Overwatering could be just as problematic as underwatering, here are signs you can watch for on for each of these situations;

™

Leaves turn brown close to leaf margins and in between the veins or have dead patches in the middle. On lilies, generally the lower leaves are affected first, and when the soil is tested, it is found to be acidic. Leaf burn and leaf scorch occur when leaf cells overheat. Leaf scorch generally refers to browning and tissue death close to leaf margins and in between veins although leaf burn generally refers to dead patches that occur in the middle of the leaf. Both are caused by dehydration. When leaves dry out, the amount of water that evaporates is reduced and the leaves then overheat. Occasionally entire leaves or shoots are damaged. A number of problems might trigger leaf burn or leaf scorch. Leaf scorch may develop on lilies when they are being grown in acid soil having a pH lower than 6.5.

Underwatering plants will cause a plant to develop leaf burns and leaf scorch because the plants roots cannot find sufficient water. Plants growing in dry, salty, frozen soils or plants with limited rooting space may not get enough water either. A plants roots naturally reach out to absorb any water that is available to it in the surrounding area it is planted in. If no water or very little moisture is found the plant then becomes stressed and damage occurs. A plant can survive, if watered within a short period, but long term dehydration will cause too much damage and the plant will exhaust itself and die off.

Overwatering, and poorly drained soils can trigger leaf burn or leaf scorch as well. Roots need oxygen to function correctly. Wet soils low in oxygen trigger root death or root rot. The poorly drained soil or clay soil, keeps the roots from getting enough oxygen to the plant along with an accumulation of too much water which will cause the plant to drowned. In some cases, leaf scorch or burn occurs as the plant begins to die. The roots begin to die, they are not healthy enough to reach for any moisture, the plant then dehydrates because much less water is absorbed.

Wind and heat can also cause dehydration in plants. Hot, windy conditions trigger dehydration issues even when the soil is moist. Wind and heat cause the water to evaporate from the leaves very rapidly, so much so, that the moisture cannot be replaced.

Freeze damage will quickly cause plant leaves to turn dark brown or black. When the foliage freezes, the leaf cells then rupture or dry out and quickly die.

Other factors include diseased or damaged roots. If a plants roots are diseased or damaged then once again, the roots are not healthy enough to search for any surrounding moisture. The accumulation of salt within a plants leaf tissue can also cause scorch or burning. Once a plant is damaged it will not recover. Keep plants properly watered to eliminate further harm. If feasible, shade plants throughout really hot weather, and hose down foliage a couple of times a day. Protect shade-loving plants by providing adequate shade. Make certain the soil is moist when it freezes, and decrease chances of dehydration resulting from frozen soils by applying mulch close to the base of the plant. If lilies are growing in Dank Vape Carts Online soil having a pH below 6.5, add ground dolomitic limestone to decrease its acidity and fertilize with a bulb slow-release plant food.

Overwatering harms all flowering plants, particularly those requiring well-drained soil. If the soil is continuously wet, the leaves will turn light green or yellow. Leaf edges might turn brown, and some of the leaves may die. In some cases the plant is stunted. Flowering is poor. If you pull the plant up out of the ground, the roots will be soft, mushy and rotted.

Overwatering is a serious and common issue that frequently results in the decay and death of plant roots. Roots need oxygen to function normally. Oxygen is contained in tiny air spaces or pores in the soil. When water is applied to the soil, the air is pushed out from the soil pores and replaced with water. If this water cannot drain correctly or is continuously reapplied, the soil pores remain filled with water. The roots cannot absorb the oxygen they require and they begin to decay. Since the roots continue to rot, they are much less able to supply the plant with nutrients or take up the water. Therefore, permit the soil to dry slightly in between waterings. It is also critical to enhance the soil drainage. Should you have heavy, poorly drained soil, use flowers which will grow in wet soil. Here is a list of flowers you can use, astilbe, bugbane, cardinal flower, ferns, Japanese and Siberian iris, Joe-Pye weed, marsh marigold, monkey flower, New England aster, and sweet white violet.

