Scan test needed on the transfer case module. Anything else is wasting time and money!

Thanks Pushrod... I took it to GM dealer for diagnosis.... it cost me $80.00 GM mechanic told me the encoder switch needed replaced which I did my self , should have the GM mechanic known that the TCCM needed scanned as part of their $80.00 trouble shooting? any idea location of the TCCM. I'm just wondering if the GM Mechanic is doing his job or just throwing my money at it. I could of done that my self haha
Replypushrod, January 05, 2014, 09:53Master
That's a good way to put it! Frankly i would take it to a good independent shop for testing! One that has an up to date professional scanner. I find/think we try a little harder than the dealer's commission salary techs.....or employees rather! Now that is just MY opinion!

Replyelett, January 05, 2014, 13:20Rookie
I installed the transfer case range selector position sensor p/n 89059276
ReplyProfessorG, January 05, 2014, 13:27Master
That is not the 4x4 encoder. The encoder is on the transfer case and controls the shifting movement. The GM tech might have given you good information, but you replaced a part that has nothing to do with the encoder. That part will not fix the 4wd.
Replyelett, January 05, 2014, 13:56Rookie
understood thanks... their are three parts to the encoder motor (1) being the (ACTUATOR), (2)the (SENSOR)p/n 89059276 which is installed just in front of the actuator (3) the (INSULATOR)"gasket" p/n 88996636. All three together make up the encoder motor which install via. the spline shaft perpendicular from the transfer case. The GM mechanic advised that the sensor was bad. Any suggestions for the home fix ?
ReplyProfessorG, January 05, 2014, 14:16Master
The encoder is not just an actuator, It has a circuit board that commands the actuator to different positions via the transfer case control module. Just looking up the parts involved will not explain the function or operation of this system without the experience and knowledge of repairing several issues over the years. If you had a Tech2 scan tool and knew how to command the functions of the transfer case control module, you then could see what was functioning properly and what was not. In a lot of cases the power control to the actuator has been compromised, causing no actuator function. So that being said then you would have to be able to diagnose and trace circuits pertaining to the operation and function of the 4wd system. Not trying to be rude but if you don't have the equipment or knowledge of this system, you might cause more problems than what you've started with.
Replyelett, January 05, 2014, 16:28Rookie
ProfessorG, Thanks for the response, no not at all thinking you are being rude with your response. I just figured taking my vehicle to a GM dealer mechanic they could of diagnosed my issue better then was done. I would assume they would of used their "Tech 2 scan tool" via the TCCM before they advised me to replace the sensor, which I did. Now I'm setting here in my living room, no 4x4, watching it snow for the last 12hr., with no sign of let up for the next several hours. Thought I could get some good sound advise on this thread, which I guess I did from "Pushrod". Basically just a shade tree mechanic trying to save a little money and having the pleasure of repairing my own vehicle like the good o'le days.... That being said if you have any of that good down to earth technical information it sure would be welcome. Already making appointment with my local neighborhood mechanic probably.
ReplyProfessorG, January 05, 2014, 16:36Master
The dealer should know but they go through hands quite often with their pay scale. The mech u got May not have the same ability as one who has been working on these issues as much and maybe made a good guess. Sorry but it's not always the same fix with the same symptoms. Sorry but was trying to stress that it's not that easy to tell you what to fix. When we have learned the mistakes already.

I dropped it off at my local independent shop. They advised that their is a service bulletin that states when the position indicator switch is replaced on a 2002 and only on a 2002 model envoy it has to be reprogramed, which they did. It worked fine and all was back to normal for two days , now it's not working again and acting the same way. Any suggestions? What caused it to fail again?
ReplyProfessorG, January 11, 2014, 10:13Master
It's not easy to sit here and make an educated guess without seeing the scan data to back me up. My thought is the programming worked initially and then quit after two days makes my opinion lean toward the control module to be the issue of the fault. Just an opinion of the information I have been given.
Replyelett, January 11, 2014, 14:40Rookie
Went to store started working again..... Leaving to go visit a friend quit working again...any ideas
ReplyProfessorG, January 11, 2014, 17:59Master
Wow plenty of ideas, just want to put my scanner on it and read it to see which part is not responding. Either the module is sending the information to the encoder and the encoder is not/or not able to switch positions, possible motor issue, OR Vise-Versa, the module has a glitch and will work intermittently, possible bad connection, bad circuit board, cold solder joints. The scan tool will give that info, but knowing how to read it is another. That's my dilemma, I want to give you the right answer, and can only guess.

