Now that fall is here, when should you stop mowing?

Published Tue, 18 Feb 2025 23:38:51 GMT

RIVERTON, Kan. (KSNF/KODE) — A good-looking, well-manicured lawn is what most homeowners strive for during the spring and summer months. But once the leaves begin to fall, most people can't wait to put the lawnmower away and take a much-needed break from cutting the grass. Now that fall is here and the temperatures begin to cool, when should you stop mowing the yard?Lawn care experts say the ideal time to stop mowing is when the grass stops growing. It's a general rule of thumb with which Alex Lambert, manager of Lambert Tractor and Machine Sales in Riverton, Kansas, agrees."Last year, we had a pretty bad drought, and that lasted through most of the summer. When we have years with very little rainfall during the peak summer months, the trees brown up quicker and the grass will also turn brown and stop growing. So the end of the mowing season came much sooner — I'm talking late July or early August," said Lambert.According to a recently published scientific case study on dr...

ALBANY, N.Y. (NEWS10) — This week on Empire State Weekly, the entire state and the nation continue to react to the abduction of a 9-year-old from Saratoga County.

ISLAMABAD (AP) — Powerful earthquakes killed at least 2,000 people in western Afghanistan, a Taliban government spokesman said Sunday. It’s one of the deadliest earthquakes to strike the country in two decades. The figures couldn't be independently verified, but if correct, the toll would eclipse that of an earthquake that hit eastern Afghanistan in June 2022, striking a rugged, mountainous region, flattening stone and mud-brick homes and killing at least 1,000 people.Saturday’s magnitude 6.3 earthquake hit a far more densely populated area, near Afghanistan’s fourth largest city, Herat. It was followed by strong aftershocks.The U.S. Geological Survey said the quake’s epicenter was about 40 kilometers (25 miles) northwest of Herat city. It was followed by three very strong aftershocks, measuring magnitude 6.3, 5.9 and 5.5, as well as lesser shocks.On Sunday, people attempted to dig out the dead and injured with their hands in Herat, clambering over rocks and debris. Survivors and vi...

One Of Hemp’s Most Secretive Cannabinoids- What Is CBL?

Published Tue, 18 Feb 2025 23:38:51 GMT

Read the original article about the Cannabinoid CBL here.CBL doesn’t get as much love as CBD or delta-8 THC. Heck, even compared with other secondary hemp cannabinoids like CBG, it’s far more difficult to find any data on CBL. At this point, the only people who may know about CBL are already deeply immersed in the hemp or legal cannabis industry.While CBL may not be a significant force in today’s hemp market, it often appears in full-spectrum CBD oils. Customers with a keen interest in the many fascinating properties of hemp may want to take a closer look at the chemistry of CBL.What Do We Know About CBL?Interestingly, scientists first discovered cannabicyclol (CBL) in the mid-20th century. Although there’s little data on how CBL affects the endocannabinoid system, most researchers have a good sense of this cannabinoid’s chemical structure.Most significantly, data strongly suggests CBL forms after the cannabinoid CBC disintegrates. Short for cannabichromene, CBC is a rare cannabinoi...
