Yes it has been a good year for local zaboca. Would have thought the buyers would have eased up on their imports and made use of our surplus.

Prowl worked for me. Bissessar's in Sando told me the soil needs to be damp when applying. Try them for the Ronstar.

Anyone know where I can get that like ASAP?

[maj. tom]

never see that in a hardware, 1/2 inch X 4 foot sounds like a custom job? Call wire mesh manufacturers. Varma or Trinrico maybe.

Nah is not a custom made thing, each of the squares are half inch by half inch, and the entire width is 4 feet.
Called varma, trinrico, chan's, SWS and a lot of others.
Only place that claim to have it is bhagwansingh trincity, but I NOT paying nobody retail price per foot for a whole roll of mesh.

[Rovin]

they don't, they sell by the foot, & at $15/foot for a 100' roll, that's $1500 as opposed to SWS selling the same thing when they have in stock for about $480/roll,

I eh feeling to jus take being robbed these days

Planning to do the same here. I have some growing by me wild, I could organize a few roots for you. I'm in Maracas St Joseph, msg if you want them.

Yes, a few farmers grow ginger large scale locally. I know a few people that do it, and they don't grow nuttn else but that. But there's one major issue with local ginger, that being that most of what hits the retail market is is imported, not from up the islands, but from China. That and garlic, China exporting those two things cheaper than dirt, so to get locally grown ginger sold does be stiff at times unless you time the market right.

Ginger holding price is only at the retailers, if you only know what they pay for the imported stock by the 100 lb., even in times of market shortages, yuh would bawl to realize the profits on it at the retail end.

Yeah I find it hard to pay them prices for ginger
But du no if worthwhile to grow with limited space

[X_Factor]

i planted 40 holes of ginger each hole has two plants....will see how it goes next year

Trust me, it's worth it.
Even if it's a 10×20 patch and all you grow is for personal consumption, gotta remember, it's a low maintenance crop so the cost from cutting to reaping is relatively low, and is just one more thing you won't have to find money to buy, plus you have the satisfaction of knowing that you produced it yourself.

The one tree i studying to get is a bay leaf. I does use it a lot, not only for cooking meat, but I just studying if that justifies a whole tree. Feel I go put one down for Christmas. A bay leaf tree adds a sweet aroma to a property when a breeze hit it just right.

Even planting one or two is better than nothing.
