My amazing husband whom I ADORE got me these over the years:
1. A grow tent for the garage so I can grow stuff even in the winter! I've used it every year, and love it.
2. Shelving units for the grow tent. Before them they were set on the ground and didn't maximize space
3. Lights. Lots and lots...
My mom fancied herself a grand cook and made lots of food very poorly. I thought I was a very picky eater as a child, because I didn't like chilli with the whole bottle of chilli powder in the chilli, seasoning dry on top because it was piled so high.

F1's have their place, but it's important to understand the pros and cons. The big con is you can't save seed from them. They're a hybrid of two varieties, so any seeds you save won't be like the parents at all.

I walk at least a mile almost every day. I'm working on a project with Leia experimenting with whether long quicks on dog nails can be shortened. I've already seen a difference :)
My son has a venus fly trap in the tiny little cup it came in. The roots are sticking out the bottom so I believe it needs a new home. He would like to know what sort of soil/pot would be good for a little plant, and how to transplant it without triggering the traps because I guess each fly trap...
Today I decided to do some training since Harold has been back to his normal self. He did so good!! He was quite pleased to jump on the box many times for corn. He also seemed a lot more engaged and interested in actually working. The past few times the girls have been doing the work and when...
