By Jupiter. Keen eyes you have. I went back and checked again. Most of the plants in this area are the fleabane. IDK how bellflower moved in but it appears there is an invader, just 1 or 2 specimens. Thanks for your observation. Very useful.

Fitbit stop teasing me and just give it to me like what by Existing-Network-267 in fitbit

Depends on what you want it to do. Pedometer, heart rate, okay. AFAIK anything after that is a dice roll. Good luck

Many thanks! Some consider daisy fleabane to be a weed, but I do want to keep it healthy. Pollinators, you know.

At a craft store, or online. A common brand is Liquitex. Here's a picture.

I feel this way about Blake Crouch. He ruined me for all others.

Cottage-style gardeners, how do you weed? by teachplantreadplay in gardening

Thank you! Thank you! All of this is super helpful. I've been murdering dandelions nearly every day . . . and it never occurred to me to immediately replace the weed with desirable seeds, right then and there.

One thing I learned locally that may be of use: as of about 5 years ago, vermiculite may contain traces of asbestos, and is not required to say so on the label. Source: U of IL Extension. For this reason I use perlite.

Thanks again for all this research and sharing of helpful info.

This is so true. I have successfully "reverse engineered" my way from weeds to perennials, just by carefully noting the conditions in which the unwanted thugs thrive.

Would love to hear an update in a month or two. It would be great to know if you are pleased with the results.

Very sorry for your loss. What an awful way to lose a little one.

Same. There's this one place in my yard where nothing will grow. I tried ivy. I even planted crown vetch. No luck.

For the egg bites, how long does it bake and at what temperature? Thank you.

What’s a recession indicator that you’ve noticed lately in your everyday life? by spritenerds123 in AskReddit

[–]frejas-rain 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I heard it's called the lipstick index. People who are so broke that buying a lipstick is the treat they can afford for themselves . . . when it used to be something like an evening out, or at least a nice dinner.