hi I saw this thread and I'm having an issue with my 4 wheel drive so I throw this question out there. my truck got stuck in 4 wheel drive and wouldn't go back into 2 wheel drive I replace the encoder motor (it was seized up) and it went back into 2 wheel drive. Fixed right? Not so fast now the 2wd light is illuminated and when turning knob to go into 4wd nothing happens, the light that would normally blink when going into 4wd does not even go on and the 2wd light stays lit. All lights illuminate when starting truck so don't think it would be the switch. Was thinking of trying to replace the TCCM but am hesitant based on price if it doesn't fix it and would like be more confident instead of throwing money and time at it. Here are the codes that came up on the scan. Anyway to tell what I should change next or is it a shot in the dark?

Thanks if anyone can help
ReplyProfessorG, October 05, 2014, 10:10Master
There are several things to check and verify. I do these all the time and usually have ground issues with the a/b circuit. Update programming the tccm is another possibility. If you replace it then it will need programming as well. Just changing parts is not necessarily going to fix the issue.
Replygrandmstrj, October 05, 2014, 15:05Rookie
Professor my question is does it matter what state the 4 wheel drive on the truck is in before installing the new encoder motor? when I installed the new encoder motor my truck was locked in 4 wheel high. Does it need to be in 2 wheel drive high before installing motor or doesn't it matter?
ReplyProfessorG, October 05, 2014, 15:08Master
A new encoder should be set in the neutral position when installed.

My switch started to malfunction again starting November , has worked fine since June. Just a thought has anyone found the cold to be a factor? I think I found the problem, removed the front axle actuator, took it apart and found the circuit board contaminated with grease which caused a high resistance along with slowing down the movement of the actuator with below freezing temperature. Cleaned contact area and reinstalled. So far so good.

Maybe Venus is in a good mood because of the Taurus moon, or maybe it's her sextile with Mercury that's got her smiling. Whatever the reason, the lovely lady lessens the impact of Mercury's retrograde, turning inconvenience into serendipity, the boredom of waiting into the sweetness of anticipation, and frustrated mistakes into mad artistry.
ARIES (March 21-April 19). You want the best and will approach all things with an eye toward quality, even when you're out of your element. Ask questions to get educated on the difference between "good" and "great."
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Your standards tend to be uncompromising, and this will prove to be a positive thing today. Someone will trust you with a job or privilege because of your proven track record.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You'll be dealing with a group of diverse personalities. It's hard to come up with ideas everyone agrees with, but you'll strive for a mutually beneficial outcome. A mutual benefit is a benefit that will endure.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). You sense the inner life of your loved ones, especially when they endeavor to hide such things from you. You'll reach out to someone who is putting on a brave face while hurting inside.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You'll improve yourself by listening to music. Active listening will be a kind of meditative exercise that will help to strengthen your will, clarify your feelings and guide you in objective self-reflection.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You'll organize your assets in a way that makes the most of all you have. You won't waste time or any other resource at your disposal. There is strength in your efficiency.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You'll encounter many puzzles. Whether or not these puzzles cause frustration is entirely up to you. Relax and realize that nothing has to be solved in one day. Resist easy fixes. Playful investigation leads to solutions.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Your day will have a rhythm not unlike your own breathing. You'll take in life and process and contain it for a moment before releasing your energy into the world. You'll move through all of the stages and then repeat.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Life may seem to scold you in a way you don't deserve. The echo of a childhood hurt may come back to you. It's your chance to realize that this is not about you and move into more peaceful surroundings.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You like to have a plan, though you don't always like to follow it.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Thinking of adventure is different from embarking on one. You need a push. Your spirit of exploration will be awakened and encouraged by the fire-sign influences you know — that's Aries, Leo and Sagittarius.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Anything you wish to accomplish will require a balanced integration of your thoughts, emotions and physical will. Whatever you can do to engage all three categories at once will bring you joy.
TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (March 26). Your friends and family love you the way you are, but you have other plans. You embrace change and enjoy the new person you are becoming. There's a trade off in April, and you'll be glad you made it. Your care helps a loved one thrive in May. August begins an education and fresh financial horizons. Hot dates fill September. Gemini and Libra people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 40, 2, 14, 39 and 28.
ASTROLOGICAL QUESTIONS: "I am making a major business deal! Should I proceed with it? Is it the right time? Also, I'm having serious problems with my husband (birthdays withheld for anonymity), and I don't know how long I can carry on with this significant compromise in my life. I feel personally, emotionally and financially insecure just by association with him. Do you think my marriage will last long?"
There's a beautiful lineup of creative, daring Leo energy and nurturing, healing Cancer energy in your natal chart, with the moon, Mercury and Mars in Cancer and the sun and Mercury in Leo. In some ways, you feel like you are a mother to your husband, and in other ways, you feel like you are a child who needs him to be a better playmate and partner.
Jupiter, the planet of good fortune and abundance, is actively angling you now. There's a lucky trine of Jupiter to your natal Jupiter that brings ease, success and optimism, especially in regard to finance. However, Jupiter forms a square to your natal Venus (love), and the tension and disharmony will be felt into April. Mid- to late April will bring increased communication, and you'll draw out definitive answers on both the career and relationship fronts.
CELEBRITY PROFILES: Watching the lovely Keira Knightley battle pirates in swordplay and even become one of them in the fantasy/adventure film series "Pirates of the Caribbean," it is easy to see the fiery Aries influence at work. Knightley has her sun, Mercury and Venus all in the intensely passionate sign. Her moon in Gemini promises that Knightley is never without a witty comment or fun topic of conversation to add to the mix.

