I'm just bumping this up since it seems to have stalled. Maybe everyone is like me and just OVERWHELED with seeds already. lol

I just love that the garden is getting so much attention. It has to be a good thing to inform people about growing there own food and knowing where it comes from! I am an Obama supporter but I'd love this idea no matter who was in the white house. It doesn't matter who does the gardening it's...

I ordered from them and so far have received 2 shipments when they said they would arrive. I still have 2 more shipments to come but I can look at the website and see when they are scheduled to be shipped according to when they need planted in my zone...we'll see if they arrive as promised. lol...

Are you starting seeds or buying plants? What zone are you in? Think positive thoughts....they can feel those negative vibes! :gig

I usually just carefully pinch the seed hull off the leaves and they do fine.

I think my problem started out that way....it dried out too quickly so I over compensated and then the water ran out the bottom onto the puny little tomato and rotted it! lol Good thing the 20 other upright tomato plants in the garden did better. My Dad bought me the topsy turvey thingy last...

My Russian Fingerlings arrived today! :weee I think it's still a bit early here so I'll wait a week or 2 yet I guess. Anyone have potatoes planted already in zone 5?

:welcome There is a whole thread on Topsy Turvey tomatoes. Mixed reviews. Mine rotted. lol

We are over 4" behind on rainfall already this year so I won't complain if we get a little here.

Sounds great instead of over tilling the soil...

I never started borccoli from seed before, always bought plants. These sprouts are the most spindly things I've ever seen. Is that normal for broccoli?

I have a Presto that's as old as the hills. I replaced the gasket 2 years ago and now I can't get the darn lid to latch! Arrgghh!

Around the 2nd week of April I think. That's when Henry Fields has mine scheduled for delivry and they usually scheduele stuff so it arrives near planting time.

If you are past your frost date I would direct seed some too.

Today I planted peas, lettuce and spinach seeds out in the garden. I found volunteer onions, a potato sprout and garlic! I just love seeing anything green this time of year. lol I also planted some iris tubers that I dug out last fall and were sprouting in the garage. :thumbsup

Holy Moly...this year will be the first time I've tried spag. squash. If I get this many I'll be setting up a roadside stand! lol Oregonchick: I am once again preaching the gospel of the soil test! lol The only way to know for sure if it's a Ph/soil issue is to get a good soil test. Call the...

To cute! :happy_flower

Idiots ( that would be ME) are outside planting peas, lettuce and spinach in there garden while there husbands tell them they are crazy! lol Bluebirds are everywhere EXCEPT in the 12 new boxes I put up. Go figure! :hu

I totally missed the shade part. You are correct that all the above mentioned berries are going to want a good bit of sun if not full sun. Let us know when your cherry gets fruit Kellygirl. I'd really be interested.

I thought I'd be smart and go to the "Pro". My step son has a masters degree in landscape architecture and has always loved ponds so I sent him the pics. His reply was. "Too hard to tell with plants that small." lol
