Suggestions for growing hydroponic in Gallon Containers that I can add activated coal and Fish Emulsion to?
Suggestions for growing hydroponic in Gallon Containers that I can add activated coal and Fish Emulsion to?
I can also add Soil with Manure and a mixture of chipped cocoa nut hulls with rooting hormone.
It can get full sun or partial sun or indirect sun in various locations in Sub Tropical Orlando.
I prefer fruit, vegetable or fragrant flowering plants or edible herbs or medicinal herbs.
I'm especially challenged by the locations that only get indirect light in shaded areas.
I'm also challenged at having to buy soil or whatever since all the ground here is sand and maybe a little decayed leaf above the sand.
Thanks for any good help :-)

2 AnswersOther - Diseases10 years agoSuggestions for plants for 4 Inch Pot, Indirect SubTropical Sun, 80 F and above, also 6 Inch Full Sun?
Suggestions for plants for 4 Inch Pot, Indirect SubTropical Sun, 80 F and above, also 6 Inch Full Sun?
I read of Chinese Garlic but I'm not sure it can work at such high temperatures.
Not sure ANYthing can work at such high temps except maybe cactus, & I don't like thorns, but if it's my only choice, maybe I'll go for it.
I wonder if maybe some kind of leeks or shoots could work with even such high temperatures?
I'll block air movement with foil on the inside of the window's blind, which I hope protects it from the extremes of heat that happen when I cook & such.
I also expect to cover the plant with clear plastic bag over the top while cooking & such, in hope to protect the plant more.
Separately, in a deeper window, I'd like to plant a 6 Inch Pot that gets at least a few hours of Direct Sub-Tropical Sun, though it's protected by a door from the extreme heat of cooking & such (but it's quite Florida - warm in that room, & I rarely use Air Conditioning).
Separately, I've a glass container with a lid I'd like to plant like a terrarium, hopefully keeping it's lid on it, even though I'll probably tape a penny or a cord or something on the lid to elevate it even a bit. (That container would easily get fluorescent light but I can place it for a bit of Direct or Indirect Sub Tropical Sun).
Thank you for your time & any good help
1 AnswerOther - Home & Garden1 decade agoProbably an individual, changing "matter of heart", but concerning Scripture - Torah, can I charge interest?
Probably an individual, changing "matter of heart", but concerning Scripture - Torah, can I charge interest, Usury?
I like to loan money to needy strangers at up to 6% Interest, but I'm very concerned about Scriptures & Torah & other references concerning charging interest (knowing it CAN be a sin, & I'm not supposed to do it to fellow church members or people in hardship & such).
In my heart, I think of them as needy, though they must be surviving stably enough to convince the small loan micro finance I use, so I guess they must be good-enough for the daily food, drink, shelter, clothing, yet in my heart I think of them as needy or in hardship.
In my heart, I don't really think of them as "strangers" though I don't know them & expect to never meet them in this life, plus I don't think of not-Christians as strangers or anything bad really.
I'm very interested in references, quotes, along with opinion.
Thank you for any good help :-)

Can I "force" flower Paperwhite Bulbs in the new (to me) silicone gel mediums? Is it ok if they sink? Help?
Some instructions say the bulbs must have the top Inch above soil - silicone - medium (plus I'm not even sure if the bulbs will "float" on the silicone stuff).
So thank you for good answers if the artificial dirt stuff works for "forcing bulbs"

I dearly wish to Ship as far & wide as I can, starting with USPS, only Accountable, like Guaranteed or Tracking, but any advise on that is welcomed also.
It seems I can't find out the answers without going 1 by 1 through the many Countries!
I've Searched much, is there no List somewhere?
Thank you :-)
This is an Answer from another following.
usps delivers almost to any country, tracking services are provided to every single one of them.
my suggestion for detailed information is to check the blocked countries.

Advise me about items to invest in to sell on ebay with International Shipment? Inexperienced, general info?
Advise me about items to invest in to sell on ebay with International Shipment? Inexperienced, general info?
I put a few things up on ebay for the 1st time & I want to sell International, starting with as easy & low cost with accountable security as possible, like the obvious example of Canada, but I'd sure be proud to work my way up to almost any location, starting with even a penny profit to start.
I get the impression in my reading that I should stay under 4 lbs 4 pounds.
I've read warnings that UPS & Fed Ex & others suddenly demand more payment at Delivery & it often screws things up.
I've read that it's best to Insure the Shipment separately with businesses like Shipsurence, Auctiva, U-Pic, Inkfrog.
Thanks for any good advise :-)
2 AnswersSmall Business1 decade agoHelp choosing Brand shopping cheap-good-quality microSD 16 GB please? Topram - 3C Pro - SanDisk - ChiTek?
I'm shopping for a memory Card for my cell phone, a first, I hope to listen bluetooth earpiece to music that switches to any incoming phone call or message.
It's for a Sprint Virgin Mobile LG Rumor 2 LX265
Phone says it needs a 16 GB microSD or microSDHC TransFlash hot-swappable
Some authority on the phone said miniSD instead of microSD but the cover on the phone says micro so I'm going with that for now.
Looking for the SDHC instead of SD 'cause I'm not even sure what it means but the HC sounds better so I'm going for it for now.
16GB is the limit, & I'm looking for that, since I like the best & I luv lots of music, maybe mp3 or data books or such? I don't even know all the possibilities yet, & I'm a digital-junkie so I LUV' it!!! :-))
My Brand choices of the moment are
Topram
3C Pro
SanDisk
ChiTek

How do I easily learn Legislation Votes from Congress to local Orlando FL, with accurate summaries of Proposals?
I'd like it to be factual, as simple & completely balanced as possible, folk that report Representative X voted on Legislative Proposal that means this.
Perhaps I should explore Library of Congress online more, but it's more the accurate & fair summarizing of what the Legislation Proposes, what it means behind the legal-speak, likely consequences & such.
Thank you for any help you may offer :-)
2 AnswersGovernment1 decade agoDoublechecking b 4 the buy, 12'+ of wire with an antenna connector for my old tv, 1 end of the wire each side?
Doublechecking b 4 the buy, 12'+ (over 12 feet) of wire with an antenna connector for my old tv, 1 end of the wire each side?
Just double checking before I spend my few bucks on a plan I've chosen from research on getting free broadcast tv signals.
I'd like to store them for free in a dvr that plays on my old tv or laptop or what-not, & I do NOT want to pay a monthly fee, so such a dvr is very rare, formerly put out in Canada under some name like Moxi, & they were well over $500, closer to $700, but in the time since, I think they've stopped manufacturing them. But I understand they had excessively good antenna reception, & I'd rather only pay, expand, into online free viewing & pay viewing, not more tv's & such, another pc or monitor instead :-)
So I may not be able to find & afford such a dvr.
So my compromise for now, I will buy an old plastic metal connector that used to attach antenna to the cable input of old tv's, attach each end of a wire (at least 12" long) to the 2 screw terminals on the connector.
I can probably get far more than 12 feet of speaker wire from a former purchase long ago.
I've researched more than a few that seemed true, independent of 1 another, said it receives about as good as any, including the most expensive.
So even a few bucks & hours are more important to me than you might think, I welcome constructive criticism & better ideas
Thank you :-)

I luv' that ol' song & don't seem to find it over the years & cant' remember the real exact name.
