Does any one know the name of the grass seed seen on T.V.? It says that it will grow on cinderblocks and stuff? I missed the name of the company and the web site or phone number. Can anyone help?

Just moved to NW GA, Planted a garden,Tomatoes, G-peppers,Ban-peppers,etc..Well I used Miracle Grow on everything 1 time thru the watering system every 7 days..It seemed that everything was doing so well , but then it seemed that everything slowed on growing except the tomatoes,they grew to be approx. 8 ft tall and the tomaroes got so big that they started splitting around the vine, well everything else just kinda grew at a very slow pace and never did get very big, I think the biggest bell pepper i had was about the size of a tennis ball..Maybe yall can help me..

I have a baytree and it has scale insects sucking on it. I dont want to use a systemic insecticide as I cook with the leaves. It also gets small green catterpillars (inchworms) that eat the young leaves and stick them together all year.

I bought a rugosa rose plant and it has been blooming all summer. I noticed a red fruity looking thing on it that resembles a tomato. What is it?

If you've followed some of my posts you'd know that I like to experiment with new plants, and I especially love the "discount rack" for putting into action some unexplored ideas I have about beauty (otherwise unattainable due to monetary contstraints).

I buy "discounts" because I think I have powers to make puny plants look terrific by the next season.

The dollar rack plants ALWAYS look puny.

What is the criteria for discounting plants at an upscale nusery?

On my own I can come up with a some acceptable ones which make me think its ok to buy from the dollar rack: "These plants are out of bloom and not currently attractive to buyers." and "The nusery has an over-surplus of these plants and it cost to much to maintain them."

Do I ever need to be concerned about these reasons?

"This plant is sick. Cut off the bad parts and sell the rest"
"This plant is not blooming as it should, its a bastard color (or whatever) but we can still make a profit"

Is ok to buy off the dollar rack?

Does anybody know if cranberry bushes thrive in Nevada? I live in Nevada and want to plant some cranberry bushes in the spring. I don't know where to find them or if they would even thrive here.

I have a large old oak in my back yard. It has 2 trunks at the base and is probably about 60ft tall. It has 2 small openings where the trunks come together and for the last 2 summers, there have been carpenter ants in them. I spray like crazy and put any traps....they still survive.
I have read that the ants won't actually kill a tree because they are not EATING it, just moving dead stuff out.
The tree also has a tiny bit of green moss on the bark at the ground level, which I read was a bad sign.
The tree looks perfectly healthy otherwise. Any prognosis? This is our best shade and privacy tree!
