That's odd? None of these were red? These were all light brown with webs on the leaves?

If it doesn't make it, oh well. How odd! Everywhere I read it said that humid conditions caused the infestations. The plant looks a smidge better but I'm sure it's my imagination. I have sole purple passion plants in the other room. Will this spread to them?!

Apparently it's just one huge cluster of problems. 1. Moved it to a darker room. Immediately it started getting darker leaves. 2. Stopped watering it so much. Leaves turned brown and drooped. 3. Upon closer inspection, I see spider mites all over it. Tried soapy water. Looks like I sprayed it...

I bought a prayer plant on its last legs from Lowes. It did great when I replanted and actually started growing several new leaves. About 2 months later, the leaves don't reach skyward anymore and are droopy. I moved it closer to the window and it started turning brown on the edges. I moved...

Mine don't actually close, they just point upwards. Are they supposed to close completely? I just replanted into a bigger pot about a month ago. They were in a tiny pot. It is possible that some light from the living room is spilling in on it?

I am having a slight issue with my prayer plant. It used to fold its leaves up so nicely each night. Now, for the past 3 days, it hasn't folded them up. The leaves look healthy except the ones towards the base of the pot are just "flopped" over. Is there anything I can do? I water nightly...

I've been put in charge of the plants for our bank...but I have no idea what they are? 1. 2. 3. 4. Thanks for any help!! Gotta find info to care for them!

How far do I cut them back once the flowers all die off?

These had already made it over a winter. This is my first year with them, even though the previous homeowners had them, I just don't know what to do. I've never successfully had flowers...

Will they still live? I've been taking the ones that are "snapped" or "broken" from the plant and using them in vases. Figure why waste them? What do I need to do to keep them healthy during the winter? Do I need to prune them? I've been dead-heading them. They were about 3 feet wide before...

My mums have done this to me: It snowed and ALL of them flopped over. Is there anything I can do to save them? They are all on the ground. These photos were from today. Thanks for any help!

I can take a pic once my knee stops acting up. I'll have to take a pic of the package though.

When you say bury, do you mean in a bucket and space them out in the sand? Or do you put them in a bucket and pour sand overtop of them? Can you store them in the basement?

gardentoad, I moved up to PA. It's mostly shale up here, but the previous owner put manure after manure into this garden on a yearly basis. It's very loose and very rich. I've pulled up everything but my turnips now. The tomatoes were starting to rot on the vines from the wet weather. Made a...

I found some DARK purple ones that could be black! I LOVE purple. And these will really pop with the dark purple that's already growing in the yard! Got them at Lowe's for $7.00! Woohoo!

No more corn. Everything wants to eat the corn, once the corn is pulled the bugs are already there so they start eating everything else! No more lettuce, I prefer spinach, but only one row of spinach this time. Let's see...will grow onions, probably from the bulbs again. Was able to grow them...

I have some turnips growing outside. The tops are probably 12" tall. I can see the roots poking up just above the soil. They are the purple top with white bottom ones. The person I got seeds from said they can grow to be 6" across. Do I need to fertilize these with liquid fertilizer? They are...

Already Sevined it. You wouldn't BELIEVE the amount of stink bugs that came over from the cut down corn. I'd put my hand on one tomato and wind up with 5 bugs crawling on me. I wash each tomato with soap and water before doing anything with it, so I'm not worried about the effects of the...

So..the "holes" are caused by the stinkbugs. Sevin will be used...and they shall die. But that doesn't explain the "bursting".

I carefully selected all of my tomatoes for salsa canning. Salsa is done and I would like to do my tomato paste canning... Thing is, almost all of my tomatoes have "burst" open while on the vine? Others have giant holes in them with a fungus-type thing growing. I was afraid it was blight, but...
