I think a wicking system can be done using whatever size water container you think the pot will need (allowing for evaporation). It should be higher than the pot with a wick going from the water container down into the soil. I think the upside down things would just drain into the soil and out the drainage holes. It might be possible to drill a very tiny hole in something, but still you know how fast you can fill a bucket from a drip, drip, drip.

Fill a pot with rich, well-draining soil; then stick your finger into it leaving a 1/2" indentation. place the seed into it root down, sprinkle lightly with more soil just to cover, move to bright location...in a couple of days you will see the real shoot. You won't believe how fast they grow! Congratulations!

OK - I tried uploading directly from my camera to Photobucket - and you cannot do that. DANG! Here is an easy way to upload your pics to a computer (you never need to use the camera software - I really dislike Kodak especially, but if you are comfortable with it, that is ok) Plug your camera in to the computer, or place card into card reader. Go to MY COMPUTER and find the device. Double click on it and your images should pop up. You may see them as thumbnails, tiles, icons, or list - depending on how your computer is set...you can always change that. Click on the first image you want to copy - then hold down the shift key and select the last image you want to copy - this will select all of them in between also. Right click and select copy. Go to the Desktop of the computer. Right click on a blank area and mouse over NEW-> go over to FOLDER and click on that to create a new folder. You can rename it when you create it or just leave it named NEW FOLDER (it doesn't matter). Double click on the folder to open. Right click and select PASTE. Your photos will be zipping into this folder! You can upload to Photobucket like normal from there. This will NOT remove the pictures from your camera card. Delete your folder when you are done. DON'T forget your card if you have removed it from your camera!! You can create the desktop folder at any time - you also don't have to have it located on the desktop - but this would be easiest while you are traveling so you don't forget to delete. You should be able to practice this at home. If you can't shut down the Kodak program - just let it do it's thing - then try it after it has finished. Or try it at a library. The little thumb drives (USB drives) and camera memory cards are the same thing - just in a different package. An external hard drive is just like a thumb drive, just bigger. THumb drives are so easy to lose! They are just the handiest things - but they go missing for me all the time.... Buy some extra cards before you travel. Try them out before you go. Format them in your camera first!! They are cheap and you can NEVER EVER take too many pictures :) If this doesn't make sense at all -I can post screen shots later (probably tomorrow)

No question is "dumb" really. Well, I say that but I did have a customer once ask me where to send his car payment. I told him to GMAC. He asked me how to spell that. You can't make that stuff up........So ask away here or go to the official daylily society site the American Hemerocallis Society (Hemerocallis is the botanic latin name for daylilies). I'm sure they have a FAQ column. Maryl American Hemerocallis Society
