There are six buckets with trees 4 ft tall in each bucket. I was digging for worms when I discovered them, so I left them alone and they're still there.

Alright, although it's just the end of August Mushroom season is fast approaching. Due to the unusual weather this year do you think it's going to be early or later than normal before we see our sacred friends? This question is going to be difficult as, obviously, it's a guess. God bless you Mother Nature, even Tony Blair can't ban you :-)

This is the first year I have ever had an amaryllis and I was wondering when do you bring the plant inside and put it in the dark so that it will bloom for the holidays?

I'm looking for a standing (as opposed to weeping) cherry tree. I've been told by a greenhouse that they have trees that are 10-12 feet currently that grow to be about 25 feet.

Are there larger ones, or is this what I can expect anywhere?

Does anyone have suggestions for the best (even if most expensive) cherry trees?

How do I care for the plant after the roots have sprouted? Do I trim the tree to prevent it from bearing fruit?

I planted a row of lavenders next to the path, but they tend to lie all over the path. Where did I go wrong?

I have set traps and catch at least 50 a week in each (3). I cant find a nest and they seem to be drawn to my aspen trees. Removing the trees is not an option. Is there a concentrate I can put in a sprayer? The canned stuff is getting expensive and does not keep them away though it does kill em. Am i screwed until winter and try to stop em early next spring? They have attacked me, 4 stings and I have little kids I worry about. I am willing to try anything short of a flame thrower,or yanking the trees. Prefer not to use an exterminator but if that is my only option so be it.

I'm looking at planting some landscaping. What plants well in the fall in Georgia? Non-perrenials, please (I'm not one to change up plants every few months--yuck--once planted, I want them to stay).

We have the young male (2/3 years) planted next to a lady of the same age in a large pot. They both appear happy with much new growth, on our sheltered, but sunny south/east facing balcony, and are well watered - Can anyone shed any light on waht is happening, would pruning off the bad leaves help?

Give you idea lol. I like to eat wild food. One is called Poke Salad.
1. Pick and clean the greens
2. Pick the leaves off greens and cut up to fine consistancy
3. Boil the leaves about hour then drain well and rense.
4. Boil them again and prepare for table with either onions, pepper, salt ect.
If you like Spinach you will love this lol.

Now for the stalks do not through away.
1. peel the stalks, this means strip the thin red skin off of them. You will have a greenish clear looking stalk lol.
2. cut stalks in inch long pieces, Batter like you would with Okra or other deep fried things.
3. Fry in deep frier till they are brown on all sides.
4. take off stove salt and pepper to taste and server.
They taste just like fryed okra.
True the leaves have a poision in them this is why you boil them twice, can boil them again if you want but not nessessary. The stalk only part that is bad is the thin red skin that you peal off them. Rest is good to go.
Now anyone else got any.

He told her she would find some cannabis seeds he was meaning to grow one day and she could have them. So my friend being a middle aged female does not know what to do with these seeds, something about laying them on wet cotton wool until they germinate? Please help.
