Doh! I don't get it?

 :shock:

Try this stuff called "1600 X-clude" (Like $15 a 20 oz. can). It's a timed release pyrethrum. You may or may not find it at your local hydroponics shop. Got mine at our local Worm's Way. You may have to use it more than once. You spray the stuff in 5 sec. blasts. Good Stuff! Oh, and use those sticky cards as an indicator as to how bad your infestation is.

Brugmansia sauveolens var. "Yellow", Oct. 2005.

Hello,

  Brugs are heavy feeders. MiracleGro works fine. It's all I use. Brug's roots don't like to be confined all that much. If you can, I would suggest that you plant your brugs out in the summer and feed weekly. It may not look all that effective during the warm months (all the feedings), but as the season grows to a close you will be rewarded with showers of blooms.

I've found nothing that works effectively for whiteflies. For heavily invested brugs, a simple daily hosing with the jet nozzle (or similar) will usually convince the rat bastages to move along.

peace,

kj

Don't y'all like me any more?

Nice post WhiteShadowOfTheDampLands. I like the look. I wish you could go into more detail about the ceremony and explain some of the "verbage" you threw out there like everyone was suppose to know what you are talking about. Guess I'm just ignorant and don't like being that way.

Anyhoo, in the U.S., copyright law isn't really all that complicated. It would look that way by someone who reads more into it than is really there. Basically, any work of literature, art, recordings, blah blah that is originated in the U.S. is protected under the U.S. copyright law. That means that your original works, that have been dated, are protected from anyone who would try to steal your work and profit from it. It is considered good etiquette to always use references (and a class act!), however it is not required. Now if you were to try to sell this work, you would have to get the permission of the photographer/s and whatever other sources you used before you could sell it without fear of copyright infringement reprisals from those sources. The only exception to this (I'm no lawyer, but my sister is) is if you are using the sources for education and/or research. In which case, there is a tidbit about non-profit educational use, but nothing on "non-profit research" or even a definition of the terms "education" and/or "research". If, you are interested in the U.S. Copyright Law, there is a website at the U.S. Copyright Office that has the law in .pdf:

Complete PDF version of U.S. Copyright Law

{NOTE: this is a large document containing 290 pages!}

Also, if you are interested in the "Limitations on exclusive rights: Fair use" portion of the U.S. Copyright Law, that would be pg. 18, article 107.

I know, I know, you're saying man that thing is huge. However if, you do a google search (or, even msn now, I hear), you might get lucky and find a site like I did that was from a college's administration to its professors informing them of correct copyright usage. In other words......it was a long time ago and I don't have a clue about the link. But, I do remember the jixt of the thing. Hehe!

So, have fun. Keep up the good work. And, keep the spirit alive!

Well, if your brug is variegated, then it's a hybrid. And, you can feel safe to call it: Brugmansia variegated hybrid with yellow blooms. If ya'll feel like doing some trades, I have B. sauveolens peach and yellow, also some hybrids: betty marshall, dr. seuss and citronella. Oh, and a variegated white (I think, it's white) from greenstranger. They are all currently residing the garage (in sleep mode), so it will take some time for cuttings. But, if your a brug-head like me, time is the least of concerns.

Here is an image of either betty marshall or citronella. I'm thinking citronella:



This image is from 2002, so I'm not really sure which hybrid it is. I should really remember to change the image file names to something descriptive.
