Re: is hort down?

Recent. My son sent me a copy that I now can't seem to find. Crawford's a New Mexico garlic farmer; the book's a collection, mostly chronologic, of essays about garlic, garlic farming, garlic marketing, family farms, and so on. Slim paperback; don't know if it's made the used book lists yet.

Hi Jim, Can't say that I have.  Would that be old or new?

Ever read Stanley Crawford's "A Garlic Testament"?

Hi Ceres,

Sure do, but they don't seem to be as bad as last year, hopoe I didn't
jinx
that. Planted my garlic today, went through the whole ritual, soaked
the
cloves in baking soda water, and then in an alcohol dip prior to
planting,
even fertilized the planting bed. I'm just so proud,LOL. Talk to you
later, Rich

Rich, do you have the Asian lady beetles that move in after the beans
have
been harvested? Ugh, they are terrible. They bite, smell & leave a
stain

if
smashed.   I understand, after talking with a grape grower/wine maker
they
are
a real problem for them.   If I is collected with the grapes they
have a

chg

of wine taste.   The grower said both he & his son, who are in
business
together, ate a beetle to know what they taste like.   He said they
taste
just like
they smell :-( Yuch
     Ceres
