Oats have been used to help lift a depressed mood and help people who are withdrawing from addictive drugs or alcohol. ~ In a clinical study in 1968-1969, 6 out of 10 chronic opium addicts gave up the drug after treatment with Oats (2 mls of the tincture, three times a day) over 27-45 days.
When to Plant. Plant begonias in the spring time as they become available in the garden centers (and after the last hard frost in the northern climates). You can also plant them in the fall in parts of the country where it doesn't freeze over the winter.
Best time to plant dahlias in the south is March, early April. You will have best luck with short varieties that get no more than 30 inches tall. You don't need to store the tubers during the colder months. Just leave the tubers in the ground and they should come back the following spring.
