  • Tomato plant leaves "curling".?

    This has happened to me before and I don't know why. I have 5 plants in buckets in Miracle Grow Garden soil. After the plants get about 12" high, the new growth leaves are very small and curled inward. No discoloration, no aphids. Last year two of the plants did this and they were like "stunted" the rest of the season and produced no fruit. Last year I read that there may be some kind of bacteria in the soil that could cause this. This year I have all fresh, new soil. Any ideas????? I have been growing tomatos for many years, so I am not new at this. Thanks.

  • Tune-up for autos....?

    In this new day and age,,,,,what is actually done to a car for a "tune-up"?. My wife insists my 1999 Ford Explorer needs a "tune-up". It has 60K miles on it. It runs fine as far as I'm concerned. I have changed the oil, gas and air filters regularly. With all the "electronics" in the newer vehicles, I was wondering what a tune-up entails, and does my vehicle actually need one. In my time, I would change the spark plugs, points and condenser and it would be done.

  • Fertilizer for strawberries...................?

    I have planted some strawberries in one of those hanging baskets The ones that you fill with dirt, cut holes in the sides and let the plants grow out the side and hang down. Anyway, I was wondering what kind of fertilizer I should use on them?? I have plenty of Miracle Grow, but not sure if that would be OK. I know it's good for almost everything. Thanks.

  • Kodak EastShare Camera?

    I recently downloaded pictures from the camera to my computer. The program removed all of the pictures from the camera. Is there a way to send the pictures back to the camera?

  • Credit Rating After Marriage/Buying House.?

    My credit rating is very low due to ex-wife late on mortgage payments and daughter defaulting on loan I signed for. My fiancee is concerned that this will effect "our" rating when we go to buy a house. I beleive that my score will not effect hers. She has "excellent" score. Can she buy a house in her name using me as co-signer?? Will that effect the credit decisions on the loan??? Will my low score effect the ability to get a loan or is hers sufficient with me as co-signer??? Can the house be in both of our names or this our decision to make?
