Crocus asked:


Each year it is the same. The perennial garden is too large. I should have divided plants in the spring. It now seems like an insurmountable task. My garden has outgrown my energy! Any suggestions? Zone 3

Chickey asked:


I just moved to a new place I have a small garden. It has really stubborn weeds spent almost 2-3 hours pulling them out. What is the best way to get rid of them keep them away? Is there a weed protector that I can lay over the garden before I plant any seeds as I’m eager to start my own garden. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

j-diddy asked:


I moved into a house with a huge garden in the back that I want covered up and replaced with grass. It is completely run over in weeds, and the soil is very hard and clay like. What is the best way to make it grass? Do I kill all the weeds first? and what is better, grass seeds or those pre-grown grass mats? I don’t have any experience in lawn care. Thanks for the help!

Normally I’d welcome bugs, but these are particular aggressive and the garden is my 15 month old daughter’s favorite play place.

I just found a garden snake while going to the second floor of my house… The house has screens everywhere and the doors are closed. I have no idea how it got in. I live in the country side of a tropical island… Any non-chemical ways to make them avoid getting in the house?

K M asked:


My dad’s tiller is broken, and I want to surprise him by getting his garden ready for planting before father’s day. Is there any way to do so without a plow or tiller? As you can probably tell, I know nothing about this sort of thing. Thanks in advance!

The council has placed a street lamp right next to my garden. This had caused a tremendous amount of light pollution. How can I stop my garden being so bright?

How do I keep away unwanted visitors to our community garden ?

revathi asked:


I am from India. My home overlooks a community garden which we have all strived to maintain and keep beautiful. Nowadays it is becoming a haunt for unwanted visitors.
They are usual young adults and couples from nearby localities.
Most of the time we find them indulging in indecent behaviour. Even though the area might be well lit, it does not prove a deterrent. When asked politely to move away, they are often abusive and use profanity to people of all age groups (even kids and elders). Even when we just pass by, they use obscene language and make lewd remarks.

They also buy food from the popular eateries. And seem to treat the open areas and parks as tourist areas! Every day we find plastic covers, food wrappers and on some occasions – even bottles of alcohol, strewn around.

We are taking so much pain to keep our community clean and all the effort seems to be in vain.

Please help with your suggestions on how to tackle the issue.

Evilish13 asked:


So my aero garden is constantly telling me that my water level is low. However it isnt! It is totally filled. How can i fix this? I think maybe the roots are just clogging things. Is this possible? Have you encountered this problem?
