Ask a Question, Get an Answer

April 13th, 2007

I’m not a master gardener, but I’d like to be one day, and of what I know, I think I know a great deal.

Anyways, in checking the statistics for this blog I noticed many people visit here looking for answers to specific questions, questions that may not have been answered already in the blog. If you’re one of these people, you can ask me a question and I’ll do my best to answer it.

Simply visit the forums and register. You’ll need to confirm your email address, that means you’ll get an email with an activation code or link that you’ll have to use. The activation email may get blocked by a spam filter, so be sure to look in your junk mail folder for it if you cannot find it, it should arrive in 5 minutes or less after you register. Once you have registered you can find the most appropriate subforum for your question, such as Landscape Design or Edible Gardening, and then look for the “New Thread” button to post your question.

If your question is about any plant I grow, I’ll probably know the answer. If your question is about a plant I don’t grow, I might know it, or I’ll try to find it. I know I won’t be able to answer every question, but I hope I can answer most.

    don’t know if I am in the right place, but it’s a very nice web site! I’m not a blogger so I don’t know very much about this. If possible, can you spread the word?
    i’d like people to know about the symposium “Invasives 101: the Good, the Bad, and the Ugly”, from 9:00 - 3:00 on Saturday, April 28, 2007, at the MSU Conference Center in Troy, MI. Speakers from the Nature Conservancy will tell how to identify and control 15 of the worst invasive plants in Michigan. (Of course this depends on climate and soil conditions, among other things.) You can go the web page to find out all about it.

    And I’d be happy to identify them.

    I live in an apartment complex that a few years back had a small tree in my front yard that was cut down. The stump was never removed and stands about 8 inches inches high. The owner shows no interest in removing it. It is approximatley 20″ in diameter and is such an eyesor and quite obviously a hazard of sorts. Is there anything that I can do with it to help hide this eye sore? I appreciate any and all ideas!

    There are chemicals/things you can sprinkle on stumps to remove them. But they work slowly.

    The one sure fire way, other than dynamite or burning it out, is to get someone with a stump grinder to come and take care of it, but they usually charge a couple hundred.

    If your goal is merely to perhaps make it less of a trip hazard, get a large flower pot and stick it on top of it, then you can plant things inside of it.
