Yeah just see if they're viable. Soaking will usually help to see if the seeds can be planted. And...I suppose you could plant them indoors but they'll need a place with lots of sun. And the planter must be big enough for them I guess, since plants tend to spread and root a lot. If the plants grow tall enough, you might need to get some bamboo or like a yardstick to keep the plant from tilting over because of the weight. Also, don't forget to fertilize. You can just mash the eggshells from your daily eggs into it. Just...my mom told me that if there is salt on the egg shells (because boiling eggs usually requires you to add salt in the water so the eggs are less likely to explode), the salt is bad for plants. So make sure that the egg shells you use as fertilizer don't have salt on them. Also, it might take away for the peppers to be ripe enough to eat. The baby peppers my mom planted were red and orange/yellow versions but we saw peppers dangling from the plant for the longest time and we wondered why they weren't the same colour as the ones my mom planted. It was only once it started getting cooler, ie. autumn, that they finally changed from the green colour they had to the brilliant reds my mom had originally planted.

Anyways, I think that's about it...

LOL YOU SHOW THAT EXTERMINATOR WHO'S BOSS!

-makes notes- I never knew you could use eggshell as fertilizer.. i been letting Zeke eat them o3o

You just crush them up and put them on top the soil? OAO

The sun rises in the east and our living room window faces north.. mom's bedroom faces west but the woods outside her window keep sunlight from fully entering.. I hope the livingroom gives them enough light.. if not I'll get a plant light >x>


^(OAO)^ DK will!!!
Trying to figure out a way to take this oxygen concentration machine outside for mom >x>, I dun wanna sit in the hallway and I doubt the landlady would like it either.. xD

Well its technically considered compost right? Like all organic material, it can break down into the soil. Egg shells are good because they contain calcium and, just like how calcium is good for our own bones, they're also good for plants as well.

Yup! If you have a mortar and pestle, you can just crush them in there. Or really, you can crush them anyway you like. xD

Hm...well I dunno, I've never tried to plant actual food type items indoors. Normally they'd be taken outside, possibly planted into the ground, to give them more room to grow. On top of that, watering and fertilizing, getting sunlight and whatnot would be easier. I'm thinking that pepper plants might grow to be around the same size as tomato plants, and those can get pretty large and you'd need special tomato cages to support them. The pepper plants my mom planted were for baby peppers so the plants were smaller. Anyway, if they get larger, they'll tend to fall over because of the weight so just remember to prop them up with something or they might break.

Don't those oxygen tanks usually have wheels? There's also like mini oxygen tanks that can be taken out if you decide to leave the house. At least, that's how it is with my grandmother.

There are the tanks and there are the concentration machines. Tanks are for when you're going out shopping or to a dr appointment. The concentration machine is for at home use.

Her tanks are empty so we gotta get the concentration machine outside some how... as we can't be indoors. xp


I'll need to use a rolling pin >w>, no mortar and pestle here.. kinda wish I had one, they look fun to use xD

I'll make it happen! O3O
Can't plant our stuff outside here.. neighbor kids would destroy them.. like how the nobles destroy the slummers gardens in mah story! QAQ

Ohh, I see.

Well really, smashing it with a blunt object is fine. Maybe even a hammer, take out your anger at the egg shells lol.

Could you...keep the planters outside then? Like just move them in and out of the house or something. Or keep them closer inside the house where you can see them...I dunno...

We're in an apartment, second floor, there is no putting things outside for us.

People on the first floor try to put little flower pots outside just to have the landlady yell at them or for them to go missing all together.


I could use some shell smashing xD mom's been aggravating me all morning.

Bug dude FINALLY came.
Go figure, mom and I heard right, landlady is just a bitch.
He did say to move everything we could into the kitchen as he wouldn't be spraying in there. look at that =w=

he said my room was beautifully done with how I pulled stuff out.

He also said, he only found the one dead one, and we haven't seen any live ones, so he was just going to spray the bed rooms and come back again for 1 more treatment then we're done. <3 We weren't infested.

Oh...XD well too bad I guess. If you were on at least a ground floor....or had a balcony...ah well.
Wow, you've got really nice neighbors...and landlady...xD;;

XD GET TO SMASHIN'!

And finally! And also very lucky of you too, to not be infested. Now you're that much closer to sleeping in your own bed!

I gave in and slept in my own bed last night. My legs were swelling up from sleeping in the chair for too long x-x like.. badly, almost time for a hospital trip swollen...


Speaking of 'nice' neighbors. The people upstairs, they often vacuum late at night.. like 10PM-3AM late... I decided to vacuum about 7:30AM this morning and they're here stomping and slamming on the floor trying to get me to stop.. I turned the vacuum off, emptied the canister, then turned it back on x'D Like you don't get to break sound curfew by vacuuming late at night and then bitch when we vacuum early in the morning. Go a head and complain, we'll let loose every complaint we have on you people.


As for the bugs, the pro was all "If your landlady wasn't standing there watching my every move that day, I would have just ignored that one dead bug I found"

=w= He seemed pissed that she was treating us like we were infested even though we weren't

Wow, that sounds kinda...serious...ono;;

ROFLMAO, nice passive aggressive behavior! I give you a thumbs up for that! XD
We sometimes have this one man, around mid morning, he'd start karaoke-ing and singing those 'soulful' ballad type songs and he just sounds like a wounded cow. XD my mom and I just laugh but its also verrry annoying.

Wow...XD well hey, might as well do what you're getting paid for lol.

We let the people upstairs slide because Dee is like.. autistic.. like 2 year old in an adult body, tantrums and screaming, and attacking people... stuff like that. so we let it slide, even the late night vacuuming because hey, she probably spilled something.


Every other neighbor who hears her fits and stuff, the complain. We don't.. so common courtesy please D:<


(Just gonna repost this here from Cat's thread xD)

Bug guy sprayed today. He was sooo nice, which was hard to tell the day we met him because the landlady pretty much talked for him.

I told him how she told us we had to clear out the kitchen too after he told us to put most of our stuff in there and he rolled his eyes. Said she thinks she knows everything when she doesn't.

He believes the dead bug he found was just a traveler that clung to mom then died not long after getting into her bed. We haven't seen any others so just in case he sprayed mom's room, said mine wasn't needed as none were found in mine but I asked him to spray there anyway for my own sanity x-x

Because he only sprayed the bedrooms, we were allowed to stay inside the apartment, just had to keep the bedroom doors closed and stay out of them for 4-5 hours.

I just finished putting the bedbug cover on mom's new mattress thinger and setting up her oxygen and CPAP. ovo got it call connected together >:D

I CAN WATCH MAH SHOWS AGAIN!

I gotta go put the cover on my mattress now.

He even told me I did good with the DE QAQ Landlady made me feel terrible when it came to the DE... and she stressed us out for no reason acting like one dead bed bug meant we had an infestation over here. -sniffles-
