Welcome Sharon! I just started with the whole greenhouse deal. Last year I used two raised beds hoop houses and I loved them. This year I now have a greenhouse. It is a 6x8 harbor freight greenhouse. I am planning on using it for different things. One to start seedling in, to extend my growing...

This probably belongs in the herb section but I am also growing an Herbal Tea garden. Catnip Chamomile Lemon Balm Wild Bergamot Echinacea Peppermint Lemon Mint Anise Hyssop Then I am also growing my regular as well. Oregano, Basil, Lemon Basil, Sage, Chives, Parsley, and Marjoram. Hoping to...

This stuff doesn't bother me but a couple of weeks ago I found my clothes catalog in the bathroom and I found that very disturbing. :hu

I don't use them either, but I recently started some seeds that were a couple of years old and they were just on the kitchen counter under a light. The day I cook a crock pot of chilli next to the seeds, I had a ton of them pop up. Maybe even a space heater near your seeds for a couple of hours...

That was awesome. I love Paul Harvey too .

My son watches Alaska State troopers and they have towns like that on there all the time and they do not look like gardening towns. I could never live there. Montana would be pushing it.

I am going to get started in March as soon as we get a nice day I am going to put up my hoop houses over my raised beds so the soil starts to warm up. It doesn't pay to do it now though because we are having too much snow. Hard to keep up with.

How about Iceberg lettuce. :lau

Yes very nice. I think I am going to have to wait for the 6 inches of snow to melt before I get too serious about planting. I am going to get some stuff started to put in some hoop houses next month. I like to see someone is able to get some dirt under their nails. I get to live vicarously.

Funny, it's like how two people with blue eyes can't have a baby with brown eyes.... but two people with brown eyes can in fact have a baby with blue eyes. Biology 101, I think it is the most interesting thing in the world.

I am about 2 hours from Steubenville and I am in one of those microclimates where it's always a little colder, a lot windier and over all just special when it comes to weather alerts because we live up in the hills (on top). I love it though, we also get cool breezes when it hot and most of the...

Easy Monty he said an early spring not spring this week and lets face it, those guys in the hats claiming to speak groundhogese probably had a lot to drink, so you maybe gunning for the wrong character. LOL. Here in the Ohio valley February is to winter like August is to summer. March and...

Very nice idea.

Sorry I have a couple of questions. As for what I am planting....everything LOL Golden Bantam Corn, blue lake bush beans, beefsteak tomatoes & moneymaker tomatoes, 3 types cucumbers (pickles and salad), black beauty zucchini, hales best cantaloupe and crimson sweet watermelons, green sprouting...

Good news Monty Phil and Chuck sad spring is on its way. I know it's hard to see with the 6 inches of snow outside. I am in Ohio so I am assuming that we have a similar view out our windows.

I love the smell of garlic. I chopped some up tonight and my hands smell like garlic and I love it. I don't mind the taste either. I can just eat it. I have read that it is recommended to eat between 1/2 - 1 clove of garlic a day to help with some cancers. It is really good for stomach and colon...

I wonder if Whole Food Markets carry them? I know they have potted herbs.

This is would be a great option for me. I am looking for a lower calorie options and cutting the honey with the stevia would be awesome option.

I am with you, I have to really think about stuff before I take the plunge. I have a book the talks about a perennials garlic bed. He only digs up the garlic when he needs it and uses the larges bulds and plants the bulbils and cloves. I put mine into a 8'x4' beds this year and am considering...

Just moved my 4 tier greenhouse with cover into my Harbor Freight greenhouse. It is in there protecting my tomatoes. I will need to get a themometer to check the temps inside the cover. I am very excited about seeing how they do.
