Lurker needs advice on moving from Pa. to Ga.
Comments (11)Dan, hi, I'm living in Georgia, the NE part (for the last 24 years). Welcome to the (madness)forum, and stop by my place, and pick up lots more cuttings on your way to south Georgia, if you make the move. Kylie That was my first thought- lots of cuttings taken and rooted in a small space. Mary's method. She uses spagnum moss, I believe and several layers of plack plastic. I can't remember if she uses rooting hormone or not. Lays all the cutting bottoms/ends down on a layer of slightly dampened moss that is laying on top of the plastic. Cuttings not touching an inch or two apart. Rolls the whole thing up, starting at one end, like a jelly roll. The ends of the cuttings stick out one end of the "roll". Then she sets it up in the corner, and ............???? What??? Do we have a link? I can't believe I have not used this method. Who has??? Brenda...See Moreinfo on moving Clematis
Comments (3)Hi brightmoregirl,you should have no problem moving your clems.The only bummer is that it will set you back a year on the flowering.I would do just as mamoo said be sure to get as much of the rootball as you can and have the new hole all ready to go.Clematis are tough plants when they get past the first couple years so they should be fine.I removed some Huldines when I worked at chalk hill and the rootballs were so big I had to use a small backhoe to dig them up after I dug them up I let them sit there outside thier holes roots showing and no water.A few stayed like that for a couple weeks before I chopped the roots off and potted them up in 5 gal pots.All did fine and were sold as nice plants....See MoreMoving to Bend, Oregon - tomatoes?
Comments (2)Beer-vana, yes. I had some fine porters and IPAs when we were checking the place out last month. 300 days of sunshine? That appears to be a chamber of commerce/realtor's association myth, unless one counts 15 minutes of sun as a "day." This from The Source Weekly, a publication in Bend. See http://www.tsweekly.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=2779&Itemid=153 That notwithstanding, we're-a gonna be loading up the wagons and settlin' there in August. I'll miss this growing season, so next spring is my next available chance to grow tomatoes. In the meantime, I'm going to look into what my small greenhouse options are. All I want to grow are four bushes in containers, so I don't need anything large. Someone's got to make some inexpensive kits....See MoreMoving soon......need helpful insight. Long!
Comments (34)In cased you missed the map that was shown on TV for days following the 2004 election, most states are shaded red and only a few are shaded in blue. The blue states are shoved off into a corner and they are very expensive places to live and not overloaded with opportunities. So if you are like me, you have to find a place where you can enjoy the what the area has to offer and not let the political views of the majority get to you. The OP's viewpoints seem somewhat libertarian and then somewhat republican but who cares? Nobody. You can move to just about anywhere and nobody will shove their political views down your throat. Not even here do they do that. If I wanted to I could meet up with anoy political party that interested me but since I am not into politics I will go back to just enjoying the scenery and low cost of living, being close to good shopping and relatively OK driving distance to the big urban core where I can walk around for a few minutes or have a nice meal, feel like I stepped into the twilight zone then hop in the truck come back home where you can have a big property with horses and fire guns and play cowboys & indians and do whatever it is you please til the cows come home. The Knoxville area does come across as an area where this would be possible too so I'd say look at Knoxville....See MoreIdeefixe
