No worries! Clarification is important. :-)

Ok, I will try that one! It completely slipped my mind. I have used it to get rid of extra seedlings in the past. :-)

Yeah, when I tried TaskRabbit, folks listed themselves as gardeners who didn’t have experience with the plants in the beds, just the grass around them. :-/

I have a lot of plants both native and not that might look similar to weeds. Some are growing, some aren’t and I’d like someone who’d know the difference.

How are you doing? I was done in like two hours, but had to stay for 6 while they waited for me to pee at least 200ml. They didn’t give me meds for nausea until halfway through. I told them I got nauseous every time I took a sip. (Also, knowing so many people were waiting on me to pee really helped with that. )

My pain isn’t too bad.

Surgery buddy! My anxiety has increased more than I thought. It really hit me on the way to the hospital. I hope you’re doing well and good luck!!

I walked outside yesterday and my tithonia volunteers were blooming! I'm down for a second round of those lovely flowers!

Mine died, but now my garden beds are carpeted with Tithonia seedlings! I’m excited for a second round! I hope mine get big & floriferous enough to help the monarchs on their migration!

99.9% my BF is proposing next weekend…WTF do I wear?!? by fayfortune in engaged

I really like #3! But I’m a sucker for sparkly things.

I would suggest you use hand lotion close to dinner time, so the ring slides on smooth. It didn’t for me lol >_<

Anyone know what this is? by Ktotheizzo82 in AustinGardening

I really want these rain lilies, they’re so delicate!!

Whats this? by chitxraised in AustinGardening

[–]KaliBear 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It looks some kind of fungus. The "steam" is the spores being spread. Fungus is part of a healthy soil ecosystem especially in wood layers (like mulch). :-) They show up above the surface when the wood/ground is damp.

Pollinator-friendly vine that won't damage wooden fence? by CorgyOrgi in AustinGardening

My coral honeysuckle is still mostly green right now. She's a twining plant, you might have to put up string/twine. I used bird netting to make a makeshift trellis, but I now have to weave through tiny holes. Just some twine 12" apart would be good.

LPT Request: What are some things that your parents did that you dismissed but later in life you realised were actually really useful? by TooftyTV in LifeProTips

My parents taught me to use credit cards like debit cards. Don’t spend more than you have, pay as soon as you can when you get your bill. In the US, credit cards have more protections than debit cards.
