Any idea what’s after the strawberries? I’ve hit them with neem oil. Soil is very high in ph (7.26). Any way to quickly adjust? One of the plants seems stalled, the other is sending runners. They aren’t flowering anymore. https://i.imgur.com/AivVWKz.jpeg [img]https://i.imgur.com/ctAyhp2....
It’s crushing to think how different things could have been with Star Wars. TFA was a competent film that was completely undone (as was the OT) by TLJ. It’s been a train wreck since. I got to the point, where it was hard to not watch the train continue to wreck over itself. I almost got satisfact...

I have a section of fence with it. Growing up we had an entire fence with both confederate and Carolina jasmine staggered. They bloomed at different times, and the rest of the year it was a nice green hedge. If you have to trim, do so after the Carolina blooms (I think it blooms after confed...

[quote]feel like container gardening is just hard. You're trying to maintain soil and nutrient quality that changes so quickly. Plants will suck up nutrients fast. And when you water, you're washing some of it out anyway.[/quote] Yeah my squash trap plants are in pots. I fed them the same amount of...
[quote]give CGI animals the raw facial emotions that animation can, it won't be as good.[/quote] I agree which is why I don’t understand why Jungle Book was so good. This scene feels more natural to me than the later singing CGI animals of future Disney remakes. No other live action remake has met ...

My 8-yo found my old Garfield books and he’s obsessed with it now. Just found out there’s a new movie out next month. This looks fun… my son was cracking up during the trailer. Chris does a pretty good Garfield voice. [embed]https://youtu.be/IeFWNtMo1Fs?feature=shared[/embed]...
