Lettuce will bolt (or go to seed) when the temperature is too high. Next season start your lettuce indoors 6 to 8 weeks before the first spring frost then transplant outdoors after danger of frost has passed. Harvest your lettuce before it starts growing tall or bolting.

I love Balinese sarongs, but when I wear them, they are floor length, as I'm not very tall. Is it to wear a sarong like that?

If you aren't happy with it, then you can make it shorter.

Why is the ball spun that way under #4? The animation between 4 and 5 is incorrect. The arrow shows an incorrect axis of rotation. The guy in the video below explains it correctly, but the arrow in the animation between 4 to 5 is going in the wrong direction. The ball should rotate clockwise as it goes down the lane, from the bowlers perspective, so the arrow should be pointing up. If the ball spun the way the animation shows, then it would be rotating on an axis perpendicular to the ground, which is not how it should be.

It has been a week since I planted my indoor basil seeds and I have not seen any growing. What can I do to check if they will grow? How much longer should I wait to see growing?

If you do that, the amount of water available for the plant will be too high or too low, depending on how often you water it. It will then cause...

I found a tree growing out of nectarine seed in my yard (I think a squirrel planted it). It has grown to about 18" tall with 3 main stems. Should I cut 2 stems off, or let it grow larger first?

We have 2 birch trees, not weeping, but 'straight'. They are now about 10 feet in height. Some upper branches are leaning quite a bit. Not sure why as we do not have ice or heavy snow storms here.

You can trim those branches off if they are causing a huge issue or you can use string to pull the tree back into its spot.
