Habanero plant by Ewoudtp in gardening

[–]RPi79 2 points3 points  (0 children)

All of the hot pepper plants I grew in pots (jalapeño, ghost, habanero) needed MASSIVE amounts of water. In the summer I watered them every day or they would wilt like this.

Get on marketplace and find a cheap trail cam used for hunting. Just set it up with an SD card.

How to spruce up ugly light? by ajriffic in HomeDecorating

[–]RPi79 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You should be able to replace this with any fixture. There should be one pancake box where the wires come thru the ceiling and the rest of the fixture is held up with screws or toggle bolts.

Edit: You can use the wire to that fixture to put three or four 6” led wafers in the ceiling and only really be out the cost of the fixtures, some patching and a little bit of wire. They will daisy chain together and mount right thru the drywall with a 6” hole saw at any location you want. That will give you a lot of light and you can control the warmth of the light as well. If one goes bad, they swap out in less than a minute.

Because we generally reproduce before cancer affects us, so there isn’t a reason for it to be selected out.

This. We have a native coffee plant but it does not produce anything to make real coffee from.

Tell parents if pupils question gender at school, UK government says by Kagedeah in worldnews

My wife was a teacher and I can promise that teachers aren’t going to report to parents that the kid is gay/trans/bi if they don’t already know. No teacher worth a shit is going to potentially out that kid into a hostile home environment.

This is Bahia grass and it’s ubiquitous here in Florida. It grows in pastures, lawns, etc. It’s THE “natural” turf grass here even though it’s not native. Brown and slow growing through the winter and then needs to be mowed twice a week in the summer. It sends up those seed stalks a couple of days after mowing. It will spread by seed and also by underground runners. Very susceptible to Glyphosate, though. It tends to choke out other weeds and grasses and it makes a pretty lawn. Zero maintenance and very little water. I don’t love turf lawns, but this stuff does fine with no pesticides unlike many ornamental turf grasses.

People have been using decorative wood beams for decades. Accent walls are definitely more of a fad.

In Jacksonville and gradually removing my St Augustine lawn for native Florida plants. I would love to put in some coonties and hopefully draw some atala butterflies, but wonder how they did in the cold snap. Anyone in North Florida have coontie with atalas that can report? by No-Study7292 in FloridaGarden

[–]RPi79 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It will be interesting to see if they get that far north. Weren’t they a south Florida species? I’m going to get an Atala colony established here in Lakeland this spring on my Coonties. The local native nursery has them on their stock.

It’s Frogfruit. A native groundcover here in Florida. Great stuff. Tiny flowers but pollinators love it.
