A Question

Category: Ed's Balcony Garden | Posted: Fri May 25, 2012 11:22 pm

Frank I know you'll be angry,but have a question that I don't think will fit in anywhere.
As my friends know I have a bird bath with no takers.
I thought since the birds do come cto the bath with no water but seed I have guests.
Now can I place both a little water and some seed in the same place hoping to get them to like the water.
The birds drink out of puddles that have antifreeze and I know that is not good.
I have a new baby who will be seen tomorrow,I'm SOO happy.
Later friends sleep cool

Well friends its 76 going to 80 this afternoon and the humidity is already at 72%.
Yesterday you saw the beginning photos and although not finished it looks better and I hope to do more.
I saw a lovely fake waterfall with pump yesterday and I know it would greatly improve the balcony,but cost too much.
So much for my ranting and now to the photos.
Enjoy

Well friends, I haven't been on lately as not much is happening.
Some of the seeds I got are just barely sprouting,all tomato plants are doing well.
Was just wondering about my moisture meter,in reference to the amount of water I should see on scale that goes from 0-100%.
I think around it should be about 50%.
So far things I either gotten from friends or bought are still alive,seeds are VERY hard to keep alive.
On a GREAT note,my snake plant is giving forth of a SECOND set of blooms(VERY HAPPY)
As for the dumb birds,all they do is poop in the birdbath,I clean it out and it keeps.
Maybe they have to christen it.
Sleep warm.

TOO Long

Category: Ed's Balcony Garden | Posted: Fri May 11, 2012 6:53 pm

Well friends
Its been to long since I was here,but blame my doctor.
The past 3 days I've been away from all of you cause I was in the hospital.
To make a long story short I did NOT have a heart attack,but it was VERY scary for me.
The plants and my babies were cared for.
Also I did not notice last night but this morning I was blessed with a beautiful rose downstairs.
More to come later.

Happy Belated MAY DAY

Category: Ed's Balcony Garden | Posted: Wed May 02, 2012 9:04 pm

Well friends its crappy here with rain and overcast,but the plants are getting watered.
I just received my 2nd moisture meter and its so simple I can work it.
I got more potting soil,so I will be busy this weekend.
Last night after all the neighbors went inside I was on my balcony and notices a Lovely smell coming from somewhere.
This morning I noticed 8 very small white blooms,and I wonder if that is where the smell came from.
My other questions will be placed in the right place here.
Its looking a little better here although its raining.
Later friends,
ed
