Your brother is so darn smart!! :thumbsup

Wow, time flies. Time for this thread again. I added some amendments to my beds. And all of the rain So Cal has gotten is watering them in nicely. I have not thought much beyond that. I have saved several types of heirloom pumpkin and squash seed I would like to plant this year. As well...

Hi all!!!

I have done the Topsy turvy thing on my own and I received one as a gift. I am not really impressed with either. My own are in plastic coffee buckets and the plants are flowering but very small. The actual turvy containers are only a couple weeks old but doing ok. The plants are already...

DigitS, that tunnel is way cool. We have many of those around where I live. On a larger scale of course. Many hill side nurseries. I think I need one. :D

GreenSage your garden looks great. I love the new bed, the soil looks great. I can't wait to see the pics. :)

So far from my garden I have picked, lettuce, raddish, zucchini, chives, carrots, herbs and beets. There have been a few snow peas but they never make it in. The kids eat them straight from the plant. My green and wax beans are on fire and should be ready in a week or so. Yum!!!

I have two worm farms. One like the one pictured earlier in the thread and another that's more like a rectangle tub. My fil says his dad always had five gallon buckets in the garage with worms. I think if you soaked some shredded newspaper and rung out excess water you would not need more...

Hey Beavis, thanks for posting the dimensions. I was trying to remember how big your cages were. I need to get some done. How's the almond tree??

Wow, you guys sure have been busy. It is great to see all of your gardens. I definitely have spring fever. I have been going full speed. I harvested my first zucchini's this week and we ate them for diner tonight. what a great thing. I also have lett, snow peas, carrots, wax and green...

Wow, things are looking great. I like the tomato cages. I think I will have to find some old fence and make some up. 50 plants wow!! I planted my new beds a couple weeks ago. Everything's coming up. My chickens raided my lettuce bed. Ate everything. Now I think I need to fence something...

hey beavis, we have had some great ether. So you have an up date pic on the raised beds? I direct seeded last week and I have little green sprouts everywhere. So exciting. :D

Gardens are looking great. Did you get any hale yesterday? or perhaps snow?? We got three rounds of little hail stones between 6 and 10pm last night. I checked my garden this am. Everything was a bit flat. I am sure it will recover though. Keep up the great gardens. :)

It says that his mother is the artist who does the covers and they sell cards with all her past artwork. I though about framing some for my house. I liked them too!!!!

My adventure for this year is Bakersville Heirloom Seeds. While doing an online search about Mansfield Mo. I found this pioneer village that specializes in rare seeds. I requested a catalogue and it just came the other day. It is amazing. I really can't decide on what to order I want to try...

I keep mine in the garage. If you live in the country perhaps a root cellar would work for some of your storage needs.

Wow, Beavis do you ever stop. I am impressed that you have another one going already. I planted some artichokes last year. They did ok. I was just trying to keep them alive with hopes that they would take off again in spring. Keep us updated.

The garden is so beautiful and green!!!! Beavis remember where you live and the heat? Didn't you say pea gravel would get to hot for you?

Beavis, those are the same we use for the voulenteer garden I worked at last summer. Very easy to use and do a great job.

Great advice Pat!!
