What do I do when my wife makes commesnts to me , that I would never make to her?

Question by greendonkey34: What do I do when my wife makes commesnts to me , that I would never make to her?
It seems she never is very supportive of anything I do. Right now I am trying to start a lawn service and she has fought tooth and nail on this matter. She makes comments like “you’re a 40 year old man still trying to mow lawns”. I am really only 35 BTW ( and she knows that). I would never hurt my wife’s feelings the way she hurts mine. Your thoughts?

Q&A: What is Twitter????????

Question by : What is Twitter????????
I understand it all completely.
except
What I do not understand is this…when you say you are doing something at the moment…you are not really doing it…I mean like…

Let’s say you are drinking milk. Do you go onto Twitter and type down you are drinking milk? Because you are not doing that…you are typing, not drinking milk?
And when you are mowing the lawn…do you go onto twitter and type down “Mowing Lawn”? Because you are not really doing that…you are on the computer typing that, which you are not really doing.

I don’t know…?

Q&A: How do I begin a new veg/heb garden in an already estabished gardening bed?

Question by new to gardening: How do I begin a new veg/heb garden in an already estabished gardening bed?
I just bought a house with great gardening beds. The only issue is I’m new to gardening and would like to get rid all the plants currently growing there to add new ones. I’d like to pot the rosemary instead of having it on the bed because it seems so invasive. The tomato plants seem to be done for the season. Do I pull them? There are also strawberries, thyme, and others I have no idea what they are.

Best answer:

Answer by Kat
You can transplant many of the already existing herbs into pots but spring time is the best time to do this for the best survival of the plants. The tomatoes are most likely done for the year so, yes go ahead and pull them. Since you are new to gardening a bit of research on what plants grow best in your area and their up keep would be the best option for you. Also you may want to find out what the unknown plants are before removing them. Check around your neighborhood and see what others have in their gardens, talking to someone in a garden nursery may help you as well. But before all that, sit and ponder on what you want in color and up keep so you have a good idea of what will work best for you.

I haven’t been in a garden for over 10 years. I was wondering what is the best way to care for Gardenias.?

Question by Missy: I haven’t been in a garden for over 10 years. I was wondering what is the best way to care for Gardenias.?
I want them to grow big and I want them to have the beautiful fragrance they are known for. Any green thumbs out there?

Best answer:

Answer by Joey Blunt
In order to get a gardenia to bloom, there are four things to remember about proper gardenia care. These are:

* Humidity
* Sunlight
* Temperature
* Fertilizer

Humidity – Care of a gardenia bush means providing lots of humidity. If your gardenia is in a container, setting the container on a dish filled with pebbles and water will help to increase the surrounding humidity. Whether your gardenia bush is planted in the ground or in a container, daily misting with a spray bottle will increase the humidity around the plant.

Sunlight – Taking care of a gardenia bush also involves making sure that the plant gets proper sunlight. An outdoor gardenia should be planted in a sunny location that is shaded somewhat during the hottest part of the day. For indoor gardenia bushes, place the gardenia in a bight light location but not in direct light.

Temperature – Gardenias bloom best in when the daytime temperatures are warm but not hot and the nighttime temperatures are cool. Ideally, for the day, you want the temperatures to be between 65F to 75F during the day and between 55F and 60F at night. For proper gardenia care, make sure that your plant is in an area where the temperatures will match this pattern.

Fertilizer – A gardenia bush is a heavy feeder. Proper care and feeding gardenia means that you should be fertilizing your gardenia every two weeks with a regular water soluble fertilizer solution. Once every three to four months, fetilize your gardenia with an acid based fertilizer.

Gardenia care can be time consuming, but the gardenia blooms are certainly worth the effort. Taking care of a gardenia properly will reward you with the lovely and heavenly scented flowers that make gardenias so special. Care and feeding gardenia bushes is all it takes.

Good Luck.
Joe

Best answer:

Answer by Kate
There is no stopping pigeons, but if your rabbit is outside, why don’t you take it in? It will be much happier and will be away from pigeons.

Best answer:

Answer by MWF•GenX•CO•USA
This is what you want to do… find a mentor. A neighbor, a friend, a relative, someone who lives near you and is a green thumb. Not only will they give you great advice geared towards your climate zone, they will probably also give you all kinds of clippings and plantings to use in your own garden!

Question by shirley s: How do you care for call lily in Maine? I have it out side in garden?

Best answer:

Answer by Cat
If you mean a Calla Lily…the most important thing to know is that it’s not winter-hardy. You’ll need to lift it and bring it inside before winter. Store in a cool dark place (like an unheated basement) for the winter.

I have just started a rose garden, and I would like secrets or tips to “old timer” care and love for my roses

Question by mello1975: I have just started a rose garden, and I would like secrets or tips to “old timer” care and love for my roses
any suggestions such as, my grannie used to use cornmeal, sugar and can’t remember what else, and her mind is getting kind of forgetful.

Thank you

Best answer:

Answer by Kris L
Do you or your neighbors have a barbecue? Get ALL of the ashes you can, and spread those under the roses and water them in … you won’t need to use any other ‘food’ and the roses will have nice leaves and AMAZING flowers … and best of all, it’s FREE … put ashes down at least once every two weeks through the ‘budding and blooming’ but stop in the fall so the plants can ‘rest’ and be pruned next spring.
