OMG VC....I can't believe the emotional turmoil you're setting up for them, what happens when they (cucumbers, for instance), start to develop both male and female flowers? I really hope you're prepared. xxthe fates lead him who will;him who won't they drag.

Originally posted by veggiechicken View PostI know its a daft question but - When you greet your new seedlings do you regard them as male or female?
Mine are most definitely male - so I say things like "'Morning chaps", or, as I said on another thread - "Hello Big Boy".
Is this a female thing or do you gentlemen treat yours as little ladies, or boys?

Where's your soul, VVG! How can you treat them as casually as if they were a bag of nails. You sow them, give them life, they grow because you water them and watch over them and you dismiss them as common or garden weedlings. Some of my "specials" do have individual names - but I don't have a problem eating them at the end of their days. If they had fur or feathers that would be different......

Originally posted by di View PostThat's reminded me of my chat with DD earlier ( 9 )...she had sex ed at school this week and has decided it's disgusting and never wants to do it. (although I've always been open and honest, I obviously can't have been as graphic as the video). She wondered if there's any other way to have a baby and I explained about IVF but said it's quite expensive. Her reply...' I want to marry a very rich prince then '.

Not as bed as when my ten year old came home and asked me what w****** meant. It was on that same CGI video. How do you start to explain?
I said its nothing for you to worry about yet...forget about it. I was told "I talked to Vaughan about Lego Star Wars instead. The video was boring."
