    Planting cantaloupe & watermelon

    I like that idea. What I have been doing is planting 4 or 5 seeds in a circle and then move a few feet over. I never made the hill. Do you water your seeds in or just wait for nature to do it.

    Low budding leaves

    One of my apple trees (Rubinette) is leafing out 2"-3" above the graft union and after 6 weeks has failed to leaf out any higher. I scraped the top half and it's still green underneath. Should I prune the top part off or leave it be. I included a picture so all of you experts can see what I am...

    Picture Of The Week (POW) Information & Submissions

    Let's say you have a yellow rose and you go out one day and among all the yellow blooms you see a red bloom. That is a sport. That is how a lot of today's roses come to be. Roses every now and then will throw out a completely different colored bloom.

    Aquatic garden

    To successfully grow freshwater plants, you need the right lights and to inject co2 into the aquarium. Without the added co2 most of the interesting plants won't thrive, let alone grow.
