Fertilize for your Flowers
 
All these flowers take a lot of maintenance and fertilizer.
So come in here and just chatter some to make them grow.

I don't really deal with flowers mostly just vegetables and fruits.

Queen_Andais 05-02-2016 04:48 PM

Talk sweetly to the flowers, Miscreant, they like the love!

Velvet 05-02-2016 04:50 PM

What Queenie said! Lots of love!

Queen_Andais 05-02-2016 05:29 PM

Every flower likes the sweet nothings whispered to it, along with some water.

Have you ever seen some of the flowers that bloom on miracle gro? That stuff is plant steroids! Better not give any to a Venus fly trap, it could eat us all! [gonk]

hummy 05-02-2016 06:00 PM

i love the tomatoes on miracle grow!

Nephila 05-02-2016 06:07 PM

*sniffs* yup smells like the good stuff. XD

Queen_Andais 05-02-2016 06:09 PM

[rofl] Nephila, on my way into work all you could smell was cow fertilizer.

Nephila 05-02-2016 06:17 PM

Oh boy, In one part of the city is a mushroom plantation. Being a fungi they grow best in the most rancid smelling of places. Property values for that whole area are super low because of it.

Queen_Andais 05-02-2016 06:24 PM

Living near that would be better than living down wind from the paper factory! Such a gross smell.

But mushrooms taste so good!

Last few days the winds here have been horrible and today barely anything, that's why I could smell the cows.

Nephila 05-02-2016 06:27 PM

Yeah sometimes hat wind will push the smell all over the city. :P We also have a large pig/cattle slaughter house. Why these things are with in city limits I'll never know.

Queen_Andais 05-02-2016 06:58 PM

At one point I am sure they were the outskirts of the city, but since things grow outwards the town moved that way.

Where we live here are pockets of homes with large yards and horses. Very random. The town grew outward and those homes were grandfathered in to allow them livestock in city limits.

BellyButton 05-02-2016 07:03 PM

I kind of miss the smell of horse poop. [ninja]

Queen_Andais 05-02-2016 07:38 PM

Belly! As a kid I loved that smell, still kind of do. Weird, right?

I'd rather smell horse poop than dog poop. *gag*

Nephila 05-02-2016 07:38 PM

lol That's an interesting thought.

Did you own Horses?

Queen_Andais 05-02-2016 07:42 PM

My family didn't own any, but my best friend's family had them. On the weekends during the summer we'd go riding. Plus there was horse camp and during the winter time after bowling on certain Saturdays I would get to go riding.

Horses and their smells never bothered me, cows and dogs and cats...gross.

BellyButton 05-02-2016 08:00 PM

Yeah, dog and cat poop are horrible. Horse poop is just.. earthy? [lol]

We had horses for a very brief period when I was about 6. But where I grew up there were wild horses that used to wander into our yard sometimes. And lots of my childhood friends had horses. So I must've smelt it frequently enough for it to trigger fond feelings of yore in my adult life, lol.

Nephila 05-02-2016 08:27 PM

Oh wow. We have wild deer, moose, foxes, raccoons and skunks ect. in this area.

One time I was out for a walk late at night. (I love star gazing when the Aurora boralies are out) And walking straight up the side walk towards me was what I thought to be a HUGE dog.

As it got closer it was a female deer with two babies in tow. She was one brave mama because we pasted each other going opposite directions. I swear I could have pet them as we were walking. Was a great once in a life time kinda moment.

BellyButton 05-02-2016 08:42 PM

Aww! That sounds amazing! Where I'm living right now, it seems like there should be deer but I've not seen any yet. So far tons of lizards and birds by day, and at night I've seen a young coyote wandering along the canal path and a ton of cute bunnies all over the place (they'll come up into the paved areas even - lil' nuts!).

hummy 05-02-2016 08:47 PM


i do not miss the smell of the pig farm

Nephila 05-02-2016 08:48 PM

It was. I tried to remain as calm as I could but OMG BABIES! XD

Oh yes we have lots of bunnies here too. They like our clover patch and flowers. >.< Some how our yard got a huge patch of clover instead of grass. We never planted any it's just always been like that I guess.

A few years back when I was ambitious and tried to have a garden I didn't have any fences up and they ate EVERY thing. The cute little stinkers had babies under our stairs too that year.

hummy 05-02-2016 08:56 PM


bunnies can demolish a garden

Queen_Andais 05-02-2016 09:11 PM

Funny you should say that Belly, it smells earthy, that's how I classified it in my head too. My family lived in a rural town in Northern California until I was 12 and one of the distinct smells that still triggers awesome memories is freshly bailed Alfalfa. Nothing smells cleaner, more like nature than freshly cut/bailed alfalfa.

I have to go past a couple of chicken farms several times a day while at work.
By the middle of the summer the smell is so bad it makes me sick.
Then I have to deal with places putting it on their cotton fields.

We have deer, bears, skunks, opossums, raccoons (that Miscreant has named because they make nightly visits to finish off the cat food).
We also have a ton of birds.
Once in a while we will see foxes & coyotes.
