The DMV maintains an affiliation with photographic programs so they can hire their failures.

Hola, How is everyone?
Ot and OT and how knows where the topic happens to be? I hVE PLENTY OF TYPOS AND CAN'T SPEEL, SO i THINK i'LL FIT IN HERE VERY WELL. Smiling mY PLANTS ARE GROWIN' AND SPRING IS EXPLODIN" SO OOPS hit cpas lock acciendtly. Now where was I...oh well...lost my thought. I may find it in lost-n-found eventually.

Water is important and I have to say I am richly blessed because I have a well which is in a main artery 412 below the surface of the ground. I hope this is deep enough to be protected from as much junk as possible.

My service dog Bella is starting to drink more water, so I must being doing something correctly. I have been placing her water dish near the heat vent so that the dry air can pick up mosisture ...whatever here season for drinking more water recently is a mystery to me. I'm glad she is finally drinking enough because before here urine was extremely concintrated. Maybe she should start watering the plants for me... I could teach her how to pick up the watering can and get her to dribble water out of it for my plants.

I hVE A fish tank which I want to use for a terrarium. Running the equipment for the fish is too expnsive. My water is full of iron, and..smells like ... hum...oh...it's sulfer! I can filter the water using the puitcher and filter system I have. I may try this, then again, I'm not certain.

I used to raise rabbits and have horses along with other animals, however, I'm unable to do this any more.

All good stuff there, dogpack. I collect water in a very large rainbarrel. Fortunately, I collect it from my metal carport roof rather than my house roof ... so I can avoid all that asphalt "stuff" that comes off with the rain runoff. Glare

The bane of most plants ... either not enough water or too much.

Have a good day. I tip my hat to you.

Sounds like it is in shock. this was the one you rescued from the trash?. It should pick up now with spring here. Give it more bright light. Not direct Sun but sunny shade. While out side, give it a good spraying/cleaning. Remove all the old dead leaves. Clean-up the stock. Give us a picture before and after. Best of luck. Remember no fertilizer until you see new growth. Then just a little.

Right now my camera is in the shop for it's yearly check-up and cleaning along with the lenses. I should be getting it back in a few weeks.

Shock may be putting it mildly. This poor thing was in the trash as a piece and there were no roots. I have it close to the window now with it under some of my other plants for filtered light effects. Would the soil being a regular miracle grow general potting soil with perlite mixed in be part of the problem? Also, recently I had to rescue the very top because it still was going brown and this was because there was a spot that appeared to be drying out for some reason and shrivling. I'm still trying to figure out how to regulate the water. Even with weeks and months of research it still isn't clear exactly what the dracaens Jenny craig compactia likes and needs to thrive. I hope I can figure this out soon. This plant doesn't need any more troubles. It needs a major break so it can start to thrive and en joy life. I can give it this much; it still wants to live and be in this world.
