So one thing I’ve noticed, if you are trying to attract pollinators to your garden just spray your plants leaves down with milk and water. I’d been trying to get them around my plants to pollinate and nothing worked but when my Zucchini leaves began to powder I sprayed them with the mixture and low and behold I couldn’t even walk outside there were tons of bees. It looked like a Beyoncé concert, the whole beehive was out!!! You’ll thank me later.

My Japanese Laurel isn’t doing the best in this heat. Does anyone have any recommendations on what I can get to help it out?
So Babar has roots growing out the pot. Does this mean he has to be repotted? Babar is almost 6 ft tall!
I guess him and Babar are friends. 🤷🏾♀️🤷🏾♀️🤷🏾♀️
Hi! I’m fairly new to plant life, and this is the first time my plants have survived all the way until fall (yay for progress!). I’m starting to think about winter months, I live in northern Indiana so it gets quite cold. I have a covered porch that’s houses quite a few plants (a variety of succulents, a silver inch plant, Chinese money plant too name a few). I’m looking for recommendations on winter care so my babies don’t die. I wondered if moving them inside would be best, or if a heat lamp would be okay? Any advice appreciated :)
New to gardening. I have a sweet pepper plant and cucumbers growing. They both are about 5-6 inches and over an inch wide. My question is how do I know when they are ready to picked?
How do you harvest basil?
Okay gardening gurus! We have built this trellis but of course the cucumbers are growing over it now. I’ve read about topping them… I’ve read about making the vines go back down. Any suggestions form you guys would be great!
Question please. If I planted some of my fruit trees in the ground, will I still be able to follow this app correctly?
Hello! When do you like to water outdoor plants in the HOT months? Morning, midday, or evening? I have mixed facts and would like to know from you what you think is best.
Let’s see does anyone know what this is
I was told this looks like a pepper plant. I didn’t label it when I planted the seeds. It’s been steady growing since May but I don’t see any peppers. May I have a second opinion for what this may be?
I have this little maple tree that I’m growing he’s very tiny and his leaves at the top are turning brown and falling off. The leaves at the bottom though are perfectly fine is there any way I can help the poor guy?
Gloss is pushing out one too! I can’t wait until she turns black!
Babar pushed another one out!
Does anyone know what is wrong with this squash plant? 🙏🏼
I struggle with outdoor gardening for 2 reasons… 1) ridiculous allergies, 2) we are gone most of June and July traveling and camping. I got a water g system set up on a lot of my plants around my patio, and a timed apron on the garden this year, and it’s definitely helped ☺️ I would say I’m still on the struggle bus with outdoor plants, but here’s to making it closer to the door to get off! 😆 here’s some of the more successful babies ❤️
Anything I can do to save this guy or has the sun completely scorched it?
This squat fluffy hummingbird has been sitting here next to the feeder almost all day. I know the birds fight over the feeder so we plan to get another one soon, but is this normal? I assume the bird is ‘standing guard’, but am just guessing. Any input?
Hello everyone! I have almost all of my plants indoors, apart from a euphorbia outside. I have a western facing covered porch and a small area of southern facing covered porch. Does anyone have recommendations for plants that can survive outside for the majority of the year in zone 7b and be happy in this environment? So far I’m considering a ficus. I would also love to try some begonias outside, maybe Hoyas, and carnivorous plants. Does anyone have tips when it comes to bringing the plants inside for a few months of the year? I would prefer not to bring critters in, lol. Thanks so much! Pictures are for attention, I had a plant trade with my friend yesterday :)
