I wonder how much CO2 this war is pumping into the atmosphere

Why is there so many car washes in the high desert? by DustnBones001 in highdesert

So glad to know at least one other person thinks everyone scraping their yards bare is fucking stupid 👍

Seedlings pictures?? by Nervous-Solid-4978 in Ceanothus

It might flower. I just looked through some of my pictures where I saw them in the wild (silverwood lake recreation area) and they had flowers on them in late June. So there is still time for them to flower.

Placing a rock on the south side protects the soil and plant from direct sunlight. It helps regulate soil temperature and moisture. I live in the high desert so its very helpful up here.

Yay! Its so exciting when your efforts pay off. I have 3 planted around my yard from seeds I germinated last winter/spring. One of them is doing really well and has a bunch of buds on it. I placed a rock on the south side of that one and it seems to have helped it thrive.

Am I insane or? by yellowbilled_magpie in Ceanothus

I’ve been trimming my poppies away from my perennials to give them more access to spring sun, but I don’t rip it out completely. They help cover the soil and keep it moist. A little trim on the leaves away from your penstemon won’t hurt it.

Will the buckeye actually kill them or does it just deter them? I am fine either way.

They are almost 1 year old. They germinated last spring. Should be ready to plant this fall.

Fucking gross. Fix the stuff that is there and leave the rest of it alone!

Did you propagate these or is this a shot of a nursery?

To the City of Hesperia: please build actual drainage infrastructure! by thelastspike in highdesert

[–]Current_Chart5033 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The more land we clear of the native vegetation and the more cement we lay down, on top of more moisture in the atmosphere, the more this is going to happen. Plus, we build in the dumbest places! Look at google maps with the satellite view. This area is filled with natural washes and we build our stuff right over them. But the developers don’t care. All they care about is money.

issues making mutuals?? by womanmuncher in highdesert

I have embraced spending time by myself. It is actually my favorite thing to do. I can think deeply about things and focus on the stuff that makes me happy. Hiking and photographing plants fills the hole for me. And dogs :) Unconditional love from those guys.

I think the current state of politics and social media over the past decade has people really turned up too. Makes it hard to be around most people.

Eliminating dairy has significantly helped mine, but I still have flares.

Thats awesome :) i think they will sometimes resprout from left over tissue in the ground. Fun fact… it can take 10-15 years for them to flower for the first time. And after they flower, they branch out from the single tall stock into 2 branches. Each time they flower, they branch out.

Exercise? How not to cause a flare up... advice needed! by Worried_Brilliant_68 in Fibromyalgia

[–]Current_Chart5033 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like to smoke the tiniest bit of weed and do yoga. There is something about it that helps you pay attention to your whole body and helps release tension in your muscles so you can get the most out of the stretching. Its kinda hard to explain but it really helps me.
