Luke411, Start your own new thread to post the pictures in. That way advice specific to your situation won't get mixed up with advice for hrhcsh, and, you will get the feedback notices from Gardenweb instead of them going to hrhcsh. Here's info about posting pictures.... One of the easiest ways to provide your photo to be embedded into a post is to upload it onto an image hosting site such as Photobucket, Flickr, etc. That should be pretty straight forward, and the individual sites will give instructions on how to get your photos uploaded to their site when you sign up. Once your picture has been uploaded, find its image location address (URL) by right clicking on the image and copying the image location. Some sites may even provide the appropriate HTML code in a text box below the photo for your convenience. It will be the one that begins with a href=... Let's say, as an example, that the address of the picture you want to post is http://somepicturesite.com/yourpicture.jpg To embed the picture into a post, use the command: img src="http://somepicturesite.com/yourpicture.jpg"> _____________________________________ If your picture is too large to fit nicely into the text page, you can add a width attribute. The command with the width attribute would look something like: img src="http://somepicturesite.com/yourpicture.jpg" width=600> _____________________________________ Another option is to use a text link which might be beneficial to people on slow connections. To do this, use the command: a href="http://somepicturesite.com/yourpicture.jpg">your text goes here/a> _____________________________________ Note that I had to use special characters to get the commands above to show up here without turning into pictures, but you can use them as shown (with the correct image web address, of course).

A friend gave me a container fig tree, he says was from Greece. I replanted it in the ground here in Ohio. It grew to about 7 Ft. tall this summer and produced some figs. I do not know the name of the fig. Does anybody know the type I have? The inside is a reddish purple and sweet. (I don't have a pic of the inside)

Try to get information in the houseplant section.

Typically, lack of humidity is the culprit. Spider mites like it warm and dry......the usual conditions indoors. I have no idea how big your fig is but hosing or spraying it down with water periodically (like once a week) will help. So will spraying with a horticultural oil like neem oil. Neem oil is a particularly effective miticide.