The idea of taking uneaten portions of meals home has been frowned upon for decades in France, but the Union of Hotel Professions (UHP) said doggy bags had become necessary to combat the problem of food waste.Full Story

A growing number of Latin American nations are turning to "innovation mercantilist" practices to grow their economic sectors, including manufacturing. Yet, an alternative approach, enhancing innovation among manufacturers, particularly small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs), is actually much more effective in spurring sustainable growth. This report benchmarks SME manufacturing extension services in eight Latin American and Caribbean countries and highlights best practices in bolstering manufacturing productivity, innovation, and export potential. The report also provides a comprehensive impact analysis of manufacturing extension services in both developed and developing countries, finding that such programs have achieved significant impacts in bolstering competitiveness.
An Alternative to Mercantilism: Manufacturing Extension Services in Latin American and Caribbean Countries
National Manufacturing Day Highlights Challenges and Opportunities
As important as it is to celebrate the contribution manufacturing makes to a vibrant U.S. economy, National Manufacturing Day should also recognize the significant trade barriers U.S. manufacturers continue to face in global markets—especially as a growing number of countries have resorted to embracing a particularly pernicious form of trade barrier known as localization barriers to trade.
Congress Needs to Fix the Helium Program Now
Because of its unique traits, helium is used in a variety of scientific and industrial processes including semiconductor production, optical fiber manufacturing, and magnetic resonance imaging. Unless Congress acts soon, the Federal Helium Program will begin shutting down on October 1. If this happens a valuable federal resource will lie unutilized and 42 percent of current domestic supply will disappear at a time when the helium market is already experiencing shortages.
America's Manufacturing Renaissance: Fact and Fiction
Stephen Ezell dispels the myth of an American manufacturing renaissance and discusses policies to support advanced manufacturing at the Germany Intelligent Production Conference.
Are Robots Taking Our Jobs, or Making Them?
With U.S. unemployment remaining stubbornly above 7 percent and job growth anemic, many have latched on to a compelling explanation: "the robots are taking our jobs." In other words, a "neo-Luddite" narrative has taken hold. According to this line of thinking, high productivity driven by increasingly powerful IT-enabled machines is the cause of U.S. labor market problems, and accelerating technological change will only make those problems worse. There's only one flaw in this narrative: it is completely wrong and not supported by data, scholarly evidence or logic. This report analyzes the "robots are killing our jobs" arguments, shows how they are constructed on faulty analysis, examines the extensive economic literature on the relationship between employment and productivity, and explains the logic of how higher productivity leads to more jobs. We show that more technology benefits not just the economy overall, but workers: more and better technology is essential to U.S. competitiveness and higher living standards. The claim that increased productivity eliminates jobs is misguided speculation.
Robots Are Not the Enemy
The notion that technology, automation and productivity lead to fewer jobs and higher unemployment is simply wrong. There is no logical relationship between job growth and productivity. From a macro perspective, a nation could have high productivity but if they also have a declining workforce, the employment rate will rise. Or, in a micro example, if a firm uses the profits gained from higher productivity to hire more workers, employment will also increase.

