The Kitchen Table

Other Forums

I really love KT. I read it every day, and contribute whenever I can, but I wonder if anyone on KT knows of other forums that are NOT GARDEN WEB, that are similar to this one? I mean a board where everything is discussed, and there is lots of daily activity. I really enjoy reading KT, and would love to find some other similar discussion boards.

I enjoy several forums on GW and have been given some good advice, especially from the Computer Forum. Good advice on Buying and Selling have saved some people money. We can read and make our own decisions. We learn that there is valuable advice for all of us from many informed, trained and talented people.

I know several people who enjoy Reddit.com. They say it covers tons of topics. I haven't checked it out.

Conflicting informations on other forums
Q

The issue is too complicated to give you simple answers that would apply in all situations. What that means is your question is too broad and complicated to answer here, since you asked so many of these questions. Two different people can give you seemingly conflicting answers and they can both be right. For example, the issue of how much light a citrus needs is a little complicated. It depends. And it also depends exactly what someone means by "more light" or "less light". A plant that's given a little shade in a desert climate could still be getting more light than a plant in a cloudy more northern climate. But a person would probably not realize it. In a hot dry climate where the amount of water the plant can suck up is limited (or the root space is limited because it's in a container), or it's a very small plant, the plant will usually grow better with less sunlight, because there will be less water stress. The exact optimum "amount of light" is difficult to pinpoint.

search function for themes in "perennials" (or other forums)?
Q
Comments (7)
Lin, that same search format exists....at least in GardenWeb. Since I am never on the Houzz platform itself, I have no idea if it works the same. You DO need to be in the forum you are searching. You type in your search terms in the box as indicated but confirm that your are searching only in Perennials before hitting enter as you are given other options. Here is a search I did for "dry shade": https://www.gardenweb.com/discussions/peren/query/perennials-for-dry-shade/nqrw And another for "orange flowers": https://www.gardenweb.com/discussions/peren/query/perennials-with-orange-flowers/nqrw

Do a Google search on a subject your interested in. It can be something like family forums, senior ladies forums, womens message boards etc....... I've found many that way.

Try Home Talk.

I don't post or read there because I already spend too much time here.

Here is a link that might be useful: Home Talk

There is another forum that former members have joined. I spend too much time here, as Graywings said, so I have no intention of joining. I did have a lookie once and I find this one more interesting.
IMO that might be the forum that is calling us old biddies. So be it.

Most forums have an "off topic" or general discussion board. I like the Off Topic board at a forum called The Dish which is mostly for those interested in soap making and other bath and body products. You have to be a member of the board to even see the off topic board so you have to join which is no big deal. But be warned, you better put on your big girl panties if you plan on participating...HEEHEE!

Jasdip, what is the name of the forum you described in your post? I'd like to take a look at it and maybe join.

Jasdip, if you are talking about the forum that I think you are talking about, no one over there called this place "the old biddies' forum".

Thanks Marilyn. I know that members did talk about this forum, and members here at one time. Maybe things have changed.

I don't remember the name of the forum at all, Shelgal.

Another forum that has every kind of topic is

http://www.city-data.com/forum/

I haven't had the time to check it out thoroughly yet.

shelgal, I don't think anyone is going to volunteer the name of the Forum That Must Not Be Named.

Must be a serious reason for the silence about "The Forum That Must Not Be Named." Murdre? Cannibalism? Bad Hair?
