Yes usually water and especially standing water

I did see a wasp on one of them. I wonder if they could do that. Thanks for the help.

Funny!! I am new to fruit trees and just don't know enough about what that means.

Here is a picture of my plum... nectaplum actually. Why does it look like it is a mosaic? Thanks, Ellie

I've heard that sun berries and wonder berries are the same thing. Could be wrong... I also planted some for the first time. My but they do grow well. They already have berries on them. I understand that you are supposed to wait until they are glossy then go dull before you harvest them. It...

I am in zone 9 and planted some in the fall. I also planted some today and I am sure that they will do well. Don't know if that helps.

Mine lasted four or five years, but the lady where I buy the plants say that is a little unusual. They usually last two to three years. I think it is because I put them in holes in black plastic and water them three times a day. I live where it is very hot.

What Pat said, and further, peppers take longer to germinate than peppers. Just wait and see!!!

I say go for it. I planted mine in January and they are looking good, but if you plant them now, you may just do well. Hey, you could at least plant a few cloves to see how they do.

The seem to adore upright Rosemary. You can plant it as a hedge or in with some of the other plants mentioned. It smells good too :)

Once mine are up, I discontinue any bottom heat if I was using it. They actually like cooler temps as they grow into our beloved little plants. Not cold, just not at the warm germinating temps.

I find that they need warmth as said, but they don't need light until they are up. You can put them on top of a freezer, water heater, refrigerator (mine is cold, though) or something. Peppers need bottom warmth, from what I have learned. They also take a little longer to come up, sometimes...

Just to add my two cents: You can use a heating pad on low under seedlings if you want. Peppers do adore the bottom heat, and tomatoes like it but will do fine without it as posters have said. Be sure to put a plastic bag over the heating pad because of water. I use the top of my freezer...

Thanks, I am just amazed by this warm weather and have had to water my stuff when usually I don't. I think I will giv it some water today.

Hi, I put my garlic in a month ago, but the weather has hovered in the upper 60's. Now it was 77 today! Should I water the garlic or wait for the rains which will come? Last year I put it in the ground in December and it was already raining. It will be in the high 70's again tomorrow and...

This is great news. I thank you for the information.

Thanks very much. I am just building mine in a couple of weekends and am reading everything I can.

Thanks, I have never grown it before. I live in a very hot climate and it is between 96 and 105 degrees this week. I was worried that maybe that was all I would get..... leaves. Ellie

Can I throw the filter in with the coffee grounds? Thanks, Ellie

I have great big beautiful cabbage. Just no heads! Does cabbage grow from the inside out or outside in? The leaves are huge. The purple cabbage is great and has heads but not the green cabbage. Thanks, Ellie
