Separate section on weeds?

Just a passing thought. Can there be a separate forum for weed problems?

Hi Dinu! It was discussed a while back and decided that since any plant can be considered a weed under different situations that they should not be seperate. Life would be simpler if weeds would segregate themselves from the rest of the garden in real life too...but they do not seem to want to cooperate there either!

Zany, I *think* what Dinu is talking about is a discussion forum dedicated to weeds. You're correct about weeds in the PDB - plants are noted as invasive when appropriate. In fact, there are several hundred of 'em in there now (guess they grow like...uh...weeds! *grin*)

Dinu, this is definitely a question for Dave. Could the weed questions be posed on Garden Talk or the ID forum? Or could/should pests and diseases be expanded to include weeds? What kind of topics are you thinking about? (That will help Dave figure out if a new forum is needed or if there's already a forum that could be put to use.)

I think having Pests/Diseases expanded makes sense. It's where we go when we have a nemesis we're trying to combat, right?

We could rename that forum to the "Garden Enemies" forum. :)

I like that!!!!

Sounds good to me :)

I don't know about the Garden Enemies name....Every non gardening spouse out there would have his/her photo posted !
And I already showed you Bob...who would definately be at the top of the list!

go_vols, you have correctly understood what I had precisely meant.

Dave, how about renaming that forum as "Garden Foes"?

GW, yes, that's where we normally click when we have problems.

Zany, indeed, a 'weed' is a relative term. This is where we know which plant is a weed to the individual as well.

It's done!

Wow!!
:)