Hollywood superstar Tom Cruise has admitted that he had a lot of fun playing tough guy Jack Reacher. Tom is one of those actors who loves a challenge and loves to do his own stunts and he had plenty of stunts to do in Jack Reacher, including a high-speed car chase.
Cruise explained, "It took a lot of skill, but I had an absolute blast doing it. It was really fun. That car is a tricky car. The surfaces on the road were not always ideal, but I always wanted to do a car chase like that. So, I was very excited to have the opportunity to do it."
Tom also admitted that he enjoyed the challenge of playing Jack Reacher, "He's just a very unique character. He's got dignity, he's got his own moral code. He's not dealing with the constraints of normal society, yet he is very moral and he is flawed and he's interesting. He's got great wit."
As well as starring Tom Cruise, Jack Reacher also stars Rosamund Pike, Jai Courtney and Robert Duvall and is out now in both the US and the UK. Check out the trailer for Jack Reacher below.

Carinthian Alps-Adriatic Cuisine
The Joy of Living that You Can Actually Taste
In Carinthia, on the sunny south side of the Alps, there is a motto that says to live life with utter enjoyment. Much of that enjoyment comes from the Carinthian Alps-Adriatic cuisine, in which fresh and local ingredients, seasonal occasions, age-old cooking traditions and creative reinterpretations merge together into one very tasty ensemble. In Carinthia, the wine, cider and schnapps are homemade as well.
Influenced by the culinary cultures of three distinct regions—Carinthia, Fruili-Venizia Guila and Slovenia—fresh regional products stand at the foreground of Carinthia's flavourful dishes. As is fitting for a truly authentic cuisine, it is the different regions as well as seasonal fluxes that impact the varying spectrum of the Alps-Adriatic cuisine. Good taste truly knows no borders! While on an excursion to neighbouring Italy or Slovenia, one is very likely to encounter several "relatives" of Carinthian specialties. Carinthian "Käsnudel" (dumplings filled with curd cheese and herbs) become ravioli in their Italian form, while the Slovenian "Pohaca" and the Fruilian "Gubana" very closely resemble the Carinthian "Reindling," a yeast cake filled with raisins, cinnamon and sugar.
One of the many examples of a special seasonal Carinthian delicacy is Lavanttaler asparagus, which is harvested by hand as early as the beginning of April. It is not only available at weekly farmers markets, but can also be acquired directly from the farmers themselves. Furthermore, local chefs use Lavanttaler asparagus to create stunning dishes. Another example of a special seasonal dish: autumnal game meat from native forests, especially venison. The most highly regarded venison can be found in the so-called Metnitztal, the Metnitz Valley.
Aside from the influence of the seasons on local produce availability, religious traditions have also left an imprint on the regional cuisine. The traditional Easter meal of ham, horseradish and the aforementioned Reindling, the egg-yolk-yellow Parish Church Day soup ("Kirchtagssuppe") and the crispy Martini goose from Carinthia's organic farmers serve as just a few examples. The specialty that can undoubtedly be enjoyed year-round is Carinthian "Käsnudel," a traditional dish of dumplings filled with a mixture of potato and curd cheese, and attaining a unique taste through the addition of herbs such as chervil and mint. The filling varies based on the region, and family recipes are often passed down from mother to child, through the generations.
Festivals and Markets
The opportunity for guests to savour the regional cuisine lies not only with the welcoming hosts of the region's varied spectrum of restaurants—spanning from cosy wine taverns ("Buschenschank") to trendy lakeside nightclubs and gourmet restaurants. Culinary festivals, which take place year-round, also give visitors a chance to experience the renowned Carinthian hospitality and conviviality. To name just a few: the Gurktaler Bacon Festival ("Speckfest"), the Had'nherbst Festival, the Beef Festival ("Rindfleischfest") at Ossiacher Tauern, the Irschner Herb Festival ("Kräuterfestival") and the Polenta Festival in Nötsch. The region's weekly farmers' markets also guarantee not only delicious products but also recipe suggestions and memorable anecdotes.
"Genussland Kärnten": Carinthia—Region of Culinary Enjoyment
Anyone who tastes the Carinthian Alps-Adriatic cuisine will not be surprised by the 13 so-called "enjoyment-regions" existing between Lesachtal and Lavanttal, which focus primarily on producing only the highest quality of regional culinary specialties. Under the umbrella brand of "Genussland Kärnten," 13 products are united to reflect the way in which they are grown, ripened and processed under clearly defined guidelines, spanning from Gailtaler bacon ("Speck") and Nockberge Alpine beef ("Almrind"), all the way to Jauntaler "Hadn" cake and Lavanttaler hard cider ("Apfelwein"). Deemed especially delightful, the Glockner lamb acquires its fine herbal taste from grazing at an altitude of up to 3,000 metres above sea level. Another specialty: the Kärntna Låxn (Carinthian trout), which can only be bred and farmed by four specially chosen establishments in Upper Carinthia. The slow growth of the trout in clear, cold mountain water guarantees high-quality meat. The popular Fischfest in Feld am See will take place on July 11th this year.
Age-Old Traditions of Wine, Hard Cider and Stone Pine Schnapps
The Carinthian counterpart to Italian Frizzante is Lavanttaler hard apple cider, produced from deep-rooted varietals of apples with unique names such as the Bean Apple ("Bohnapfel"), the "Lavanttaler Banana" and the "Schmidberger." The knowledge necessary to successfully process the apples to create both hard cider and schnapps is passed down from generation to generation. The Zogglhof in St. Paul in Lavanttal has emerged as a centre of competence regarding the processing of fruit and as an institution for quality assurance.
Winegrowing in Carinthia includes traditions that date back over 1,000 years. After being essentially forgotten for some time, Carinthian wines have celebrated a prosperous comeback over the last several years.
A traditionally Carinthian meal of tasty bacon, sausages, liverwurst and curd cheese is not complete without a post-meal digestive. In this case, Carinthian schnapps are especially popular. Those opting for a traditional stone pine schnapps ("Zirbenschnapps") will receive schnapps with a sharp resinous aroma influenced by the cones of a special type of pine tree. Aside from Zirbenschnapps, the well-known Gurktaler Alpenkräuter schnapps is one of Carinthia's finest, prepared according to an old recipe calling for various herbs, and consecrated each year in the Cathedral of Gurk.
World Heritage Bread
The art of bread baking in Lesachtal is 10,000 years old. The process of transformation from raw grain to finished loaf has remained unchanged for several centuries, which led to its being named an officially protected piece of cultural heritage by the UNESCO in 2010.

