What is the name for the thing that you put underneath your plants when you're keeping them inside and you don't want the excess water from watering them to leak onto the carpet?

I'm talking about a piece of hard plastic shaped kinda like a plate that is raised in the middle (where the plant sits) and has gutters around the outside so water that leaks out of the plant drains into there instead of on the carpet.

bonus points if you can show me where i can get one online.

thanks

I have a gopher in my front yard (and, no, that's not a euphemism). He used to stay confined to a corner of a planter, with his one and only gopher hole tucked nearly invisibly behind a bush, and that was fine. Lately, however, he's begun cutting zig-zagging tunnels across my front walk, tearing up the yard and creating big mounds of dirt in the process. My wife is an animal lover (also not a euphemism) and would rather I didn't kill him (she's even named him: "Wally"). In fact, saying "she'd rather" is probably not quite strong enough. I'm guessing the truth is much closer to "she would divorce me if..."

You see my dilemma.

Anyway, I'm not too big on unnecessary killing either, so I'm hoping someone out there knows of a way to encourage a gopher to relocate...

He appeared in my basement about a week ago. I don't know if he thinks we're his winter home, but he can't stay! I want to get him out without hurting him. Is there another way without using anything that's gonna make me gag like all those pesticides they sell.

No need to remove stump/grinding, etc. Just take the tree down, haul away.

Hi...I made a mistake when I asked this the first time. It is a meyer lemon tree that 10 years ago had small yellow lemons on it. It didn't grow fruit for 8 years until I used miracle grow fruit tree stakes and now it grows 12 inch lemons that stay green and never turn yellow.....any ideas on how to get them to turn yellow. It is not a pomelo...thanks for the idea.

You have to chop a few down every year, so you need fast growing trees that provide good heat when burned. You also need to squeeze in the most trees per acre. What are the best trees for this?
