Yuck! Almost all my radishes are unedidable. They give me something similar to heart burn. But at least I know. Mayabe I can still start some to cool them off. Thanks

I planted a few seeds of Kolrabi this year but had very poor germination so only like 5 out of 25 grew. I am sure it was just too hot in Early Sept to have planted them. They are not ready yet and I have never had one but I look forward to them. And yay on the quick asian greens and down with...
So I am not tryin to brag (ok so yes I am, I am a southern northern eded in who has finally succeed in having a fall garden, but I digress). So my peppers and eggplant are still producing. My little thai hot pepper that I thought was a serrano is a delight. I would say it started to change...
I loved 25 you were old enough to know better but still young enough to not care. So get all your naughtyness in so when 30 comes around you will have all the naughty out your system (except for occasional flareups).
I tried a bunch of new tomatoes but they got blight or something. One tomato that did really well was a lime green salad. Excellent for salsa. I did a richmond green apple for my cuke this year and it was uber delish. I am torn though. It tasted superior to the regular marketmore variety...
So I bought a nice size about 8 ft Ligustrum today on clearance at lowes. It was only like 20 bucks and I thought it was a good deal at the time. But I didn't know what it was when I bought it I thought it would be a large shrub big tree and the guy said it smelled good. So high on the smell...

wow that is one big plant/flower. was it meant to be that big? Will they all grow theat big? I got some cosmos seeds in a trade that I wanted to plant next spring and I was trying to figure out if they will all turn that way. Oh and please post pics of the blooms.
hey dickie, can you tell me more about how to grow them.
I want to plant a few this next spring. I would be planting them in a 8x4 raised bed. I have not had a lot of luck maintaining vining plants in the beds (cukes and watermelons) usually they completely take over and I am left with a jungle.
Have you thought of Weight Watchers? I don't mean to push them but after years and years of seeing the scale move up and diet after failed diet, the scale is finally going in the right direction. It is not a diet or something I will stop when I decided to leave the program. I really feel like...
I was just thinking about how lucky I am to be a southern gardener. When I lived in Montana I got maybe from June -August to garden and that was it. And as I read all the posts about frost it makes me really thankful for not having to worry so much about it. My fall garden should go into...
I have a long winter to go but I have the hopes of a new body/life next spring. I am going to stay on my WW plan until I become a life time member. I am lucky though. I don't have the dark days of norther latitudes. And I can grow most cool weather crops with some care until maybe January...
The local water park (in Baton Rouge. LA) was closing for the season and so they sell all their hibicus for 5 buck or 4 if you buy over 10 so me and a guy at work bought a couple. I ended up with a Pink Semiole, a Painted Lady, and a Edward la Plante, and a mystery one. My favorite is going...
Or even the white clover weed that grows in my yard. I think it is so pretty! And the bee just love it. I think it looks way better than the lawn but my DH thinks it is a weed.
