Apricot Trees #741289

Asked March 28, 2021, 9:03 PM EDT

Many years back, I put two apricot trees in my back yard. A few years ago, one got shaded out by neighboring trees and died. I have no idea what apricot I need to plant since I originaly planted a Sunglow and a Moonglow. I do not know which of the two survived. I know I need two separate species. Do you have any suggestions? Regards, Jeffrey W Johnston

Asked January 04, 2021, 10:10 PM EST

Just wondering what type of tree this is. We had a couple when I was growing up and I used to think that they look very bare but I kind of like the look now. It brings back good memories. Thank you in advance. ☺

History of Horse 4H in Oregon #639104

Asked May 27, 2020, 1:26 AM EDT

Hi! I participated in the Clackamas County Horse 4H program from 2007-2016 and I am now a senior at CSU studying equine science. I am taking a class about 4H youth and extension and I have a project where I have to dive into the history of how horse 4H started in Oregon. I haven't been able to find much online, and I was wondering if anyone knew much about the history of how horse 4H began, who helped create it, and just any stories on how the evolution of how horse 4H began in Oregon. Thanks! -Alli

Marshall strawberries not developing #638978

Asked May 22, 2020, 1:56 PM EDT

12 marshall strawberry plants were ordered from Raintree Nursery and arrived in the fall of 2019. 4 plants were put in a new raised bed, 8 were potted in 2 gal containers. Today the foliage is looking great but the berries are not developing. Plants grew stems with blossoms starting 3-4 weeks ago, but after a small "button" starts there is no further growth, and the stems seem to lose their strength and wilt. The plants are in 3 different locations and all have the same problem. I picked and planted these berries in the 1950-1960 era and do not remember this situation. Berries rotting due to wet spring is common, but we"re not getting berries. A call to Raintree Nursey was no help at all.

2 baby boas born with eye deformity #627115

Asked April 30, 2020, 11:01 AM EDT

I have search the Internet for hours upon hours and cannot find any similar deformity nor can any Reptile and/or boa constrictor forums offer me any advice aside from  "just kill them"  . On August  5th, I had my 1st boa litter. I got lucky and produced 6 Sun glow 5 albino and 6 hypo and somehow 0 normals. My question is that I have 2 snakes 1 with both eyes out of its socket and 1 with 1 eye out of the socket with the other eye so far seeming to function normally. They have not fed yet and I am wondering what route do I take?? I have had  a snakes eye come off before due to stuck shed and it healed itself and the snake is completely fine to this day. I am willing to take care of them the eyes seem to be drying out and I am assuming they will fall off and heal over?  I am willing to put the time in to take care of them for ever. Any help would be insanely appreciated thank you in advance for your time. Photos 1 and 3 are of topic.

Also, how to I help torn leaves? Do I just cut them off? If so, where? I don’t want to give up on these things because they are so beautiful.
