@Shades-of-Oregon, I told my husband and he just seems to think that it's nothing special about the pocket herb planter but I told him it's a compliment take it so he said okay. He's really kinda strange like that 😂
Not on both sides because I only bought one. I bought it about 3 years ago so it's been moved around a lot and I just decided that this is the year for putting it in use. I'm going to try to put herbs in it and yes some spinach lettuce and probably a couple of strawberry plants. I will tell my...
Found a patch of potatoes that I didn't get dug up in the fall so I planted them in the big pallet bed and then went ahead and planted the rest of the potato seeds.
Had to put some stuff around the stairstep bed because Athena got into it and dug some of the soil out. My husband was trying to burn the wood on the big pallet bed but stopped before he caught it on fire due to the shredded paper.
Got most of my big pallet bed filled. Now I need more soil and then it's time for potatoes and hopefully dandelions. I'm thinking about maybe putting my strawberry plants in at the South East corner.
Tomatoes are fairly forgiving plants. That's probably the only plant that I haven't ever killed. If you need anything, advice wise, we're all here for you and so happy to have you here.
Thank you. I'm happy to have them. I hope that you can one day take a step inside the garden world. I love knowing that all I have to do is walk out to the garden and start snacking, AKA (grazing), and I don't really need to eat huge meals that make me feel bloated from too much food. Everything...
I finally got the stairstep bed filled. I planted some squash (deeper than usual), peas, Brussels Sprouts and broccoli. I also planted some radishes in the small bed because my girls decided that I didn't plant my seeds right so they had to fix it for me 🤣🤣🤣
This is the pallet wood bed that my husband and I built over the weekend. It's probably my favorite raised bed yet. I'm trying to figure out a way of coloring it but I want it to be naturally colored and not just weathered. If anyone might have an idea of what I can do to give it some color...
This is the garlic that I sprouted in a jar of water. Of the about 12 or 13 cloves I got 10 to sprout. I planted them in my stairstep raised metal garden bed. I was actually happy with the results. I will keep everyone posted on the progress as well as the next head of garlic that I am currently...
I am going to try some different techniques for seed starting so this year I am going to keep everyone updated on what works best and if it's a total flop. I will do my best to take pictures to post and also identify the methods as well as the plants and basically the who, what, when, where, why...
I was unable to get the garlic planted yesterday do to the wind kicking up. Today I went out and planted the cloves. 10 cloves with green tops and the last one was 3/4 cloves but because only one had a green top I just planted it as is.
Right now I am pondering the idea of going out to the garden and planting in the rain. It's not like I can do much more than get the flu or a cold so I just might be uploading some pictures of the garden area today or tomorrow. I can put my 9 garlic cloves in the bottom of the big raised bed.
