molt

Mr Molt says he harvests his own leeks, onions, potatoes and tomatoes through the greenhouse society, which are given away to fellow students.

Archie Molt, a third-year student at Canterbury Christ Church University, has formed a greenhouse society on campus to provide fellow finance-conscious students with food.

After years underground, periodical cicadas — insects of the genus Magicicada — are emerging by the trillions across more than a dozen states to molt, sing, court and mate.

Mr. Rave says that after the eggs hatch, many of the mothers go off to molt.

A few days after they emerge and molt, the males will start buzzing in an effort to find a mate, a slow-building crescendo of noise that in a chorus can be louder than a plane.
