Could you plant them in pots temporarily?I should plant my dahlias while I am still home, but a little bit afraid it is too soon, frost damaged a lot of my trees, these are the last bulbs I’ve got left of my dahlias, and I don’t want to lose them, but if I don’t plant them, they will also die
Welcome! It's nice out around Eatonville.
It got down to 37 degrees here last night. Had to turn on my furnace for an hour this morning when I got up.
I have a fire in the stove to turn the electric off.
Same & it looks so dumb.
That just can't be! 5 gallon bucket evaporate? Something, or someone, was thirstyI have a baby tree that requires 70%+ humidity in order to thrive. Since I can't really replicate that inside the house easily, I bought a 4x6 ft greenhouse from Amazon and set it up in partial shade under a giant oak tree. I basically use the hose to spray the ceiling of the greenhouse so the water comes down like rain rather than spraying the plant directly... Then I filled up a 5 gallon bucket full of water to help provide a source to elevate the humidity.
Well, yesterday it rained all day so I never went out to check it. This morning I took a peek inside the greenhouse and was shocked to find the 5 gallon bucket completely empty! I am so surprised that entire bucket evaporated in a single rainy day!
now just who was that crafty devil? Snuck in, drank the water & left without a trace, not even a tell tale turd...I am suggesting setting up some sort of camera to see what's going on! You've got to have some ornery joker or crazy critter taking that water!