A Brief History of Time
Errol Morris (The Fog of War) turns his camera on one of the most fascinating men in the world: the pioneering astrophysicist Stephen Hawking, afflicted by a debilitating motor neuron disease that has left him without a voice or the use of his limbs. An adroitly crafted tale of personal adversity, professional triumph, and cosmological inquiry, Morris's documentary examines the way the collapse of Hawking's body has been accompanied by the untrammeled broadening of his imagination.

March 25, 2015 - Wanted to give this ring a five star rating, BUT I am disappointed that such a beautiful ring is losing the stones out of it. I have had less that 3 weeks and have lost four stones from it already. I'm really sad about that as it is such a great ring. Hope you can correct this problem in the future.
February 24, 2015 - I absolutely love my new ring - it is exactly how it is pictured and it fits me perfectly!!
February 13, 2015 - Nice Ring and good message for my granddaughter to have at hand (pardon the pun) when she is out in this crazy world that the kids of today have to face.
February 1, 2015 - I wear this everyday. I bought another for my friend who loves it just as much as I do!
January 31, 2015 - It's absolutely stunning. Very pretty too.

Beer in Brugge
... But today I feel fairly well rested, or as much as I can. I could still easily sleep another 20.
Yesterday afternoon I took the metro to Grand Place. Brussels' metro system is beautiful. Modern, clean, easy to follow. I can live in ...
Where it started..
... places.' So that's the part where I am not so excited. After the presentation I had to apply, in Spanish, English, Germanic and Dutch for this internship. I was so nervous. It was literally killing me. The women where I had to apply, was really gentle to me. So after 5 minutes I thought 'Sanne, don't be this stupid, you can do this. Take a deep breath and do your thing.' And again she told me that there are limited places for Spain. After a week I would hear if I would be chosen ...
On the boat again
... back then...!
It went in really easily this time, so less scared than I was getting it on there to start with. In fact, I'm just so less scared in general now! Then we joined the queue to wait in the heat to load up on the ferry.
Again, a lovely little cabin, this time with bunks and we decided to get food and go to duty free before my anti-sickness ...
Bruges - City tour/new friends/great beer
... and my day with the Kiwi's I met Elsie and Lauren. We did a bike ride through the town the next morning and then I took off for Amsterdam. It seems like everyone in Bruges came from or was going to Amsterdam. Elsie and I were both going to Amsterdam that day so we took the train together. Lauren was also going there, but she had a bus pass so we met up with her later that ...
Barbequing Marshmallows
... my face was getting next to the fire haha. Then I "barbeque" my own marshmallow and tell them to all take a look at the perfection haha. We were all laughing and having a good time. Really made my day. :)
That has to be one of my favorite memories so far from being at the center. I have been really blessed by being able to be here in Belgium and especially to be at this center and this little piece in time was just one small reminder of that.
Love you all,

