I live abroad in Turkey and have a grape vine in the garden that I want to move but don't know if it will kill it. The weather here is like early autumn, late spring in britain.
Are there any precautions I should take while moving it.
It does look as if it's dormant at the moment.

The tree is in a large pot, in the kitchen. It doesn't get much direct sunlight, it is regularly watered but not overwatered. It lost it's leaves last winter but recovered, though this winter it seems to be losing far too many leaves?

I planted a precious palm tree in the summer. It was doing great! Now that it is cold and icy I've noticed that it is turning brown but it is still standing. Should I take it out or give it a chance?

I would like to build a drum type composter to utilize the sawdust produced by my small sawmill. Will it work? Would it be possible to compost large amounts?

I have a very large garden and cannot afford to use water saving granules, and a lot of the garden cannot absorb water anymore, because of the drought (Australia). I have been told that I can use a few drops of biodegradable dishwashing liquid in a bucket of water and start putting this around the garden and the soil will be able to absorb water again. Is this true? anyone done this? I don't want to kill the plants that are left.....
I do mulch, but the water just sits on the top of the soil and rolls into little balls.....

I have only shrubs growing and lavender which seems to love this type of soil, but I wanted to landscape, I water and it is still hard I cant get my pit fork in without bending the prongs. What products should I use to soften the soil and make it more suitable for most plants? It’s a rock hard mess at the moment, and I wanted to get it prepared for next planting season.

I heard of a system where you lay out wood, cover it with chicken wire, cement it, put fiber glass over it, then shower it with sand and small rocks so it looks like a large stone.

Please, give me step by step instructions on how to do this professionally. Also without having to buy large expensive stones. I'm looking for a detailed guide on how to make this fake rock waterfall.

Thank you.
