  • I want to live on a farm but...?

    Other - Home & Garden - 6 hours ago

    Additional Details

    My great-grandma use to live on a farm with all of her children. When all of her kids moved out and her husband died, she felt that she needed some company so now she lives with her son, daughter-in-law, and their kids. My Pappy didn't want to see the farm go, so he kept taking care of it and the animals even though nobody was there. I loved that farm SO much! But when I was 6, my pappy died, and they decided to sell all of the animals because there would be no one to take care of them. I offered to take care of them but how could a 6 yr old take care of cows, pigs, chickens, alot of dogs, etc. I was so crushed, I couldn't stop crying. Now my mom and I are looking to move somewhere and she wants to live in a huge neighborhood in a little house. She is going to make her final deal on Monday to get the house built, but I really want to convince her that we should move to the farm and rebuild my great-grandma's old house. I'm almost 14 yrs old now, so I told her I would take care of all the yardwork (mowing) and I would take care of animals (if we got some). Does this sound like a good idea? Do I not know what I'm getting into? Advice will help thanks, and sorry this is so long :) I know that it's alot of work, but I was also thinking that alot of land would be nice when I have friends over, because in a little house, we would have not very much of a yard.

    Garden & Landscape - 13 hours ago

    Additional Details

    I saw a blog sites with pictures that features many hostas planted in the man made streams. I put mine in a taller pot so that kois will not reach it in the middle of the pond. It is planted in soil with compost and small gravel on the rim to prevent soil/compost from surfacing. Will this hostas perform well in the water and what are the benefits it can give to the pond like the irises which balance nitrates. Thanks for any answer.
