Hosta seedling worth saving?
Comments (6)Rustic, beautiful tones in your seedling! It brought to mind the colour of my Confused Angel when I first bought it. Steve, I would love a hosta with that particular dark colour - stunning and eye-catching placed among those contrasting hostas....See MoreAre these tomato seedlings worth saving?
Comments (10)I am planning on planting them outside next week. Chance of frost is very low in North Texas now. I do not have spares, but it won't be a big deal if I do end of losing these plants. The Sungold and SS100 plants (which are growing fine in the same conditions) grow so fast, I can easily replace the sicky Celebrities later. Also, rhoder, I really like your idea of using boiling water for the seed starting mix. I will try that next time I start seeds!...See MoreIs it worth saving my basil plants?
Comments (4)Glad to hear it! Sounds like you're in the clear! I was cautious on your basil since it has been having a major problem with basil downy mildew in the last few years. One of the symptoms is that they look yellow as if they have not been fertilized! The disease is a real nasty one -- like late blight of tomato, it can travel miles and miles on the wind, and no organic fungicides have been found to treat it. Although in the North it typically doesn't overwinter (so far) and it doesn't like cooler temperatures, lots of us buy our basil plants that are greenhouse-grown, and thus the possibility of its survival in the North and the cycle continuing exists. (Seed can also carry the disease.) I know Rutgers has been partnering to develop resistant varieties that are now for sale at wholesale level, but I'm not sure how far into the retail market they have managed to penetrate. Has anyone seen basil for sale yet that is marketed as disease resistant?...See MoreIs this backsplash worth saving?
Comments (10)they already are painted. you're going to pay someone to paint them again? what you need is decent lighting. who can see in there?? that is the worst lighting I think I've ever seen on here. at the very least, get something w/some light output. those dim bulbs aimed at the cabinets do nothing. spend the money for recessed lighting. first. if you change the backsplash, you might as well get rid of the laminate countertop. But then you're stuck w/old cabinets. so, no. redo your lighting. Save up your money until you can afford to do everything at once....See Morefaftris
