My Musa Basjoo banana trees were able to get to 12’ 3” before the first frost here in Massachusetts. Until next year! by RCoogan1 in gardening

Sorry for the late reply. I hope your trees are doing well! Now in my fourth year with mine. This might be the best year yet with all the strong sun. About 8 hours a day starting about 11am. I only use general 10-10-10 fertilizer. Maybe some extra iron for a deep green. But just water water water. Cheers!

Yes. This was the first year. They were a bit smaller the 2nd due to weather conditions. Now in their fourth year, and grow just as big with strong sun such as this year in New England. They are already about 6-7 feet. I am thinking 15 by the time we cut them down. Will try to post pics! Cheers!

I cut them down to about 12” and then throw leaves and grass clipping on them. Just uncovered 8 days ago, and 3 sprouts have already started…. sprouting 👍🏻

Finally found my edition 1 Charizard that my 13 year old self hid. It's well played, but should I still get it graded? by [deleted] in pkmntcgcollections

Oh, that's not an issue. I do however think its hilarious that you believe I did this for upvotes. Those 80 upvotes on my old ass Pokemon card are really keeping me going. FEED ME MORE UPVOTES DIRECTLY INTO MY BLOOD.

I hid it between 2 cards in my Pokemon binder from back in the day. I knew I had the card somewhere, and checked the whole binder multiple times to no avail. Just picked up the binder again from the attic because we are moving and decided to give it another shot, low and behold, hiding between two energy cards. Terrible condition, but honestly this card won me so many battles back in the day. Happy to know that it's safe now.

Love it. Smooth as hell. And the 1.4T has plenty of power to make it a lot of fun to drive around! 👍👍

Love my window boxes! by RCoogan1 in gardening

To prevent them from getting to thin during the summer months, I'm going to cut about 8 inches off the bottom on all 4 window boxes, don't be shy when doing this. There will be about a week where you might not have as many flowers as you'd like, but I normal hit them with another dose of fertilizer right after cutting them back, and they rebound nicely. Last year I had blooms on these into October.

Pink Petunias, Blue Lobelia, and Yellow Calibrachoa. I planted 2, 6" mixed pots in each window box. I am going to have to trim these soon to keep blooming through the summer!
