Hi All,
My corn experiment kind of went bust. I think my
soil is too poor. I will try amending my soil more
next year.
In the mean time, what do I do with the old stalks?
Toss them in the trash? Plow them under? Shake
fist at and accuse parents of not being married?
Many thanks,

Compost pile. Maybe break them up a bit first.

Give them to your Jewish friends for a holyday coming up where people
"live" outside in temporary huts open to the sky but covered with
maybe cornstalks.

Open, but covered huts, I'll buy(?), but cornstalks in a Jewish
ritual?(!!!) There's gotta be a story.
I have been to meals at a Jewish college where they observed all the
religious festivals. At one time the dining hall was festooned with plants
and produce (sheaves of wheat etc) as part of their harvest festival which
is held about this time of year. One aspect of this (I have since learned)
is making booths, or if you like huts.

The thing is that Europeans, much less Jews, knew squat from corn until
at least 1492. Corn has become part of Jewish rituals during the last
600 years? There's got to be a story. Hellllloooooo.

Both the House and Senate budget plan would have cut Social Security and Medicare, while cutting taxes on the wealthy.
Kucinich noted that none of the government programs targeted for
elimination or severe cutback in House Republican spending plans
"appeared on the GAO's list of government programs at high risk of
waste, fraud and abuse."

[W]e have the situation with the deficit and the debt and spending and jobs. And itıs not that difficult to get out of it. The first thing you do is you get rid of corporate welfare. Thatıs hundreds of billions of dollars a year. The second is you tax corporations so that they donıt get away with no taxation.
