  • Will pumpkin vines be ok if I covered whole patch with plastc?

    A friend told me to cover whole garden in plastic trash bags. Right now I have hay all over in patch. The grass is growing through and some is around vines. I gave been weeding and pulling it but it is just rainy and humid so nit has been hard to keep up with. But I am afraid if I use plastic that the vines will not thrive because they will have nothing to latch too.

  • Vyvanse question?

    My son is ADHD/ODD and has been on Ritalin LA 40MG since he was 5 years old, (He did not start at 40MG it had to be upped when e got older) He also takes a 20MG at noon. He is 16 now and his blood pressure.is high and his heart rate can go up to 118 BPM when he just sitting doing nothing. Now this could be because of the Ritalin or it could be just genetics because both his dad and I have high blood pressure and it runs in both our families. Today the DR at the Mental Health changed him to Vyvanse and said that since he had to take 40MG and then at noon 20MGof the Ritalin, that the Vyvanse would only have to be taken once a day. I have not given him any yet I wanted to read more about it first. But I see that it can even cause rapid heartbeat and high blood pressure. It even says that if a person has this then it might not be good to use for them. So I am confused and scared to start him on it. She started him on Vyvance 40MG. but like I said I have not given it to him yet, I just gave him his Ritalin this morning. Has anyone had experience with this drug or the same situation??

  • Growing Pumpkins Question?

    I made a pretty big patch of pumpkins. My question is how much should I water them?. It rained all night last night, and I did not realize that it was supposed to rain, and I watered them with soaker hose around 3 hours before it started to rain. I do have to water almost everyday because I have sandy soil an it dries pretty fast. So how much do I have to water in sandy soil??

  • I went near a bird nest will the momma bird still go to it?

    I was going to cut a branch that hangs to low from a tree. When I walked up to the branch I noticed a bird nest. I did not touch it. I did tip toe to look in it but still could not see inside. I decided to leave it alone and am of course not going to cut it. My question is since walked up to it will the mother bird still go to it?? I noticed a bird from that tree one day dive bombing a stray cat that walked across by yard, I guess that is the mother or father bird. Hopefully I did not ruin her nest

  • Is there a ghost in my house?

    I have not noticed anything in the house besides my room recently. But sometimes when I am laying in bed I feel like the bed moves like there is some one sitting on it or something like that, Last night I laid down on my side and was not asleep, and right where the covers were touching my neck it felt like someone put their hand on the covers and pushed down where the covers moved behind my neck. It was not hurting me I just felt the covers move. When my son was little he said he saw ghost in his room, but he is 15 now and her does not talk about seeing them anymore. So what do you think?? Anyone have experiences with this??

  • Plumber: Water hydrant question?

    I have one of those water hydrants. I just had one replaced and it is new. It does not leak around the nut when it is just on, but as soon as I hook a hose to it leaks around the nut, So I was wondering if it is from the pressure of the hose or if there is a way that I can make it stop leaking, and what I can do to prevent it.

  • What is the effect that Heroin gives a person that shoots it up?

    My question is from the fact that we lost Phillip Seymour Hoffman from this drug.. I am just wondering what the effect is that this drug gives a person and why someone can get so hooked on it that nothing else matters? And why would someone that has been off of it for 20 something years just all of a sudden want to use again?
