1623704 tn?1300452745 I have five large palms, that I keep in my house during the winter, and a large amount of house plants. lots of perennials in my front and back yard. I keep all the annuals in pots, so I can bring them in for the winter, except the mammoth elephant ears. Those, I pull the bulbs and replant each year out side. I also love herbs, tomatoes. This year will also have bell peppers and spinich. I am not good with flowering plants, but will try again this year.
Avatar f tn Well spring is almost upon us... almost! Anyway, we had a really warm day so I started clearing rocks out of the places where I want to garden. Oh my goodness! There are so many rocks and I have no clue what to do with them all? They're ugly, too (like cement, just a white-grey). Some are so large I have to roll them. So my first question is- what do you do with rocks from your yard? Second, HELP ME! I have no idea and no inkling of how to garden.

410281 tn?1254229064 Sign up online to get some catalogs from nurseries - they always start arriving in January, which is the perfect time to dream about warm weather. Look for plants that can be grown in zones 3 or 4. That means they will be winter hardy for your area.

1626306 tn?1302483506 Hello, I am new to this site. I have been gardening all my life in one way or another. First at my parents then in an apartment with houseplants and currently on 2 acres on my own property. Veggie gardens ,flower gardens rock gardens,water gardens I love them all. I currently try to buy about 98% perennials and just a few annuals for instant colour and of course vegetables. This year I'm hoping to expand and put in a new all white flower bed for a full sun area. Any suggestions?
Avatar m tn I was just wondering with the current economic conditions who is planting a garden this year? If you are what are you planting and how many will it feed and for how long? If you are not, why not? I would really like to hear from both sides on this one. My family always had a garden when I was growing up and my Dad woould plant and tend to it and Mom and Grandmas would can and/or freeze veggies. These would last us almost a year and cut the food cost down considerably.
Avatar m tn I am scheduled to have a stress 36 hours after flying east across 10 time zones. Will jet lag affect the stress test?
Avatar m tn Hi Dear Drs I am a 25 years old man with a comparatively dark skin but not black race. Recently I noticed two dark zones on my face skin symmetrically beside my eyes. The appearance of these dark areas may be as a result of the manipulation of my previous acnes. and as I searched its most probably to be a post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH). But regardless of the cause of their development a cosmetic center adviced me to undergo a dislayeration IPL treatment to solve that and I did so.
Avatar n tn Hi guys, I will be traveling across the globe next week and I would like to purchase some sleeping pills to take with me to cure my jet lag since it's very difficult for my body to get accustomed to the new time zone by itself, and I will be flying to different time zones almost everyday. I'm not very educated on sleeping pills and have a few questions for the experts: 1.) What is the most effective OTC sleeping pills you can recommend? 2.
209384 tn?1231168306 Love the smell of freshly mown grass. The smell of the earth as I'm planting in it. The sounds of all the birds feeding at my feeders. LOVE to watch the golden finches that come to my feeders in droves. Would love to be able to take pictures of them, but if I'm out there they are not. Will have to take some pictures when everything starts blooming and see if I can't upload them. Who knows if I'll be able to figure that out or not.
Avatar n tn He can read, count in English and Spanish, and has very good verbal skills. However, he zones out when in big groups (school and sports). His teacher says he zones out and does not respond to commands when they have rug time. When they go back to their small groups, he is tuned in and proves that he learned what he says. He can also follow commands well when spoken to directly.
163305 tn?1333668571 A so-called “Monsanto rider,” quietly slipped into the multi-billion dollar FY 2013 Agricultural Appropriations bill, would require – not just allow, but require – the Secretary of Agriculture to grant a temporary permit for the planting or cultivation of a genetically engineered crop, even if a federal court has ordered the planting be halted until an Environmental Impact Statement is completed.
Avatar f tn I doubt there are any creams or pills that actually work. There may be re-planting methods that are effective, I really don't know. Or just accept the hand nature has dealt you. Wear a short haircut, then it will be less noticeable as more and more of it disappears. Guys with significant bald patches whose remaining hair is long or thick look daft.
1626306 tn?1302483506 I try to grow mostly perennials. I have 2 acres so they are a better bargan than annuals that just die off here.I love my rock gardens ...although I'm not fortunate enough to have any big boulders.I really like succulents that are good for Zone 4...low maintenance. I also grow some roses -hardy ones only. You have to be a tough plant to survive my gardening. Three years ago I got Asiatic lilly bugs in my garden. They completely stripped my Asiatic Lilies. I battled them every day.
Avatar n tn The feelings of disorientation encountered as a result of crossing time zones are known as jet lag. Symptoms include fatigue and general tiredness, inability to sleep at night, loss of concentration, loss of drive, headaches and general malaise. Jet-lag occurs when biological rhythms are disrupted as a result of rapid transitions across multiple time-zones. Allowing for individual differences, the severity of jet lag is affected by a variety of factors.
Avatar n tn Brown or pale pink blood normally is due to implantation bleeding caused by the baby planting itself in the uterine wall. The soreness may just be a strain from your abdominal muscles changing. Hope this helps!
1056589 tn?1273747102 Our veggie garden is out in the field behind the house and I find myself thinking about planting already. My husband is taking a master gardeners course and that's been exciting. I had been thinking about doing that but then had to laugh..me who has trouble, somedays, remembering where I put my glasses. I think my brain isn't up to it right now. We both have a great love for the earth and for all that it has given us and thinking about next summer's garden is a real joy.
168348 tn?1379357075 If you live in a warm zone, refrigerate them about six weeks before planting them. You can also plant them in layers in a bowl. This is really neat too. Happy Planting.
8265858 tn?1403378544 So I spent the evening playing in the dirt, getting the ground ready for planting. As I did, I had a thought. This garden is going to be like me. That garden plot was a big pile of weeds these past few seasons. Because I would make excuses about being to busy to do the work. So as I recover and reap the benefits of my sobriety so I will reap the benefits of our garden. ;) It's all about perceptive and a positive attitude!
Avatar n tn I think it is normal. I have lower back pains too. Because your body is adjusting to the baby and the baby is planting inside your placenta, it's going to cause a lot if aches and pains everywhere. Especially your lower back.
Avatar f tn No pregnancy tests can't detect one week as that's when the egg is planting.
Avatar f tn posts on here and have found that spotting between 4-12 weeks is very common, it could be implantation bleeding of the embryo planting itself onto your uterus. As long as you are not bleeding bright red or clotting, you should be fine.
