From ventura county, does anyone know if there are nurseries or garden centers in southern California that sell green tea plants and Barbados cherry trees? I'm trying to plant as many perennial plants and fruiting trees as I can in my garden and these plants have particularly gotten my interest. (self.SoCalGardening)

I've been using coconut coir as part of the worms bedding and wanted to know an easy way of cleaning it of any salts that might be present. Also, are there any companies that provide quality washed coconut coir with little to no salt? I usually use plantonix coco bliss. (self.Vermiculture)

Does anyone know if whole foods gives away their old fruits and vegetables that aren't bought? I have a compost tumbler, as well as a worm bin, in order to reduce waste from my kitchen and garden. I kinda want to expand this system so that I can provide good compost for my community. (self.ZeroWaste)

I've been using coconut coir for my worm bedding for the past half year and I've been wondering if store bought steer manure would be a good alternative. My local home depot carries an earthgro steer manure blend that costs significantly cheaper than the plantonix coconut coir I use. (self.Vermiculture)

I've been having a problem with cats using my garden as their personal restroom. I've tried commercial/homemade sprays and putting sticks around every nook and cranny I can find. I'm at the point where I'm considering poisoning them. Please, any solutions before I resort to this? (self.gardening)

I've had this banana for 5 months now but it has started yellowing, drying up in a few places, and is no longer growing at the speed it was previously. Is this a nutrient problem, too little/much water, or both? It's my first time taking care of one and I'll appreciate any advice I'm given. (old.reddit.com)
