Why don’t my tomato’s turn green in my garden. I?
I grow tomato in containers planters and get lots of tomatos on the plants (stems), but very seldom do the green tomatos turn green.

SAGE plant: questions on growth, pruning, harvesting, storing?
Hi! so I have a run of the mill sage plant that I planted last year in my little box garden outside (it’s a triangle bos really & it’s about 3 feet or so long on the longest part.)
So I have lots of things in it that did come back, tricolor sage (not as big as the regular sage plant)& curly parsley & the basil seeds have started re-growing.
I have other herbs in containers that I’m about to plant for this season & I have to make room for them so they can grow too
SO the issue is… my sage plant is a monster! HUGE!!! and all over almost 2 feet across and tall too! It’s budding and a few purple flowers are forming ? whats the easiest thing I can do here? clip the buds? clip the flowers? and then trim down the plant?
where should I cut from? should I take off whole branches from the “trunk”? then what? chuck the buds & flowers & hang the things in the garage? (no AC in there though- can get humid if weather changes.
should I dry all the clippings or do other things too???

Zen Garden?
Im looking for a small desktop-ish zen garden. Id prefer one with a black container (although I could just spray paint it) with white sand and kind of in a rectangle. I’ve already looked on this website (http://www.zengarden.co.za/index.html)
but when I went to order one I didn’t see the lock in the corner of the webpage and im not sure if I trust the site. So anybody else know where to find one like what I described?

Help! Oblivion PC keeps on crashing when ever I go on it?
Hello. I just recently installed loads of mods for oblivion, and have been hooked to Kumiko Manor. However, I have just put all my stuff in there, and went outside into the courtyard. I then went to go in the mage tower, and then it crashed. I then tried again, and it happened again. I then just tried to save outside the tower, and then it crashed again. Then I tried to teleport to Imperial City and then it crashed again. I installed the latest patch and loaded up the game and it crashed before I even started to load the game. What should I do?
My mod list is as followed:
aaaBorsBedrolls.esp
ArmoryLab.esp
Bag of Holding.esp
BravilSeaDomes.esp
Faster Spells.esp
Francesco’s Levelled Creatures-Items Mod.esm
Francesco’s Optional Files.esp
Francesco’s Optional New Creatures Add-on.esm
Francesco’s Optional New Items Add-on.esm

mnp Nighteye Goggles.esp
No physhic guards v1.2.esp
Oblivion.esm

I have also played 35 hours without any major problems.
Thanks for the help

Bouquet garni (Home style) (Spice packet) – soups => Nylons?
One day I’ll plant a herb garden, however, for now, I use dry spices — cheap, highly available, comparably longer shelf life.
I usually package a mixture of spices for my soup/stock in a coffee filter, tied with dental floss — very homestyle — both alway available and plentiful — I don’t want little herb floaters in my finished soup.
Someone recently posted a suggestion that they use a piece of pantyhose as a herb container.
This seems like an interesting idea, however, my concern would be with dyes used on these.
-Should I concern myself with the dye or material (nylon) issue of pantyhose in my soup ?
- Are the holes in metal tea balls (another posted suggestion) sufficiently small to contain ground spices ? Is this a better alternative ? Downside ?
- Any downside on the coffee filter/ dental floss (non-flavored) method I currently use ?
Thanks !

Can I transplant some shrubs in early march? – losing my home and have a few I want to take?
Specifically I want to see if I can carefully transplant into containers some Roses, Hydrangeas, French Lilacs and dig up my bulbs early…..lost the house to the bank, and I just don’t want to lose everything from my garden! It was bad enough with layoffs and cancer….but losing my flowers is more than I can bear..

I had some flowers die in real life, in my dream i see a single white tulip bloom?
IN REAL LIFE i was given a mixed garden type container, and one of the 3 plants had some flowers in it, they were pink.
I mistreated the container and forgot to water and left it in a pretty dark place. In a couple of days the flowers died but the other two plants were doing fine.
IN MY DREAM, i woke up and looked at the container and watched a single white tulip like flower bloom rather quickly. The tulip was growing over the dead pink flowers.
Any idea on what this means?

How can I encourage drainage in a pot without holes?
I’m recycling old buckets to use when planting a small container vegetable garden. Since I seem to find constant uses for plastic buckets, would simply adding some loose rocks/gravel at the base of the buckets provide sufficient drainage for my plants, or do I absolutely need to drill a hole for drainage (thus rendering the bucket unusable in the future should I ever decide to do something else with it)? Kind of silly, I know, but I’m cheap and broke most of the time so I like to make everything stretch as much as possible!
