Hello, I haven't been around for quite awhile. Work picked up and I am finishing up my associates degree so I haven't had much chance to stop by. My Pygmy Date Palm is in some pretty bad shape, it didn't like the indoors too well. I have it outside now that temps aren't going below the mid 40's at n...

Thanks again Barb.

I'll see what I can find. I need something to keep that Pygmy alive. Unfortunately its not getting as much sun as I originally thought.

ZeroLT1

I am looking at something like this.

http://www.amazon.com/LED-Orange-Spectr ... _rhf_p_t_2

I am probably way off. Only place I can think to browse is amazon. Anyone know of a good company/website I could try?

ZeroLT1

Alright, thank you both.

ZeroLT1

Super amazing!

ZeroLT1

Thank you. I did look at Lowes and a Menards, they have some grow lights, but it never says anything specific other than its a T8 bulb, I think I seen a T5? (Not sure which is better.) They did say full spectrum so I'm assuming thats good. Anything else I should look for? (luminaries or etc?)

First off, the new Google Earth 6 is amazing. I've got a question about Streetview 6. Tried to load it today (and I know SQUAT about how to do that) Two, a Binary file is just the install file. You may have closed the window that asked if you wanted to run the install, if you saved the file it shoul...

ZeroLT1

Anyone help me out on this? I've never really used em so I'm not sure what or where to look. heehee

ZeroLT1

I'm trying two big ones this year, with heat though.

Good luck, hopefully they make it.

ZeroLT1

Awesome! Very nice!

ZeroLT1

Its not super old.... but I love to drive it.

ZeroLT1

I bought my Butia capitata and Livistona chinensis seeds from www.banana-tree.com. The seeds arrived at my house within ten days. Still waiting for them to pop. But the site seems awesome, they do have tons of stuff.

ZeroLT1

Looks like I may be in for some snow myself on Thursday (the 25th) Ohhh boy, can't wait.

ZeroLT1

Thanks, I'm sure this way everything will survive.

ZeroLT1

UPDATE: I weighed the idea (and the opinions of people smarter than me) along with my friends opinion and we decided to take a safe route. We only separated one small part to see how it would do and re-potted it. <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/56126908@N04/5190592055/" title="P...

Took the words right out of my mouth. Amazing job!

ZeroLT1

Nope no bugs. Thanks Barb. You're very helpful

ZeroLT1

I actually just noticed a bit of white stuff on the palm? Here is a picture. Any ideas?

ZeroLT1

This bossy old woman will shut up now. Barb No really, I appreciate your response. I'm glad to have advice flying in. Its better then having me kill my own tree. My friend is honestly old enough to be my mother and has all sorts of plants in, and outside, of her home. She gets paid to landscape on ...

ZeroLT1

Well I'll talk more about it with my friend tomorrow. She has done gardening and landscaping for a long time. I do trust her if she says shes done it before. Would there be a right way to do it if any? Sorry to worry you. EDIT: If need be I can take it up to my local nursery to see if they could do ...

ZeroLT1

Yeah, thats what I have read. I plan to keep this guy as a houseplant. I'll post more pictures tomorrow when it's in the nice new pot.

ZeroLT1

I just got this today. Looks like a good deal, and seems healthy. http://s2.postimage.org/26qu4t2ec/Pygmy_Palm_3.jpg http://s2.postimage.org/26qvscew4/Pygmy_Plam.jpg Whoever planted it originally must have planted 9 million seeds in the same pot, as you can see. But I suppose that works out good for...

ZeroLT1

I finally decided and I bought a PDP. I see the spines and they really don't bother me, and it looks very nice. Thank you again for all the help everyone!

Oh, also I will be posting pictures of it in the photo gallery.

ZeroLT1

Ok, thanks for the help.

ZeroLT1

Where exactly are said spines?

ZeroLT1

I've got:

9 Livistona chinensis
14 Butia capitata

Hoping something will pop

ZeroLT1

Thanks for the advice. I think I am leaning towards the Pygmy Date Palm. They did look nice, and if they seem to do well with less light that would prolly be a smart choice for now.

ZeroLT1

Well hopefully Friday I will pick something up. Thanks for the advice. I'll be sure to share pictures.

ZeroLT1

Thank you. I'm glad I got a good buy. I found it in a Meijer surprisingly.

ZeroLT1

I just bought this Sago and potted it for my mother

just thought I'd share.

ZeroLT1

I was just curious if anyone knew where to get some dreamscene backgrounds of palms (or short HD videos of them in a .wmv).

ZeroLT1

I have decided I would like to by a nice palm for the indoors. I took a look at the local greenhouse today and found some Sago's (yeah I know its not really a palm. :) ), a few pygmy date palms, a lovely Chinese fan palm, which I would get but I don't have room for a 7 footer at the moment. They sai...

ZeroLT1

Dang, that looked like such an awesome tree to. Any more Butia's?

ZeroLT1

I would like to see more recent pictures if you might be able to share a link to them.

Please and thank you.

ZeroLT1

I just looked some up. I like the one with the horse. haha

ZeroLT1

I seen this episode of Ghost Adventures and I found it pretty interesting, just thought I'd share it with all you.

I did happen to buy this at a local nursery in Vidalia, Ga:

viewtopic.php?p=28939#28939

ZeroLT1

Well seeing as where I am going to be living in an apartment for a while I'll probably keep it in a pot, so then once I get a house I'll plant it right in my front yard for all to see.

ZeroLT1

Awesome thanks, will do.

ZeroLT1

While I was visiting the place and people I am going to be living with in Atlanta I happened to grab a Pindo while I was down there. Just wanted to share
