Re: Insomnia Thread...
Same here you should see my front patio area lol. Take care Sherry

Re: Insomnia Thread...
I bet it's loaded with pots!
What will you do about the grasshopper problem? You must be so upset they're eating all your stuff. It's raining here today, so I don't think I'm going to my mom's place after all. Anyone around? : ) |
Re: Insomnia Thread...
Yes it is, I ran out of room LOL. I sprayed some more poison on alot of my seedlings since there isnt any rain in the forecast for the next several days. I hate using poisons but I dont have a choice, they are really bad

Re: Insomnia Thread...
here are some pepper pictures Sherry

Re: Insomnia Thread...
We've got nothing but rain in our forecast for the next week! :(
Wow, it sounds like those grasshoppers are everywhere! They eat the leaves and make big holes in them, don't they? Ugh! Wow, everything is sure looking great for you, Cam! Your seedlings are coming along. :D I'm just about to re-pot some succulents... : ) |
Re: Insomnia Thread...
Wow well at least you arent having a drought. I think the storms here dropped 2 inches or more of rain here. I really do hate grasshoppers, and these are the baby ones, I havent seen any mature ones in my yard. More planting today ;-)

Re: Insomnia Thread...
Im glad that you and your family are ok. If I wasnt so scared I would have taken pics of the cool thunderstorm clouds. Im glad that I wont have to water for awhile too. I think the rain made the mosquitoes worse though. Once it dries up more, I need to fertilize my banana plants to see if that will speed up their growth

Re: Insomnia Thread...
Hi, gang! :waving:
Glad you're ok too, Zac. ;) So do you guys know how much rain actually fell? Too bad you couldn't have taken some shots, but picture-taking would have been the last thing on my mind too. :ha: So I got a few succulents re-potted and I was debating on whether to venture out into the rain, and go pick up a few things from the grocery store. It's so yucky out there. :( I suppose it could be worse...snow! :eek: Oh thank goodness we're all done with that stuff. : ) |
Re: Insomnia Thread...
I think I got 3inches of rain here. Im just glad that its over with, its hot and windy here. So what succulents did you re-pot? I went ahead and planted the potted passion vine in the ground. I wont have room for it inside.Its root hardy in my zone anyways.

Re: Insomnia Thread...
That white fuzzy one and JaNan's "blue tequila" agave. ;)
Cool you're growing passiflora vines this season. They're so easy and they practically grow themselves. Hope you get lots of fruits, Cam. :D Not sure about the grocery store. I just like going every couple days to pick up fresh veggies. I need to make some greek salad...something I eat a lot of. I like using fresh oregano & chives in it. Yummy. My girlfriend is supposed to stop over with my camera tonight or tomorrow morning, so I'm looking forward to getting it back. Still no giftcard in the mail yet to replace my Sony but they said 4-6 weeks and it's only been a little over a week now. : ) |
Re: Insomnia Thread...
I love agaves, there was a local person who was giving some away for free. They were huge but you had to dig them up yourself. I think one was nearly 4 or 5 feet tall. Can you survive a few more weeks without your camera? I'm going to start bringing mine with me when I go out. I've seen some beautiful sights lately but I didnt have my camera
|
Re: Insomnia Thread...
No I couldn't survive weeks without my camera...that's why I bought a new one! I just lent it out to my girlfriend for this past long weekend. I like my new one better in some ways. It has 14 megapixels and my sony only has 12.1.
Wonder where JaNan has disappeared to...again. ;) She's always in that invisable mode so I never know if she's on. Pretty sneaky! :ha: So I'm waiting on a new birdbath to arrive that I ordered for my little Henry. Boy is he spoiled. It's a glass bowl that sits on a wrought-iron 2 foot tall stand. At least I got it for half price though. It should be here tomorrow and I'll be sure to get a shot of it when it arrives in person, but here it is...  It's hand-painted glass and the torquoise part of the bowl is actually transparent. I just hope that you-know-who likes it. I thought he might, since it's blue like him. He likes blues things. : ) |
Re: Insomnia Thread...
I wonder where Janan is too lol. That bird bath is so pretty! I think I would even like to take a bath in it lol. Henry is definitely spoiled LOL.
|
Re: Insomnia Thread...
She tells me she misses me on here, but then she's never around! Alright JaNan, we know you're off somewhere buying more plants to make us jealous, and that's why you're absent! :ha:
Oh yeah, he's spoiled alright, Cam. He's excited too, because I keep telling him that a present is coming for him. He knows when I have surprises for him and when something fun is in store. He's been happily chirping all day long! I keep telling him "you're getting a new bath" but totally enthusiastically and excitedly. He can barely contain himself and he starts pacing back and forth on the top of his cage. I can't wait to introduce it to him. The stand for the bath, even folds up! It's been weather-proofed too and they claim the paint will not wear off and the glass is unbreakable! I'm going to set it up beside his cage until he gets used to it. At first I bet he'll be very suspicious and skeptical, like he usually is with new things for awhile. I'm going to set up my water pump in the center of the bath too because he likes to put his head under a stream of water, and used to try to bathe in my indoor fountain...that's how I realized it. : ) |
Re: Insomnia Thread...
I hope she responds soon. The plants she bought last week were so beautiful. I was jealous lol. That's amazing that the glass is unbreakable, I know Henry will love it.
|
Re: Insomnia Thread...
I wouldn't want to put the unbreakable glass promise to the test! :ha:
I hope JaNan replies soon too. :2738: Wow this thread is huge now, eh? Wonder when we'll need an "Insomnia Thread Part Two". :eek: I like having a place to pop in and chat. I know people on other sites enjoy it too and I've started a few conversation threads along the way that went really well. I enjoy chatting with you guys...when we're around. ;) : ) |
Re: Insomnia Thread...
I was just thinking about that. I know I saw some "unbreakable" christmas ornaments last year but someone had broken them lol. I think this may be the longest thread on here lol. Its the one I visit the most LOL:woohoonaner:
|
Re: Insomnia Thread...
It's fun when different people dip in and out and chat for awhile, but I enjoy you 'regulars' too. :ha:
Yeah, that's why I said I wouldn't want to put it to the test because next thing you know it would be shattered into a million pieces with Henry and I standing over it looking like this...:eek:!!! Yeah I think this thread is about the longest, but not the oldest. It's fairly new really, to have become so long in such a short time. It's because people like to chat. :D Except for JaNan! LoL. : ) |
Re: Insomnia Thread...
I enjoy chatting with you and Janan. Tom hasnt be posting for a while. I hope he is ok. I could imagine Henry staring at a shattered bird bath with his little beak open in shock lol. I had a nest of red birds in the cedar trees by my house but I only see one of the adults every now and then. My mom told me if you blow a kiss to a red bird its suppose to be good luck:08: I wonder why its taking my Orinoco pups so long to take off. I got the corm in April and the pups are still small. I'm waiting to fertilize it since it rained yesterday. Maybe it will take off soon, it really needs to get going before the summer heat gets here. I'm trying to be patient but I dont want it to perish in summer lol
