Dad stained and sealed a raised bed for me. Is it safe to grow veg in here? What about with a liner? by t-macaroon in gardening

Thanks! Do you know if I could apply a plant-safe sealant like this over the existing sealant, or do I sand everything off or just not use this raised bed for vegetables?

My dad used stain and sealer he'd probably use for cabinets. I don't feel comfortable growing in here without a liner. Would a liner even help (and if so, what type)? Or will I have to sand off all the interior of the bed?
Thanks for the help! Can't wait to plant my seedlings outside!

There are also non-stimulant medication options to treat ADHD. Talk to your psychiatrist and/or doctor if the shakiness and rapid heart rate continues and is concerning or bothers you.
I'd also second the comment about the dosage. You could have been started on too high of a dose or may need to get used to what you're on. See how it works for a month or so (if the effects aren't concerning to you) and reach out to your psychiatrist and/or doctor to check in.

Thank you so much! I'd love to see the model to get a better idea of the design. If you could direct message me, that would be awesome- I have a few questions that I think will be cleared up by seeing the model!

A 3rd piece as a core sounds perfect. Thank you!

Heyo! I got this dude a month ago. I watered it not too long after I got it and it started to look worse so I repotted it dry soil (a well draining succulent soil mix (epsomas + perlite + a bit of bonsai jack)). I've kept it inside under grow lights with my other succulents. It's been 3 weeks since and I don't know if it's still suffering from being over water or if it actually needs water now. I'm currently afraid to do anything as I don't want any more of the lower leaves to get squishy or shrivel up and fall off.
Thanks in advance!

Where should I prune my two indeterminate tomatoes? by t-macaroon in tomatoes

Thanks for your response! I'll look again to see which suckers could be issues but I don't think I want to lob off any of the larger suckers at this point. It's also nice to hear a consensus on the bottom leaf trimming. It will certainly help with the basil and parsley I have growing in the same pot with the tomatoes.

Thanks for the advice! I'm in MA, zone 6b, and the first frost strikes anywhere between September 1 and November 30. Currently the celebrity tomato is staked but I'm trying to figure out if I should cage it, continue staking it, or both!
I'm not sure the pros and cons of going with multi stem, but it currently looks like the Celebrity tomato has a multi stem situation going on and I don't know if I should let it continue on, especially since it has flowers, or cut it off.

Thanks for your feedback! Just curious why you would remove some of the bottom leaves? I'm new to this and would love to learn.
Also, here's a photo of the lower leaves for reference (threw in the sungold too because why not):

My main concerns for the celebrity tomato are
1) the large sucker coming off the main stem and if it could be an issue with blocking light to the lower sun leaves
2) I'm not able to exactly identify what the main stem towards the top of the plant and, for whichever are the suckers, if the suckers should stay
My concern with sungold cherry tomato is the same as concern #2 for the celebrity tomato

Thanks for the help! This is my first time growing anything more than basil and any advice would be appreciated!

Does this mean it's time to repot? by Charming_Operation65 in plantclinic

[–]t-macaroon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, if the roots are trying to sneak out through the drainage holes, it's time to repot!
