Archive of the Saturday Gardening Thread [Y-not]

May 24, 2015
Yesterday we had a request for a link to past Gardening Threads. As far as I know, there's no archiving system by subject in Pixy's hamster wheel, so I've assembled it by hand. I'm sure I am missing some, but I hope this is of some help. I will try to keep this updated and re-post it periodically.
-- Your devoted servant, Y-not

3 Also, look above you for the real gardening thread.

I'd recommend bookmarking this, but not commenting on it after this weekend b/c of the banninator.

4 I just wanted to get in w/in the top 5.

5 I need the history search for the Starbucks thread where they talked about boycotting it and the logo meaning.

Anyone know or remember that thread?

Posted by: Sponge at May 30, 2015 02:17 PM (ufJE0)

6 I'm sure most (if not all) of you know this this, but DO NOT comment on the old threads.
It is a surefire way to ban yourself accidentally.
