Fertilizer.Does anyone else ever notice this from temp. changes?
Comments (13)I CANNOT believe you actually said this: "When was the last time you said anything nice to me????" but since you did, here's a real direct answer. May 7, 2009, (sorry I don't know how to post a link, for the real thing, it's about 2 pages back now, includes pix of my youngster) please see below: "How long does it take to root one of these? Brought to you by clip this post email this post what is this? see most clipped and recent clippings Posted by meyermike_1micha 5 (My Page) on Thu, May 7, 09 at 19:05 I have had a cutting, or leaf of a ZZ plant sitting in water for over 3 months now. It is alive and well, but no roots..Weird. How long does it take to root, if at all? That leaf looks so healthy still... Thanks.. Follow-Up Postings: RE: How long does it take to root one of these? Brought to you by clip this post email this post what is this? see most clipped and recent clippings Posted by pirate_girl Zone7 NYC (My Page) on Thu, May 7, 09 at 22:07 Hi Mike, It can take quite some time. I've rooted leaves in mix, that can take around a year. I've recently water rooted a stem, but didn't make note of the date I put it up. I took these pix, 'cause they show the round tuber AND the roots the plant develops. I really don't remember how long it took, but am guessing 9 months maybe, like from last Fall (I think I had accidentally broken the stem off the parent plant). and and So if you can grow some serious patience, you might end up w/ something like this. I think I'll take mine to my local Plant Society to pass around & show this development & then sell it at their plant sale table for a couple of bucks. ----------------------------------------------------------- RE: How long does it take to root one of these?

I rooted some cuttings in water and some leaves in soil but it did take more than 6 months. I now have a lovely little plant about 4" tall. After you plant it in soil the cutting or leaf will eventually die off and a new shoot will emerge. --------------------- RE: How long does it take to root one of these?

That plant is so cute. Sounds like they take as long as a pregnacy for a women, almost 9 months..lol Thanks for sharing. It tells me that my waiting is worth it, and that it just may continue to live. Yes I am encouraged. I didn't want to loose it I will post a pic just as soon as I see a root... Pattirose4, thanks for sharing also. Take care and stay happy!! Thank goodness the spring has arrived..:-) --------------------- RE: How long does it take to root one of these?

Comments (8)Your post caught my eye as I am also recovering from knee surgery, fractured patella. Cant stoop, lose my balance easily, am slower than I was, but determined to garden. I am an RN, and this is what I would do were I in your position. First......gauntlet gloves that are as long as you can buy them. Then, protective clothing like something you can get from Cabella's, Eddie Bauer or other high end hunting store. They have overalls, jackets, shirts made for people who hunt in very rugged country, get the clothing that is impenetrable to thorns. Next, I would keep close at hand a first aid kit with items you would need to immediately clean a cut - I swab on 7% iodine when I get a cut - [use this in my horse barn on navels of newborn foals] or a strong Betadine solution [again...I use the strong scrub I keep for horse wounds I get from my vet - its stronger than what you can buy]. Or ask your pharmacist what he would recommend. Keep swabs, gauze pads, bandaids of several sizes in this kit. It will be handy, you can clean any wound immediately. Next, I would let your DH do some of the initial pruning, and let you do the finer touch up work. That way, the bigger branches would be gone by the time you started. And do all this early in the day to avoid heat. You have a beautiful garden, but you must take care. I get scratches all the time, never pay them any attention, but you must put yourself first, so you can get back to gardening sooner! And you are only 3 weeks post op? You really have to take care not to lose your balance! I shouldnt talk though, I was sneaking out on crutches the first week to plant some early roses that came so my boyfriend, who was at work, wouldnt catch me at it. Try to look at the long term consequences......[the first few weeks were the hardest for me] and know that you will improve weekly - but you really must take care. What kept me in line was the fear I would hop around too much and end up back in surgery again. Made a believer out of me! Found out today though that I will have to have the pins out at some time or other, more surgery, more down time, but not as bad. Let others do the grunt work, you fine tune, and be careful! Good luck! Judith...See MoreAnyone used an LED for anti-aging? (or anything else)
Comments (12)Thanks for the replies, and esp. Terri, you Oregonian beauty pioneer : ) emagineer, I also appreciate your research. lynn, maybe we'll get some good 'real folks' feedback on this possibly promising technology. Part of me is very skeptical but there's also the hopeful part... Terri, you have given me an idea -- maybe I should try a bed experience for a few weeks -- it would be less than the purchase and would probably be more powerful? I've found spas around here that have infrared LED beds...I can't imagine that you wouldn't have seen results by this point, though. That's puzzling. And I second emagineer's question: have you noticed any improvement in aches etc.? I remember seeing far infrared saunas being sold for that purpose--maybe this would rejuvenate two birds with one stone? :)...See MoreAnyone Else Always Run a Below Normal Temperature?
Comments (29)Oh good grief, I grew up in Minnesota fer cryin' out loud, OF COURSE I have a low body temperature! Dotmom, I look at it this way, I have a budget of temperature and I just have to spread it out more than a lot of people.... that would make it lower! :) Back in my teens when I broke my hip I drove them crazy in the hospital. They couldn't believe my temp could be so low. "Must be a bad thermometer!" and they'd run off and get another. I had 8 or 10 thermometers lined up there. I tried telling them, but nurses don't like to listen, especially to a "kid". (And I have the utmost respect for the unheralded nurses, but there is a flaw in most.) BTW, I still have a couple of those thermometers around. Makes me laugh when I see all these people so paranoid over light bulbs having mercury in them. They don't think about thermometers, but that's a different group to offend!...See MoreMeghane
