’s in it
Don’t believe the propaganda cuz the press will spin it
Affects everybody, we all up in it
Stand up to Monsanto (Bayer now!), tell ‘em oh no you didn’t

Reject Frankenfoods in the store
demand honest labels so we can be informed
We have a natural right to know
What we buyin’ Just say no to GMO

Before our farms start dyin’
Just say no to GMO

Those corporate crooks are lyin’
Just say no to GMO

This time we’re not complyin’
Just say no to GMO

We’re just not buyin’ it
Just say no to GMO
