What was life like in the 1960s?

Was cool.

Petrol was cheaper. A room only needed a couple of power points. There wasn't an electrical gadget to do everything. When something broke it was repaired, not thrown away. When you got sick it took longer to get over it, because medicine wasn't as advanced. No internet so, the news papers had complete control over what you were told. Drugs were only just starting to become part of the scene so you could leave your door unlocked with very little risk of being ripped off. Mothers looked after their kids, instead of being forced to neglect them, to feed an ever expanding economy. People didn't walk along the streets swearing and drunk, as in those days, you would get a punch in the mouth for that sort of behavior. In the developed countries, the sight of seeing children sleeping on the streets was basically unheard of. People were more idealistic. Even if most of this was the result of being blissfully unaware about what was really going on in the world around them, I must admit though, there was alot about the 1960's that was enjoyable.

Why do tundra have very large trees?

Tundra regions do not typically have large trees due to their harsh climatic conditions, including extreme cold, short growing seasons, and permafrost, which limits root development. The dominant vegetation in tundra areas consists of low shrubs, grasses, and mosses that can withstand these conditions. The lack of nutrient-rich soil and the harsh winds further inhibit the growth of larger trees. Therefore, the environment is not conducive to supporting large tree growth.

How do you grow tea?

Tea comes from the leaves of tea plant (camellia sinensis). Tea grows best in a humid subtropical climate, but can be grown in tropical regions as well. It generally cannot be grown in cold regions or arid to semiarid regions.

It can be grown outside if you live in a warm climate with sufficient rainfall (zone 8). However you can successfully grow it in other climates by use of a greenhouse or by growing the plant inside where it will be out of danger from frost. In borderline areas, you can plant the tea plant in a warm, sheltered area.

You can buy a tea plant, grow a plant from a cutting, or even from seeds. Seeds take about four weeks in order to germinate in the damp at a warm temperature.

Tea will need an acid soil in order to grow (pH4.5-7). Many places will sell acidified soil (or soil additives). You should also be careful since most tap water is slightly basic and will decrease the acidity of the soil over time.

Soil should be well drained and sandy. Too much moisture around the plant will encourage the growth of detrimental molds and mildews so it is best to water only as much as needed. If planted outside then some protection needs to be put around it on rainy days to prevent the plant from getting too wet.