Question: What is the curious booth in the Identity exhibition?
Answer: The curious booth in the corner of the first gallery space in the Identity exhibition is the Talking Difference portable studio.
Talking Difference is an online media project developed and designed by Museum Victoria's Public Programs Team at the Immigration Museum and a group of diverse and enthusiastic young people. The project is designed to encourage and facilitate dialogue about cultural diversity and difference and provide a way for this information to be recorded and shared. It is a private booth in a public space and gives participants the opportunity to record video responses to questions, write or draw responses and comment on other participant's responses.
We love receiving comments, but can't always respond.
Hello, I live in lake Cargelligo which is a very small town, if you contacted someone older, like the volunteers at the information centre locally, they could p...

Your live fish may not match the image shown due to natural variations in each species. Each companion animal is different in shape, color, and personality.
The vividly colored Undulated Trigger, or Orange-lined Trigger is a bright orange striped fish with a brown-ish green body, and blue highlights. As with other triggerfish, Balistapus undulatus will constantly rearrange rocks and gravel, all while "grunting" as a form of vocalization. Triggerfish also have the ability to lock their dorsal fins and spine while in crevices to make it difficult for predators to get the trigger out. Many triggerfish are known to have personalities similar to dogs, will recognize their owners, and have been known to squirt water as a "trick". Triggers can also change the intensity of their coloration, going from a faded and drab when sleeping or being submissive, to vibrant when healthy and unthreatened. Undulated Triggers should only housed with other aggressive fish.

Thai Green Pea Eggplant
Well, way back in April I posted here that my Thai Green Pea Eggplant did not germinate. Turns out three weeks later it did (what an incredibly slow starter).
I planted it and it shot up like a weed. It was 7 feet tall in July, but bore no flowers. August 1, no flowers. Just as I was preparing to post again bemoaning my Thai Green Pea Eggplant problems, flowers everywhere!
These 3 plants are now all over 8 feet tall with hundreds of little green buds!
My next question: How can you tell when they're ripe?
They go from light green to slightly yellow when ripe. I believe you do not use them when they are ripe, but rather pick them when they're fully grown and develop a very light green color, they should be crisp to the bite and slightly bitter or tart in taste, and the seeds crisp but soft. They are used in Thai curry. The Vietnamese pickle the larger version or eat them raw. If the seeds are dark and somewhat tough, they're too ripe.
I grew them last year - 10 feet tall and covered with blooms - unfortunately it seems that they won't produce until the second year. For those growing in less temperate areas that means taking cuttings in the fall, wintering them over and planting out the next spring. Wish I'd known that before we tilled the whole thing under. If you have any extra cuttings I'd love to get some!
Sorry - forgot to check back here. The deal is you need to take cuttings, root them, winter them over in a green house or inside your house, then plant out next year. When they begin growing next year it is best to keep them wacked back to three or four feet to force them to bush more than just grow tall. They will then begin blooming and set fruit.
I never did this because I didn't get the info until I'd already tilled mine under. So seriously, if you get any cuttngs started I'd love to get a couple from you.
Wish some of this information had been included in the seed catalog blurb, but they had never grown it.
Let me know how it all turns out.
Strange - I saw these for the first time in our local Asian market on Saturday. Was very tempted to buy them but did not, think I will now and give a go at stir frying.
If it is any consolation, all my aubergines grew about 2 inches tall then stopped. I am going to overwinter and see what happens next year.
I'm in zone 4, planted small plants from the local farmer's market kinda late this spring and we have fruit to eat. Makin' a nice Thai green curry tonight--yum!
I didn't think there were different varities... I recommend y'all grow the ones that you don't have to winter over, unless you like the effort, of course.
Yes..I think it was my post a while back that had something to do about the pea eggplant. I recommended to those folks in cooler climate that may not be getting any fruits due to a much earlier winter than someone like me in SoCal, to take a cutting of a mature pea eggplant, root them, overwinter them and plant it out next spring.
There aren't many varieties of pea eggplant out there, all I know of is of a thornless variety besides that everything else is much the same. Hope that cleared up the confusion.
I'd imagine it would be similar to the process of freezing other eggplant varieties.
Here is a link that might be useful: Freezing Eggplant

