Also from backyard herds? Thought I recognized the name. Welcome to The Easy Garden from South Carolina. And don't believe the name. I'm brand new to gardening also, and I haven't seen anything EASY about it yet. What kind of gardening are you going to start with? Container, raised bed...

Oh, my bad. I know you guys like pictures. OVERVIEW THE "BUGINATORS" SUGAR SNAPS..may have waited too late on them BLUEBERRY greened up again nicely BLACKBERRY With blooms!

SPRING FINALLY DECIDED TO SHOW UP! It Went straight from "too cold to be out here" to "Gosh, am I gonna have a heat stroke" upper 80s, low 90s. But TODAY! Lower 60s, and next 10 days-upper 60s, low 70s. THANK YOU GOD! The garden infrastructure is finally complete. Practically. Still need to put...

And now you see why so many people in nursing homes get this infection. It's not possible to maintain a sterile or semi sterile environment when you're rushed. Sadly, it's not about the people, as it should be. It's about $. I'll do mine at home thank you. A couple more months, or even a couple...

In one of my threads on byh, somebody posted a picture of a Snakehead Lily. I never saw one before but I like it. I did a search here and came up with nothing. I Googled, and found limited information. Is a European Import and likes Light sun to shade. Could find no reviews of anyone whoever...

The 12 inches of hay is working GREAT. Not a single weed so far, yet the border areas are already looking like a mini jungle. My lettuce, directly planted early last week, is strongly up, but no true leaves yet. And I did a TERRIBLE job of sowing. Thick here, scant there. Sugar Snaps are about...

Yeah, and Indiana Jones is SO much cooler than Illinois Smith! :lol:

Yeah. That would be tough. Although it's already been done. But they refused to release it due to liability issues. What I can't figure is how they dumbed a computer down enough. Most of the stuff on social media anymore!

Middle of April? That's a quarter into the growing season for us. :lol:

I paid $1.43, reg.(87) unleaded today. S.C. piedmont.

Do you mean like gas dropping to less than a dollar fifty cents per gallon, so we can afford to travel. But the government imposing restrictions, say we have to stay home? Discombobulating.

I just did a search on here and came up empty. Anybody know much about Dwarf magnolias? I have one, planted by my Dad for my Mom 50/60 years ago. She LOVED that bush! I have researched enough to learn to prune back after it stops blooming, as next years blooms come from this years growth. But...

As a kid, no board games, but cards- set-back mostly, and some rummy. Today, favorites are scrabble or risk...but nearly impossible to find players, so I settle for Cranium.

Kinda like the free food samples at Sams Club (when they could still do that). You can get a lotta plugs out of one melon.

And for me, who doesn't have the experience of growing my own yet, I find the method of "Would you cut a plug out of one of those so I can taste it?" to be a certain winner.

Ya know, I feel kinda sorry for you folks who have been doing this gardening thing for years. I'm sure you get a warm happy feeling when your seeds sprout. BUT. The total, unbridled JOY I get when I see the changes happening to my seeds/seedlings! I'm sure down the road I'll be thinking "that's...

Yep...that bad. Funny story. Three years ago, when I lived in the city, there was a pond about half a mile from us if you walked a straight line-which you couldn't because it was an old, well established neighborhood. Some geese lived there year round, with many more visiting for spring/summer...

@thistlebloom I took your advice. Spooned the largest out. The "roots" were still only one root. So the putting soil naturally crumbled away, leaving me with a pitiful single rooted stem with only a pair of cotyledons. But I carefully and gently repotted. Next day, they were really pitiful...

My Dad was petty old school, modern for his time when it came to things like this. Heirloom apples? Making cider? I seriously doubt it. He probably went to the feed/hardware store and got what sounded yummy. He did make a little scuppernog wine occasionally, when he thought my Mom had cooled...

P.S. if it will help, I would be happy to post pics. Did not simply because they just look like old mostly dead trees.
