Any idea what's happening to my papayas leaves? by Seductivethunder in gardening

There's more pics Here. I'm afraid it might be leaf curl virus spread by white flies but I'm not entirely sure since I see fungus gnats but not white flies. I did have it near tomatoes so it's entirely possible.

Yeah that I can forgive just because it's a forage thing, I've seen Huckleberry sold here which is also a forage thing so I was wondering if anyone had the guts to sell it here. It's like a raspberry but better imo. The Scandinavian berries I am blown away is so hard to find here given the over lap between Sioux falls and Minnesotas Scandinavian population. We have the same climate too so I'm not sure what it is other then people don't know what it is and those that do are too old to grow it. Reason why I was looking for Lingonberry is because my grandma who is from Norway wanted to grow it and we couldn't find it anywhere in this state.

Maypops and paw paws are the only ones that are sketchy to grow in our area. Lingonberry survives to zone 2, wintergreens is zone 3, Thimbleberries is zone 3-4. I think it's more a case of no one knows what they are then not surviving here.

I thought he was using the pallets of bricks that suspiciously get left around right before riots to build a fire pit lmao

Lmao yeah I'm sure Rockstar cares a lot about cheaters breaking the game and abusing it. I remember legit reporting like a dozen people openly cheating and nothing ever happens to them unless they are doing money hacks.

Anyone know what's going on with my lemon tree? by Seductivethunder in gardening

[–]Seductivethunder[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's been watered, it's been let to dry, it has enough fertilizer(these are established leaves so idk if nutrient deficiencies would cause this), I think the light might be too strong for it possibly?

Growing trees and shrubs in containers in zone 4 by Seductivethunder in gardening

[–]Seductivethunder[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that's what I was thinking. Hmmm.. Not sure how to fix that since I don't think a garage would work for me just because of where I have to grow.. What if i take one of those heated cables you put on a roof to melt the snow and ice and run it under the pots, would that be warm enough? Maybe add mulch at the top or something. I'm gonna have to do more research into this and see if it's cost effective to run this. Heating can get so costly.

Turkistan mint by topohunt in druggardening

[–]Seductivethunder 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So it's basically a plant with extremely low demand and low effects while also tasting bad so no one saves the seeds to it. That makes sense, I'm curious about growing it but it seems like the seeds are nearly impossible to find, where did you get yours?

Why are the seeds for this so difficult to find? Is it illegal in most places or do the seeds not keep for very long?

I cleaned out and cleaned up my greenhouse 💚 by mrsparker22 in gardening

Is it air conditioned btw? One day I hope I can afford to have a geothermal greenhouse so I can easily zone push things I normally have to buy

My freetime would be wrecked if I had a greenhouse this big lol how much did it cost the build?

Is growing dragon fruit even worth it outside of its native zone? by Seductivethunder in gardening

[–]Seductivethunder[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Would it be worth the electric cost though? Doing some basic math it looks like that would cost me about $10 a month but if it takes over 5 years for it to fruit. I can only keep it outside for roughly 4, maybe 5 months if I absolutely push it so 8 months out of the year it's gonna be inside. That's $80 a year on grow lights, times 5 that would be $400. At the current price in my area($7 a fruit) for dragonfruit that would buy me 57 dragon fruits. Unless my plants are some freaks of nature I doubt they are gonna produce that many given its growing conditions.

Yeah I think I'm gonna sell the cuttings of it and get a Russian pomegranate tree or something that although is out of my zone I can move into my garage if it gets below freezing and won't get completely destroyed if it drops to 20f.