Do you forget where your perennials are planted during their dormant stage? You can identify each by painting a picture of it on a stone and placing the stone in your garden where the flower will come up next year. In addition to helping you remember where your perennials are planted, the rocks will help you visualize your garden during the winter months so you can consider changes you might make when spring comes.
Darlene Lynch Virginia
If you're bothered by the noise and mess of roosting birds, try this idea. Cut off a 6-foot section of old garden hose. Paint it with bright colors to resemble a snake, and be sure to include black dots to resemble eyes on the head. Now wind the "snake" around one of the lower branches of any tree that has been adopted by a roost of starlings or other undesirable birds. The birds will complain, but within a day or two, they'll select another site for their roost.
M. Milhaus Iowa
Square plastic clips used to close bread bags come in handy for supporting young vines. When a vine begins to climb wires or netting, slip the cliparound its stem, and hook it onto the support. This holds the vine gently in position until it can catch hold.
Vonnie Kovacic British Columbia
When weeding or trimming bushes in your garden, place your clippings on an overturned trash can lid. When the lid fills up, simply dump the clippings into the trash can or compost pile.
Ellen Dickey New Jersey
Protect your knees while working in the garden. Take a hot water bottle and fill it with sand or sawdust. It makes an ideal kneeling pad. If you're working with garden-size bags of soil, those work, too.
Mary Stager Minnesota
You can easily remove rocks and other debris from the postholes you are digging by using a standard downspout elbow as a shovel.
George Snell New Jersey
Protect the bark on your trees from weed whackers. Cut the top and bottom off a plastic two-liter bottle. Take the center part of the bottle, cut it vertically, and place the bottle around the trunk for protection.
Florence Atkins New Jersey
Here's a simple and inexpensive way to fertilize your garden. Use an ice pick to punch holes in the bottom of an empty one-gallon milk jug. Cut a hole in the top of the jug -- removing the spout but leaving the handle. Put some fertilizer in the jug and walk slowly around the garden to evenly treat your plants.
Emma Lee Ewing Maryland
Coat your shovels, hoes, and other gardening tools with cooking spray before spending the day weeding, planting, and hoeing. The spray will ensure easy cleanup when your work is through.
Julie Munch Minnesota
This easy tip can help you make neat, circular gardens around your trees. Tie a loop of rope between the tree base and the base of the shovel handle. By keeping the rope tight while you edge the garden, you'll be sure to maintain a constant radius. The result is a nice, even circle around the tree.
George Morris, Jr. New Jersey
Here's a great way to ease your shrub clipping cleanup. Simply take an old shower curtain or sheet and cut a slit halfway through on one side. Then, place the sheet around the base of the bush. After trimming, gently pull out the curtain and discard your clippings.
Hang a mailbox with a lid outside and use it to store small gardening tools and gloves. These items will be readily available when you need them, and they'll be protected from the weather.
Prevent animals from digging in your flower garden with a piece of lattice and three easy steps. 1) Cut a piece of treated lattice to fit your flowerbed; 2) Lay it on top of the soil and plant your seeds in the openings; 3) Water and wait. Your flowers will cover the lattice and animals won't be able to dig in the soil below.
Jeannie Logan Indiana
When you need to transplant a large shrub, put it on a snow shovel and slide it across the lawn.
Mrs. C.E. Thomas Arkansas
Here's a great way to keep deer, rabbits, and other wild animals away from your garden. Simply cut shavings from any strongly scented soap and place them around the garden perimeter. Repeat after hard rains.
Barbara Davis Virginia
Keep insects away from the apples growing on your tree. Coat a real apple with "insect trap coating," then string it to your tree. A real apple should trap twice as many maggot flies as the plastic traps you can buy. It costs less, too. Take precautions to identify the apple if you live in a neighborhood where a child might "pick" it.
Kurt Fredrickson California
You can kill a weed without harming surrounding plants. Just spray the weed killer through an empty papertowel or toilet paper cylinder.

