Home & Garden - 17 July 2006

i was wondering whether it was better to water plants in the morning or in the evening, or whether it makes a difference. i was thinking that it did not matter what time of day you watered them, because they're still getting the same amount of water in 24 hours.
thanks for your input!

I bought a bunch at Costco, but now they don't have anymore. I'm trying to get our place totally organized. We've got a bunch of stuff that needs to be stored away neatly.

I don't think Storables is inexpensive.

Maybe Target or Fred Meyer.

Anywhere else?

Thanks!

We have a plant but it has not bloomed before. We think we may have buds but not sure. It is not a new leaf but different growth coming off a leaf.

If you eat garlic is it actually a detractant for mosquitoes? Will it kill them if they eat it?

I live in North Hollywood, so you should be closer than, say, colorado.

heh heh. It has to be orbital, though. I am afraid of the drum.


thanks!

I have odd size couches, and the store bought couch covers are way to big and bulky. I want to make my own, but having a difficult time figuring out how to go about it.

I have had this Flamingo Plant for 5 years and never had trouble with it before. Its still blooming, just finished a bloom last week,infact. But every so often one leaf starts yellowing and eventually the stem yellows until it falls off. It is a 10" pot with a self watering system so i add water about every 2 weeks. The water is well water. I haven't fertilized in at least 7 months and it sits in a northfacing window catching a little morning light from the east. I spin the plant every time I water it so the whole plant gets some sun. I can't figure it out and don't know what else to do. I only has 9 leaves left; 3 on each base stem. Does anyone know what is wrong? What I could do to fix the problem?

I am getting ready to replant it just for the novelty into a red clay pot to put in my window. Anyone know anything about these plants and the care they require? It just says direct sunlite and water when it dries out.

My house has a driveway made up of big 8-to-10-foot square concrete slabs. Between these big "tiles" of concrete, weeds like to grow (of course). I know a weed-killer like Round-Up is obviously one solution to dealing with them, but that seems to be a solution you have to keep doing repeatedly, every season or whatever.

My question is, is there a more permanent way to prevent weeds from ever growing between the slabs - like filling the seams, or would that, for some reason, be a bad idea or look like crap? Should they be left as they are so that the driveway has room to expand and shift? What product would I buy to fill the seams?