I have a new love -- and it's not a man or a house or a car. It's an edgy Showtime television suburban satire, "Weeds", in which Mary Louise Parker plays a widowed soccer mom, Nancy Botwin, in a fictional subdivision of Los Angeles called Agrestic. Nancy struggles with the sudden death of her husband from a heart attack and agonizes how she'll support her family in their upper-class lifestyle. Not having any discernable job skills, Nancy discovers the lucrative income in being the local neighbor pot dealer.

The show is quirky, irreverent, and raunchy. The dysfunctional family dynamics are hysterical, especially when her unemployed pot-head brother-in-law, Andy, arrives on her doorstep. Her interactions and affection for her supplier, a black ghetto family headed by matriarch Heylia James, and Heylia's unwed pregnant daughter and ne'er-do-well son, Conrad, are a stark contrast to her daily life in Agrestic. And, the broad social and political statements that are constant undercurrents in the series are really just right on the money.

This show is a big shift for me -- I'm probably the only person my age who's never done any type of drug -- so admitting I love a show about a pot-dealing suburban mom is strange, I admit. What's most fun for me to watch is Nancy's development as a entrepreneurial businesswoman who's going to do what it takes to be the most successful weed dealer in Agrestic. There's not a lot of difference between Nancy and me in the quest to build successful businesses, except that my business is legal, of course, and I don't have to dodge bullets in drive-by shootings at my supplier's house.

Here are some great lessons on building a business from suburban pot mom Nancy Botwin:

1. Fish where the fish are. Due to her friendship with her accountant, Doug Wilson (played by Kevin Nealon), and his group of friends, Nancy quickly realizes that Agrestic is a wonderful market for her product. She finds a great source of pot and is easily able to sell it, as her upscale target market is eager to buy and can easily afford her prices.

Lesson: Know your target market. Are they male or female? What age group? What industry? What socio-economic group? Where do they hang out on- and off-line? What do they read? To what groups and associations (real and virtual, personal and professional) do they belong? How much money do they make? Can they easily afford your product or service?

2. It's all about benefits, not features. Doug discovers a cheap source of medical marijuana in a clinic in LA and thinks he's discovered a gold mine. However, in order to use the clinic, he has to get a prescription for medical marijuana from a shady physician and then drive an hour into the city every time he needs a refill. Nancy offers him the opportunity to buy the same stuff locally, without the drive, and no prescription needed.

Lesson: People do business with you because you can help them solve a problem. They care little about how you solve it (the features of the solution). They just want you to make the problem go away so that they have one less thing to worry about (the benefits of doing business with you).

3. Understand the needs of your target market. Nancy takes a trip to LA to check out the medical marijuana clinic, and discovers a sheer cornucopia of pot, available in more varieties than she'd ever imagined. This visit makes her realize that she's buying the bottom-of-the-barrel weed and gives her supplier a list of the "good stuff" that her clients really want. Then, to give her clients a better high for their buck (and enable her clients to hide their marijuana use), she begins to package the pot in various baked goods that she makes in her home kitchen. One client cleans her out of baked goods in one visit.

Lesson: Give your clients what they want, not what you think they need. Many service business owners head into the marketplace and have no idea if they offer a product or service that the public wants. Or, they offer what they think is good for a client rather than what will solve a client's pressing problem. Do your market research to understand the needs and problems of your target market.

4. The failure of most businesses is due to undercapitalization. Nancy's personal expenses are exceeding her income, and she approaches her supplier, Heylia, to give her inventory on credit. Heylia laughs in her face, but after Nancy begs, she's permitted to hock her leased Land Rover and multi-carat wedding ring with Heylia to get the quantity of pot that she needs for the week.

Lesson: Being self-employed is a financial roller-coaster ride. Have financial reserves in place before you start your business so that you can pay your bills until you begin making a profit. And, if you come up short of cash, try negotiation with your suppliers or vendors for more favorable payment terms.

5. Slow and steady wins the business growth race. Nancy becomes heady with her sales success in her suburb and begins to eye other markets so she can make
