Hawaiian Volcanoes are not part of the Ring of Fire

Updated 6/14/2018 2:27pm HST, originally published 6/9/2018 I intended the next post to be about searching for a home on Oahu.  But the media is obsessed with Kilauea.  Ignore the news media.  Except they keep making us sound like we are all going to die... Folks on Hawaii Island are having a hard time.  If you haven't heard, Kilauea on Hawaii continues to erupt, the most recent eruption actually began in 1983, the location of the fissures and the flow are somewhat new.  One fissure is fountaining lava, which produces Pele's hair (lovely wafting glass filaments that are murder on human tissue) and gases, and lava.  Once the lava flow hits the ocean it produces  laze , which is very dangerous to anyone in the immediate vicinity.  Therefore  Hawaii County Civil Defense  is keeping everyone out of the immediate vicinity. But Kilauea is not Mt. St. Helens, people.  Mt. St. Helens is part of the Ring of Fire, with a different amount of silica in it's magma/lava, leading to

6 years on 0.6 acres

6 Years on 0.6 acres In Maryland I progressed through the history of gardening ideas from the Victory gardens of my grandparents, in something of a revival today with several twists, through organic, to polyculture, and intensive rotational companion planted urban farming on an acre.  Arriving at permaculture (growing perennial and woody plants for food to reduce resource requirements and soil disturbance) and the related edible landscaping (intermixing edibles throughout the entire landscape) by way of xeriscaping (focusing on native or ecologically appropriate plants to reduce water, pesticide and fertilizer applications).  Finally arriving at regenerative agriculture and the idea of improving or creating a soil ecology that supports the plants with such diversity and biological activity there is not room for disease or pests.  This had spawned the need for garden planning software that incorporated basic facts about fruits, vegetables, and other plants; the ability to map out th

Tropical Gardening: Starting from Seed

Originally Published August 10, 2020.  Updated September 23, 2020. Mililani Town Center has a Walmart and a City Mill, the local hardware chain.  There is a Home Depot on my way to work.  These 3 shops are where I get most of my gardening supplies including seeds.  You will find the usual racks of Burpee seeds, some Ferry Morse (a Massachusettes-based company that I had only seen on the Eat Coast offered in catalogs and never tried), and a local company: Aina Ola Seed.  Given how completely different Hawaii is from the other States in the Union, I tend to prefer the locally grown seeds.  I just don't see something produced in Massachusettes doing well 6 USDA zones south of its origins. Aina Ola Seed is apparently only available in stores, the company is based on Hawaii Island.  I could not find a website for them, so I have no idea what their complete catalog is.  I have successfully started their artichokes and papaya.  And I recently started some Toscano Kale, Brocolli, Chinese P
