Would you be able to plant things to put in your soap? I don't know what, but it was an idea that just popped in my head.

It looks great! You have the perfect backyard for a big ol' horse arena... :cool:

I found my tomatoes!!!! :weee So I'm doing those, some foxglove, daisies... I forget what else. I also found a boot shaped container at Lowes. It was only $30 and it's HEAVY and BIG. :D

I just spent a good three, three and a half hours examining my Sunset Western Garden book, cutting pictures out of magazines and taping them inside a garden journal. And of course, I wrote notes next to each picture (what variety it is, where I should plant it, etc). I see all these great ideas...

You're probably right, Steve. BB and I have exceptional weather so we're lucky. Hey Shelly, what are you planting today? :lol: :cool: But no kidding... Come on, folks! At least say hi! We aren't scary... :gig

:weee YAY!!

Hi Janet- Get those girls out there for some bug clean up! But keep them out after you plant... I learned the hard way. :barnie

LOL Well it looks like we WILL meet over horse manure! :gig I'll start collecting now... Lord knows they never stop producing!

Did you get the seeds? Did ya did ya did ya? :lol: Great piece of property you guys have there... and you should have heard me trying to explain to my grandma how I met you and how we're all connected. :barnie "I know her from a forum" just doesn't make sense to her....

Cool! No, actually you don't. Not for a little tractor like ours, anyway. I'd imagine if it were oversized, you would need a Class A, but this will fit on just a regular car trailer. It has to be a beefy car trailer, but nothing too long or wide. I think we spent $40 on a trailer when we had to...

There are different types of gannons, but we have one sort of like this. It breaks up that hard dirt really well... makes it a lot easier to till!!

They had the orchids in full sun? Good grief. :/ And I like maroon, thankyouverymuch! :lol: ;)

Great find! Were they on the "half dead" rack?

Rocks, maybe, but I don't think gravel.

I have horses and I will always push horse manure on people! :cool: It's always worked great for my mom (who has a greener thumb than anyone I know) and I. It really depends on what the horses are fed, though. Some people feed supplemental feeds, like grains or grasses, that will pass through...

Wow! You guys got a lot done!! Still a lot of work to do, though. When we had 2k sq ft of sod put in our front yard, we had a local nursery deliver 5 yards of amendment. They aren't around anymore, but there has to be one out there that can get some out to you. You may even be able to contact...

Me too! I can't wait to have fresh salsa!!! I bought some from Costco and it's just not the same. :mad:

I'm doing tomatillos (not a tomato, I know, but flavorful nonetheless) and Heatwave tomatoes, which is a hybrid that does great out here. If you can get your hands on them, I would try Sun Gold, which is just like a cherry tomato but golden in color. They are delicious... very flavorful and very...

I know I've never heard of a machine, unless he's talking about one of those barrels that you manually turn...

Pat's right... I've found that my best information comes from many different places: books, other people, online. Do what you think is best and if it doesn't work out, better luck next year!
