    I moved my tomatoes outside Sunday, then promptly drowned them last night. Oops. I hope they'll be okay.

    How warm for carrots to sprout?

    I'll be doing the seed tape next time for sure. All mine ended up clumped together and thinning was REALLY hard.

    red and golden raspberries together?

    Ahhh - that makes sense. I was thinking that cross-pollination was an issue, and couldn't figure out why the cultivated blackberries I have planted right next to the raspberries wouldn't be an issue.

    red and golden raspberries together?

    I have red and yellow planted together, but mine haven't borne any fruit yet. I don't think I read where it would be a problem, but I do seem to remember reading that they shouldn't be planted within so many feet of wild blackberries. *scratches head*

    Questions about when to plant and if I can start inside???

    I started okra inside this year, but they didn't handle transplanting well AT ALL. I'll be direct sowing them instead in another week or two.

    I got an Amaryllis bulb!....

    My mom has promised me some from her yard. Her bulbs belonged to my grandmother, which she dug up and took with her each time she moved somewhere new. So these same bulbs have been in our family for about 50 years - I think that's pretty cool. I can't wait to put some of them in my yard!

    Growing Tomatoes Vertically, need advice for pulling sucker leaves.

    I was somewhat confused on the pruning until I watched this YouTube video. My tomatoes won't be growing up a string, but I don't see why it wouldn't work for trellised tomatoes. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qJgA4n-sCE8

    new to gardening

    Welcome! I'm sure some of our northern folks can help you out with crop selections and planting time. My only advice is don't be afraid to fail as long as you learn something from it. My first attempt at gardening, I planted some raised beds, filled with native dirt, which is mostly sand...

    garden direction?

    My rows (short as they are) run north/south, even though I've read that you should run them east-west so that they don't shade each other. However, here in August, the temperatures border on Hellish so I think a bit of shade will do mine some good.
