Would you trust this?

They're well within date, but the packet seems slightly puffed. I can't see any condensation and they smell fine. I'm not sure if this is a sign of spoilage or just an over inflated package? Very nervous because prawns.

I bought a minecraft realms subscription from Nintendo. Nintendo took my money and sent a receipt but I still don't have access to realms. Switch lite.

Have you experienced this? I have contacted Xbox, Microsoft, Nintendo and Mojang and each one sends me to another for support. Nintendo are the ones that have my money. It's a switch lite.

Is there any way to contact support in the UK? Money taken and can't use subscription. Nintendo switch lite.

I really need help. There is no phone number that actually rings through, the chatbot just loops you back to FAQs, and every “contact us” option sends you straight back to the FAQs again. I cannot find any way on my console or on mobile to request a refund.

I bought a Minecraft Realms subscription on my Switch and it simply does not work. I’ve spent hours troubleshooting, tried every fix imaginable, contacted Microsoft, followed everything they told me, and NOTHING works. Nintendo says I have an active subscription, but I clearly cannot use it.

I’ve just bought a new Switch 2 which is still sealed in the box, and I’m honestly at the point where I’m ready to send it back, do a chargeback, and walk away from Nintendo entirely.

I hate dealing with companies that are quick to take your money and put every roadblock in place to avoid customer support.

Has anyone dealt with this before or know how to actually get help?

What causes tomatoes to brown like this? The leaves are fine.

The leaves show no sign of blight.it looks like a bruise more than colouring and it's on multiple tomatoes on just the one plant. We have had crazy hot temps this week but I've kept them well watered. Costuloto Fliorentino.

*I see people saying this is normal but it really it more bruise like when you look closely and they are still very small, I'd be surprised with them ripening at the size of a penny. They're supposed to be beef sized. I grew them last year and they didn't do this.

Help! My pumpkins are too big for my space.

So I accidentally bought Connecticut Field pumpkin seeds without realising how massive they are. I’ve only grown compact squash types before such as baby bear and Uchi kuri, and these vines look like they’ll swallow my whole raised bed leaving me no room for the rest of my harvest. I only have a small growing space.

The seedlings are already started and growing well, so it's too late to back out now. I’m thinking of planting them in a spare 60L potato grow bag instead and feeding heavily, then letting the vines run across my gravel as much as they want since I do have a large gravel area. Has anyone tried this? Will it work?

Winecaps?

I'm fairly certain they are since I inoculated this raised bed but I'll never not be too cautious. First flush of the year. Grown on bark chips and stulch, England.

I sowed another seed from the same batch last year and the same thing happened. My other squashes are all fine. Disease?

It's an Uchi Kuri. Last year's grew a bit, produced one very small fruit but failed to thrive and had yellow curled leaves. I'm guessing this whole batch of seeds is compromised?

*It might not be clear from the pic but this is the tiniest little plant, it only has two true leaves and it's just over two weeks old. It is not root bound.

*I haven't explained myself well. To clarify, I have about a dozen types of squash all growing under the same conditions and they are all doing well. They will all be going outside soon. I am quite sure they don't need food/water. I'm a seasoned grower so I know all the basics. ONLY the Uchi Kuri from this particular batch of seeds does this and did the exact same thing last year from the same batch of seeds. I am looking for a Virus or a Disease ID.

Last year someone told me my Uchi Kuri looked like it had Squash mosaic Virus and I would have agreed but it's my understanding we don't have that in the UK? And it doesn't transmit via seed?

These are only plugs and will not be staying in this pot. I am waiting for the weather to warm up enough to put them in the ground. (Not if they're diseased though)

Worship etiquette help. Feeling embarrassed after a comment in online meeting, did I do something wrong by drinking water?

​

I’ve been attending unprogrammed online meetings for a while, and today something happened that left me feeling quite embarrassed and unsure of myself.

During worship, I took a sip of water from a mug. I have a medical condition that means I need to drink frequently, so it’s second nature to keep water nearby, I didn't even think about it. My microphone was muted, and most people had their eyes closed, so I didn’t think it would disturb anyone. Other than this I was sat still like everyone else.

After the meeting, someone raised, speaking to the whole group, but clearly in reference to me *as only I had done it, that it’s frowned upon to “drink tea” during worship. This turned into a long discussion about how doing so is considered disrespectful. I didn't speak up, or explain myself, I just listened. I was surprised, as I didn’t know there were unwritten etiquette rules about this.

Now I’m feeling a lot of shame and anxiety. I’m autistic, so I often miss unspoken social rules, and I’m worried I’ve done something wrong without realising. I also feel a bit hurt, as the comment felt passive‑aggressive and has left me reluctant to attend again.

Did I actually do something wrong by drinking? Is this really considered disrespectful in Quaker worship? I’d really appreciate some guidance.

Every year I attempt to dig up my favourite Dahlias and store them. I've tried every method in the book and every year the ones I dig up rot and the ones I leave in the ground, expecting to die, do just fine and come back.

I lost my incredible Kelvin Floodlight and Purple Haze this year and i'm kicking myself for not leaving them in the ground.

I've come to the conclusion that our winters are no longer cold enough to kill off Dahlia (at least not from the Midlands down). I would love to know what your experience has been?

*In response to a lot of the comments, rain doesn't seem to cause an issue for me since they come back every year when left in the ground. I have heavy clay, idk if that makes a difference. I would have thought clay was more risky since it goes boggy in winter.
