The bulbs I planted in fall are growing early – is this OK?

I live in Kansas City, and our weather has been so mild this year. Trees are budding; grass is growing; and now my blubs (daffodils, crocuses, windflowers, allium, etc) are sprouting. They were even sprouting right before Thanksgiving. I planted according to zone and the directions from the place I bought them, but I’m concerned I’m going to have more green than flower this spring. Any ideas?

We had nearly a week of colder weather. 40s at night. Will my garden survive?

I planted tomatoes, cucumbers, bush beans, peppers (bell), eggplant, onions, and strawberries along with a few herbs. I covered the eggplant and peppers on the coldest nights. But the cucumbers aren’t looking the greatest and the bean’s leaves look pale. The tomatoes are fine. They just seem to have not grown an inch. We had a really warm day yesterday and I noticed one of the tomato plants has flowers on it already! It’s only 10″ high! This can’t be good, can it? Should I fertilize everything? When I planted I added compost manure to the soil, but I’m not sure this was enough so seeing how stressed the plants were by the cold. I normally don’t fertilize until I start seeing the fruit forming. For the most part the onions look good and so do the strawberries and herbs.
What should I do about the rest? The weather looks warm for here on out. And what’s up with that tomato plant flowering so early?

How can I safely prune my Chinese Fan Palm?

When I moved into my apartment, the “garden” area outside my door was nothing but a spot of dirt with lint all over it. I decided to plant a chinese fan palm and a few colorful flowers in that area to make this place seem more like a home. I expected this palm to grow upward, but it appears to only be growing outward. One branch will soon be protruding into my walk-space. How can I trim this thing back without killing it or opening it up for disease? Bear in mind that it’s November in the South. The weather is in constant flux. Any suggestions?

question regarding econommics class..please help me out?

The supply of apples is determined by the size of orchards, the number of apple trees, and the quantity of apples per tree. The quantity of apples per tree depends on the weather and the amount of fertilizer and pesticides that farmers use. Given all these factors that affect supply, is the long-run supply for apples likely to become more elastic or more inelastic than the short-run supply?

A. The long-run supply for apples will be more inelastic.

B. The long-run supply for apples will be more elastic.

C. The elasticity of supply will be the same in the short and long run.

What flowers grow well in small containers?

I live in an apt. in West Texas. We have very little space, so I’d like to hang window-box type planters over the balcony. Since I am not a great gardener (I have managed to kill all plants I’ve ever owned, incl. cactus and “lucky” bamboo), I need something that is not too complicated to take care of. Something native or very hardy in extreme weather conditions, of course, though I can’t have cactus on the balcony (apt. complex rules). Pleasant smell is a plus, but really I just need something small, pretty, and hard to kill. Any ideas?

I have another crepe Myrtle to the left of it that seems to be doing the same thing. I live in CA so the weather is warm but the trees get plenty of water

Between the time of the nomadic society to the agricultural revolution, society made a significant technological transition. The lives of the two societies revolved around their need for food. The weather conditions affected their ability to get food, and often the weather was hot and desiccated. When the nomadic inhabitants discovered the agricultural way of life, they knew they could have more offspring, because they were confident there would be enough food to feed their families. Although this was not a smooth transition from the nomadic .way of life to an agricultural existence, history would prove the scale of differences is closer than they know. Additionally, that small difference is what they need to help each other to survive.
To be an agricultural member means you live in one place and you uphold yourself by growing your own food and for meat growing your own livestock. The nomads traveled with their food and had no stable residence in one place for thousands of years. Where they hunted and gathered depended on the nature of weather in specific areas. Some animals or plants only like warmer or colder weather so they had to adjust where they went according to that. Both societies felt a strong abhor for each other, but had a need for each other’s support.
The nomadic civilization originated in the Middle East. They lived in this manner for thousands of years. This was including Egypt, the Arabian Peninsula, Israel, Jordan, Lebanon, Syria, Turkey, Iran, and Iraq. The men hunted for their food and the women gathered natural things like vegetables, plants, herbs, and fruit. The agricultural society obtained their food by growing it themselves from animals to berries. The nomads felt that the agricultural society was pampered and had to do little work, but this can easily be proved as something fallacious.
To be part of the agricultural society required diligence and urgency. Their strong work ethics proved this factual. They ran their farms, managed their crops, and took care of their house, and many children. All of these things were important for our interminable need for food. Nomads were often on the move and the agricultural society did not feel this was correct and their way to feed their families was more productive. Neither nomads nor the agricultural revolution liked each other but most of their accusations were maliciously false.
The agricultural revolution grew their food and lived in one place they felt this practice was best and did not like the way of roving with your food source. Without thinking, we impose our ideas as being right on other people, the nomads and agricultural revolution did just that. Their lives were hard worked. They felt this conflict towards each other but without them, the whole trading industry would crash.
As a human population, they were pretty much the same. They both had a need for each other in business. The two cultures traded items and received gifts for help. They both have a struggle for their natural necessities of life. Moreover, both have the same ideas for survival. The agricultural populace and the nomadic society needed to come to an agreement that without each other their existence is devastated.
THIS IS ABOUT THE NOMADIC SOCIETY COMPARED TO THE AGRICULTURAL REVOLUTION.
