Hey AgrBizz Pals and Grower Friends...
We are All Heart-Broken and Grieving the Assassination of a Great-Bold Christian Witness...Charlie Kirk.. 31 Yr.Old Christian Activist...Wonderful Husband and Father ...a Dearly BeLoved of the Christian Community...Murdered in Utah at a College Youth Gathering. The Assassin appears to be in Custody.... ๐ฉ๐บ๐ธ๐๐โ๏ธโ๏ธโ๏ธ๐๐๐บ๐ธ๐ฉ..
The 10-Day Forecasters at WunderGroundWeather are Thinkn Lots of Sun...Mediocre Chance of a Splash of Rain Tomorrow Morning..Not Much... The High Temps Expected for the Next 12 Days All Mid-70ยฐF's to Mid-80ยฐF's....Early AM Lows all around 59*F. No Serious Winds... DayTime Humidities kinda High...DewPoints kinda Low...... Absolutely For Sure Yes... In our Post-Harvest Tanks for All Tree-Fruits..and Lotsa BerryCrops.. I'm doin *Zinc.. *Boron.. *ReDox Triplex Micro.. *VitaZyme*1 Pt.. *CS2005*1 Pt...*SaniDate 5.0 at 25-30 oz.Ac... And...We Always Take a few Minutes and carefully scrutinize the Inventory in the Spray Shed... You'll want to Do this when planning 'Post-Harvest-Tanks'... Look for the Partial Containers of all the Reeeeaaaaally Cheap NukeRoid stuff. Find your CS2005.. Find Partials of Fungicides..and Nutritions....And Apple Guys...Sevin XLR...or Carbaryl4L...Ain't Cheap...If I Have a Part-Jug..??..I might dump it in my 'Post' Tank. But I'm keeping the Jugs that are still sealed up in the Dry-Non-Freezing-Over-Wintering Room.
Ya can't really 'Legally' OverDo SevinXLR...The Label says we can use a Rate of 1-3 qts/Ac...Up to 8 Applns..Also says 15 Qts.Max-per-Season.. That's almost 4 Ga.. That would be approx $275-Ac..Soooo..Nobody is doing that ...
That Sevin/Carbaryl comes in Reeeaaaaally Handy between Petal-Fall & '1st Cover'...Sometimes we seriously 'Gotta Have It'...When/If We cannot see any Fruitlets getting loose after a cupla Thinning Applns... ....Thinning Apples...
I always remember what my Brother Bob always said..."The Goal is to get into the 'Cycle' that requires us to seriously Thin every Mid-May...We need to always make sure we are not Over-Cropped..If you end up with a crazy huge Over-Cropped' situation..You're assuredly gonna have all Juice Apples..and the following Spring you'll have Zero Fruit-Set"... ๐คจ๐ค๐ฅบ..So...When you consider that scenario..Both of those years, you're certainly gonna lose serious money. ....You doin ReDox..??.. Did you try doing ReDox a few years ago and encountered some 'Mixing-Issues'..??.. I did hear about some of that ...but..now ReDox has almost all of their Key-Products in Liquid-Form...in 2.5 Ga.Jugs..No Xtra Cost..Veerrrry Wonderful.
ReDox has 35-40 Bio-Nutritional Products... They have covered all the Bases...
There are 2 or 3 of these that the ReDox Strategists use in 'Post Apps' on Tree Fruits and Berry Crops.
These ReDox Products employ a Complex of Carbons.. Humics.. L-Aminos.. All ReActed Plant Nutrient Components ..derived from their Proprietary Fermentation Process. Nobody else has Nutrient-Products formulated this way.
Our PNW Friend 'G.S.Long Co.' has done piles of really impressive Trials... Side-X-Side Trials with numerous other Nutrient "Programs"... ReDox always emphatically wins in these Trials...Impressively as several of the other 'Programs' cost A lot more per acre-season than the ReDox Strategy.
A lot of PNW & Great Lakes & Northeast Pals have 'Stopped-the-Bleeding'...Not doing any of the 'Dry-Granular-NPK+Micros-Bulk-Blended-Fertilizers' any longer. Those Cost Huuuuuuuuge Money and do Sooooo Very Little Good..and in many cases actually do soil harm.
All Property Owners are likely interested in signing the Petition "AxMITax"... Check Out 'AxMiTax.Org'...Petition to Stop All Property Taxes in Michigan. If you are a Registered MI.Voter..Please Sign. If you signed once already in the last several Weeks, please do not sign again..as it might Void the entire Page of signatures when the duplication is detected. These Petitions only circulate til the End of September..and if we have enuf Signatures, it should be on the Mid-Term Election Day, November 2026.
In 2023, there were 183,000 Michigan Property Owners facing tax foreclosure. The Deep State has made us all Perpetual Renters of our own Property. They have been outrageously holding our own Property Ransom on an Annual basis. Michigan is one of the worst.
In Florida, the 'State' does not collect any Property Taxes...but instead... it does have Laws that the Local *County *Township and *School Districts must adhere to ...to stop UnFair Taxes.....I am seriously saddened about how many Folks are not aware of who Charlie Kirk was... He was a Deeply Devout Christian..a great Husband and Father.. He was arguably the Best Debater Ever in History... Always Veeerrrry Successfully Debating Socialist-Leftists... A very strong Believer.. strong Constitutionalist...Very Patriotic... Charlie was 31 yrs. Old...Assassinated..Dead...his Soul Now in Heaven's Bliss. We Fervently Pray for his Wife Erica and their Beautiful Children..and for Charlie's Legacy... Our Awesome God has a Righteous, Compassionate, Loving, and very Supremely Divine Intelligent Plan... Bringing Charlie Home is Part of His Plan...
Wishing You All a Safe and Blessed Weekend.... In His Peace.....
Locked & Loaded...
