Leaf Season has Officially Begun

[Jim Sullivan]

Well it's that time of year once again. It officially started Sunday morning when I hooked up the leaf vac.

Falling around here also.

Seems earlier this year. But I probably always think that.

The heck with it, they'll eventually rot.

 

[La Hot Rods]

I think the same way.
What did mother nature with them before we showed up

With all the rain we’ve been having down here in plant city I’ve noticed throughout the entire summer the oak trees have been shedding leaves…The ecosystem seems very confused

So far, we've been lucky. A few leaves came down, but my problem, is the weeds.They keep growing. Can't barely see, to get out of the driveway. Bought a hedge trimmer, to help. Works pretty good. Gotta be careful. The electric cord, is drawn to the blades. Another month or so, the colder weather will kill them.

I just run over them with a mower tractor with grass catcher on back . Makes short work, trouble is I don't have a single tree anymore. It's all the neighbors to the south that I get . I am on a corner lot .

The weeds are all tangled in the fence.

Not many trees in your neck of the wood.

If you guys would just be a little patient, the snow will soon cover all this up. Logic!

I'd bet if you would swap out the plywood trailer cover for fiberglass and the duck tape on the hose for racer's tape it would be worth a couple of tenths. Just saying....

No shortage. I had two one in front of house and one on side ,they both died. I planted two along side of house they died. I had nursery plant them again they died. I give up on trees.

What do you do with all the leaves once you've collected all of them?

If he had a all metal trailer he could install a flame thrower in there and burn as he picks them up. Wouldn't that work????

Aren't you suppose to be planting wheat?

City neighbors might think I'm crazy!!!

I don't think trees are legal in Kansas.

Push them up on a big mulch pile. I'm going to start mixing the rabbit and sheep c rap in the leaves. The decayed leaves by themself won't grow a thing.