Speed painting challenge!Hey guys!I've really been into speed painting lately, so I wanted to challenge myself. And also you!The idea of a speed painting is that you take a limited amount of time for a painting. This can be half an hour, or up to two hours, depending how much time you have (and are willing to spend). During that time you make a painting, or get as far as possible. When you reach the time limit, the painting is done. No getting back to it. No cheating. It's done.How? Use any medium. I use digital, because it's fast and clean. But you can use traditional as well. Use references if needed. Don't forget; References are GOOD!!! Take these tips and tricks to heart. Take 1 to 2 hours per painting. Not more. Don't cheat.:bul
Using HTML on deviantARTHello!Hello and welcome to my little html tutorial. I've been working with html codes for a couple of years and I'm going to teach you what I know about using some basic html on deviantART. This won't make you a html expert or something and I'm not an expert myself but it will give just enough knowledge to make your journals, comments, news articles and other neat and lovely looking. deviantART actually has FAQs about html but I still wanted to do this because they look a bit unorganized, in my opinion. Also, why would you want to look for those FAQs when you can just open this news article where you have everything in one place?

Writing Effective DialogueWe've all struggled through figuring out how to write dialogue that not only gets the information out there, but also helps build characters or advance the plot. There are tons of books and blogs out there on the topic, too. But just reading about it doesn't do much good if we're not ready to try it out. Give it a go and see what other people think. But let's start with the basics.What is Effective Dialogue?Dialogue that's written well will reveal character traits, add to the tension and suspense, helps cut down on text walls of description and of course, advances your plot. One of the most important things to keep in mind when you're writing dialogue is that in fiction, your reader doesn't want to read all the mundane things we say on a regular basis. So if it's not moving the plot or adding to your character's personality, you should think about cutting it completely.What do I mean by reveals character traits?S
7 Tips To Instantly Become A Better ArtistPractice, practice, practice. Gah.Attend life drawing classes over the summer. Blegh.Take a sketchbook with you everywhere you go, and fill up ten of those bad boys at the coffee shop. Pfft.Let's be honest here. We all want to become better artists, like, right frickin' now. We don't even want to have to suffer through hour-long tutorials of some pompous snooty hack bloviating over the intricate methods of drawing eyes on YouTube. We want progress, we want improvement, and we want it on our desk in ten minutes ago!Fine, fine, I hear ya'. While these aren't going to make an instant Leonardo da Vinci out of you, these might get you up to...ehh...Basquiat caliber. Sure, I've made tutorials, but those are more about setting up Photoshop for the sake of coloring an image, and not so much building yourself artistically. Those are more technical lessons.

How to draw during 365 daysBy the beginning of 2014 I started this account and uploaded a doodle a day during a year. It was the most challenging thing I ever did and it helped me loads on improving my art.I've seen a lot of mentions on my inbox about artists that are starting their own 365 Days challenge and I want to write this journal to share what I've learned through my experience and maybe encourage some of you to join this long term journey. It's okay to start simple!My first doodles were waaay more simple than the other ones. If I had to start the project again I would still do them simple. Of course, starting this challenge is very exciting but it's a dead end if you put a heavy load on yourself at the beginning!Focus on knowing your pace first. How much time does it take you to finish your drawings? Stay originalOn my

dropping leaves on indoor bouganinvillea
I have a bougainvillea that one would have thought was a dead, woody stem stuck in a pot, until suddenly it stated sprouting green clusters of leaves and two fabulously large and long shoots. It faces a southern window, But the leaves are starting to wilt and drop. Not sue wat this means. This plant is so mysterious to me - it always seems long gone and then suddenly comes back to bloom beautifully - but I'm never sure if I am helping or hindering!
I water thoroughly and then let it dry o and I feed it 8 - 7 - 4 every two weeks or so.
Why do the leaves drops?
Bougainvillea is not an indoor plant. It needs a lot of root space. It can be grown as a Bonsai but you need to root prune it fairly drastically if you want any success. Assuming it is in a pot, cut it back hard then when it looks as if it is pretty much revived, yank it out and cut back the roots.Not sure what area you're in, but try and keep it outside during warm weather. Unless it gets a lot of sun it will not flower( produce the showy bracts).Don't overwater, especially while it is under stress. Chances of success: 30-40%.
I agree with putting it outside. The sun in IA is not as strong as it would be where this plant grows naturally. This time of year, I would suspect it is dropping leaves because the insufficient light does not allow it to produce enough sustenance to support them. When it gets cold again and you bring it in, it will likely go dormant and lose all of the leaves. If you don't overwater it during this time, it should be able to start growing again the following spring, like it is trying to do now.
