What does Stack Overflow consider as a Good Question?
These are some of the questions I have asked, after my account was reopened to ask questions. And I was very careful in asking them. But yet someone or the other downvotes it? I want to know the reason why? If there aren't appropriate reasons...
@Braiam Lol, read bible in lolspeak, not english. Many better.
For me, in Chrome 37.0.2062.94 m, the text goes full screen, but the rest of the page remains -- I can even continue to edit this comment. FYI While the text is Fullscreen the whole page is rendered grey like this question is due to its heavy downvote. Other examples on this page are working fine. (This did cause me to note the scroll bar remains even where the Fullscreen otherwise works correctly.) — Mark Hurd1 min ago

As was also pointed out on How to keep my roses fresh?, you should cut the stems at an angle under running water to prevent air from getting in the stem. Alternatively, some sites actually suggest cut...
@Lix Basically, no. The sugars only support bacterial life which may not be healthy; plants don't digest simple sugars like sucrose
It has been awhile but I used to be a floral shop manager for a large grocery store chain. My suppliers told me not to use those little 'packets' that always come with fresh cut flowers. I did some experiments and flowers lasted longer in just plain, cold water.
Just two thoughts on this. First, if we're wanting to arrive at a 30:1 C to N ratio and we're, say, using coffee grounds (20:1) and leaves (50:1), then we can calculate this like so:
Let N be the percentage of of the total that will be coffee grounds.
Therefore 100 - N is the percentage of the ...
Mostly for future reference, is it helpful to add sugar or other things to the water meant for cut flowers?
There seems to be conflicting data from different sources. See How can I preserve a bouquet of flowers for two days before gifting them?

@animuson - Hi there :) I've already flagged a post... just wanted to bring this to your attention: stackoverflow.com/users/3993628/mamta - looks like this user is all (and only) about self (off-site) promotion...
