Just lovely. Such vibrant colors! I can't wait till it warms up a little bit here...........

Per square foot.

Two years ago I planted some potatoes. Nothing, the grasshoppers ate them to the stalks. The following year they all popped up again, they were out all winter long in Zone 4 and came back up just fine. Your's might be a little too happy with the warmth of the house - you could perhaps try...

The "Square foot gardening" book says: Bush type you can plant 4 per square, and the vine type 1 per square.

OK good, the tree just has those fluffy like sprouts swelling on the branches, no actual leaves yet but they're coming I'm sure. We're going to go below freezing tonight and won't go over for a while, so that might stop it.

I'm not concerned with the cold, the warm weather is the problem, causing the tree to start sprouting leaves and such too early. This should only be happening in April!

Its way too early for the little shoots to be popping out on the apple tree. We've had some really odd weather, from -40 with windchills before christmas, and since then just like SPRING weather. Today was 61 degrees, yesterday was the same. We have some cold weather coming in again on...

Have FUN and be good! ;)

:lol: We also moved into my husbands late grandfathers house...... we have black walnut, plums and it seems APPLE tree's!

I would love to hear how you save/preserve or freeze your potato. I would like to have some ready to bake fries in the freezer - I normally just buy those. What about long term preserving? Canning? I don't have a pressure cooker, but do plan on getting one soon - I do have a dehydrator...

Cool - thanks!

I've got loads of that! :D I have some Jalapeno's to plant this year..... I miss my stuffed jalapeno poppers.... so I have to make my own!

Aggg I need it to warm up some..... I'm so over winter already! :coolsun

Gosh I will have to do that - not that I NEED trees - we have hundreds already...... but I do love tree's! Thanks Angie

We have a HUGE ant nest next to our house its really big (2-3 feet wide, 1-2 feet tall), I think they're field ants. When we had some serious snow here a few weeks ago my hubby made a big hole in the top of the nest - not sure if we killed any - or just set them planning their revenge for...

Wow - they're PERFECT!!!

Yeah my eyes glazed over - :lol: Interesting reading all the posts.... I think I'm going to find a little corner or spot on the property somewhere to dump all my shavings and chicken poop and leave it till 2009 :o (much easier than trying to figure it all out!) and gosh if we get worms -...

Just wanted to start a thread for anyone in Nebraska or Zone 4 - would be nice to compare notes. :coolsun

:( I don't think I have a big fork - there is still one shed I've not looked in :D I do have some rakes, one is really "flimsy" thin metal that kinda bounces... the one I like is the real FIRM one, I actually have used it to help pull up ice off the ground... :lol: I think I have most of the...
