Good news and bad news. The good - - My Meyer lemon is bursting its bud in new growth. The bad - - None of the buds are flower buds. These two Meyers are the only citrus trees of mine that are of breeding age. The small Meyer lemon is behind the better an I am unable to pick it out. Steve

Proudgm, you can save any pics to there, if it's in PB already then there is a link that says "copy to my album" and it will put it there. As far as other sites, I know there is a way to upload them to PB from your album, I think you would just put the web address in it, I've never done it before. Also as Tracy pointed out above: Vic, one thing I would like to add about setting up your own photobucket account is that you can create your own folders for it too. I have several different sub albums in my account for family pics, garden shots, then sub albums for each of my individual gardens, clematis, lilies, daylilies and then keep a separate album for all web art I find that I want to use again or edit/personalize. I like keeping them separated so if I do a search I can find what I'm looking for pretty quickly. It is a pretty neat site and they just recently expanded some of their editing tools so you can add comments and funny designs to the pictures too. I've started part 3 so we don't have to wear our mouses out scrolling the page : )

no mine are not stacked but they do have the kit to stack them I saw on their website. I have done loads of various sizes and all in all the time is pretty close to what it was on my old top loaders, on the FL the wash takes longer in general I would say 50 mins but the dryer is very fast so takes much less time there. I usually dry mine on the less dry setting and even when doing a load of sweats and towels only had 2 items that had to be put back for a few more minutes. Yes I do my sheets and comforters, I follow the advice from the website and add some towels in with it so that there is less twisting. I have not had any problems with wadding or twisting so far. I had been worried about it since I read so much about that happening, but in reality it always happened in my old set so I expected it to happen in the new ones to some degree. Mine are set on my tile floor which is on a solid concrete foundation and I have no vibration. I do not have pedestals.

Where are you? What zone? How long have they been in the ground? How are you caring for them? #1, when you first plant a tree, it spends the first year mostly making roots and getting established. The rule of thumb for all perennials, trees included, is that they sleep the first year (making roots, not putting out too much top growth), creep the second year and leap the third year. #2, in this heat, some plants tend to go into what we call "summer dormancy," where they stop growing altogether. This is to conserve their energy, just like plants wilt to conserve water. I don't know when your trees were planted, but it's best to plant tree in the fall (October is the month of choice), so they have a chance to grow roots and get established over the winter so they are strong and ready to grow in the spring and summer. It's not unusual at all for plants planted in the summer to not grow.
