Citrus fruit looks like minature birds are pecking it?
Comments (5)That happens to my grapefruits, but I don't do anything. I have plenty that mature. I don't know what is causing it, but I don't use any pesticides on my property. The anoles take care of things. Citrus is the host plant of the Giant Swallowtail. The caterpillars feed on the leaves. If you spray, you could be killing potential butterflies. How old/large is your tree? Mine is about 12ft high....See MoreWhat bird sounds like a frog?
Comments (11)LOL! Yes tree frogs are incredibly loud! I had about 5-6 singing to each other yesterday evening in the back yard and I could hardly hear my family talking to me while out on the deck! They are really hard to find too. I have one that retires to a little ledge on the top of my shed every year.....same spot. He's so cute! I love going to sleep with my windows open so I can hear them, but sometimes, I just have to close the window 'cause they are sooooooo loud! They are pretty amazing little creatures. I think they are attracted to my backyard because I have several little water gardens. They deposit their eggs in the water. They are so sensitive to the presence of water, that if I go out to just water a few plants, they start singing! I don't know if they see the water, or just hear or smell it! Ain't nature grand? :)...See Moreh. Island Breeze (looking like a Bird of Paradise Plant)
Comments (5)It seems appropriate that a hosta named Island Breeze would try to look like a Bird of Paradise. I had a BoP at my last house, and it does resemble that. How exciting and shocking would it be if it flowered orange this year?...See MoreDoes this look like a Red Robin mini dwarf seedling?
Comments (8)stevie, in earlier comments on this thread, I explained that the plants are being grown under a a four tube grow light fixture. The T5 lights in this fixture are designed for growing plants, providing the proper color spectrum for strong plant growth, and I do grow the seedlings right up under the bulbs. I do not believe the problem, in my current situation, are the lights nor the placement of the seedlings under the lights. The stems on these seedlings are sturdy, it's just the height of the seedlings that caused me to think I might not be growing the specific dwarf tomato 'Red Robin'. I grew this tomato for the first time last year but didn't take photos so I've nothing to compare to this years growth. I began to question if the seed purchased as Red Robin this year is producing a Red Robin tomato plant so asked for a another set of eyes to take a look. Thank you for your interest. I learn so much from contributors here in the forums. Your advice regarding the conditions for growing good strong plants under lights is spot on but I don't think it applies to this situation.
