Hi, I am in Terrebonne and generally have a pretty successful garden every year. I plant onions, lettuces, spinach, carrots, radish, beans, peas, potatos, corn, pumpkins, winter squash, summer squash, cucmbers, tomatos, peppers, cantaloupe, watermelon, eggplant, brussel sprouts, broccoli...

Thanks GardeNerd, I really enjoyed your photos. The grapes in particular have me excited about my project. I had previously read that the dwarf apples were good but that the stone fruits were lacking and that with active pruning of standard size trees it would be fairly easy to keep the size...

We are getting ready to put in an approx 70X100 foot orchard area plus grape vines and one end of it dedicated to berries. I am looking for opinions on which is better dwarf or standard fruit trees. I live in zone 5. I like the idea of dwarfs for easier care, less space, can plant a bigger...

I am so sorry that happened to you. i have always been afraid to use gasoline but I did try it last year - I will never use it again.

This isn't a halloween game but it is certainly a fall game. I got 36 on my first try. I just want to thank you all because I have really found this thread, the information and the photos very enjoyable. http://www.ferryhalim.com/orisinal/g2/applegame.htm

The kitties are so beautiful. What lovely feline families you all have.

Paisley is an awesome looking cat and I like the rock too.

When I am driving home I can see my sunflowers from a quarter mile away welcoming me back. I am always sad to see them go - but already looking forward to next years.

I am glad to hear the raspberry reviews. I am planning to put in a berry patch next year. I already have some patio blueberries and am planning to plant strawberries and raspberries. Deena

I have been tarping them at night and it has worked so far. At this point I have harvested about 1/2 of them. We are due for lows in the low 20's in the next few days and my experience has been that when it gets that cold the tarp doesn't offer enough protection. I also use some large...

Just an update - the tree seems to be making it. I gave up all hope and quit watering it or even looking at it about 3 weeks ago. It was totally brown and crunchy. Tonight I noticed lots of new green leaves on it. I really can't believe it is alive and getting new leaves. Unfortunately it's...
