Ok, heres the issue-I have to cats one is six years old adopted as a kitten from a shelter, the other a two year old stray cat my dad found at work. She’s a little nuts, her name is Lilly. Lilly some times clean her in the water dish, and other times she trys to wash her toys in the water. We found this self cleaning water dish at a local pet shop, would this be a good idea? Since the water needs to be cleaned alot more then it should.

He says you need to do this in warm weather for outside dogs so the mosquitos won’t lay eggs in the dish.

It would be nice to have my camp stove free for other things and to have a separate kettle for my water…..

I’ve been looking up info for a new water heater and many say they are self- cleaning. Does anyone know if this feature is really necessary or is it just a marketing gimmick?

I am going swiming soon in a pool with chlorine and i’m scared that when I go in my self tanner will come out in the water and the water will turn brown. Is this possible?
also my self tanner is a cream based. so it’s not a spray on.

I am not a fan of water. I tend to forget to drink and don’t like to when I force my self.
Do you have any other ideas besides flavored water? I do like drinking other liquids however that is unhealthy and I don’t do that as much as well.

I have heard of this special box that is very easy to use and requires low maintenence that allows you to grow amazing vegetables and plants – but I don’t recall the name or where to buy it? Any ideas?
Thanks!!

Want to grow 2 Tomatoes & 2 Raspberries. Never grown anything!? http://minigarden.org/self-watering/i-have-4-large-self-watering-pots-on-casters-want-to-grow-2-tomatoes-2-raspberries-never-grown-anything/ http://minigarden.org/self-watering/i-have-4-large-self-watering-pots-on-casters-want-to-grow-2-tomatoes-2-raspberries-never-grown-anything/#comments Sun, 12 Feb 2012 22:48:36 +0000 Mini Gardener http://minigarden.org/self-watering/i-have-4-large-self-watering-pots-on-casters-want-to-grow-2-tomatoes-2-raspberries-never-grown-anything/

I am in an apartment now with a back yard, sunlight, water, etc, etc, but I can’t grow in the ground because my neighbor thinks he owns the universe and doesn’t want anything in the ground but GRASS.

I may go back to Ikea and get a few more pots but I have 4 to start with and I was thinking they were big enough for Tomatoes but I’m not sure how much room Raspberries need.

Would raspberries be able to grow in pots or should I go for something “Dwarf” like a dwarf blueberry?

I’m in ‘Zone 5′, Chicago, IL

Thanks for ANY advice you can provide… I’m a noob at growing anything because I grew up in AZ, where I only got Aloe to grow, and then lived downtown Chicago where my patio was basically a Wind Tunnel, destroying anything I tried to plant.

OH! And I have a HUGE bag of poppy seeds from a local Small Grocery that are said to grow in to beautiful flowers… I’m going to spread them all around my neighborhood. Do you think they will grow?
