I am in the planning stages of building one (actually I have completed the base) from a design based on some videos I have seen on you tube. I'm hoping there might be someone here that could give me a heads up from the "what not to do" side. (smiles?) There are a few posts on this subject on the...

My niece has bad knees so I built this for her Xmas present. Two layers of 1 inch thick closed cell foam vinyl covered. Should keep her up off the cold wet ground and it is weather proof so she can just leave it out there year 'round. It can also be turned over and used as a stool.

Seems the weather this spring (a cold snap amid high temps) shut down all my bell pepper plants. I never saw a single blossom. Talking to the owner of a local farm stand and a couple of the neighbors we were all affected. Go down the road ten miles and they had no problem. Wierdest thing is the...

Can anyone tell me what the difference is? I saw asparagus roots for sale at TSC. I see crowns for sale in many catalogs. There is an obvious difference in price. Do roots take longer to mature? TIA. :idunno

I have two grapevines on my property and I could only eat so many grapes and I got tired of feeding the birds so I started about 4 years ago with a simple wine making kit. Cost me about 70 bucks then. Now they are up over $110. Imagine that. Bought a couple of instructional books from simple to...

Hi all as you can see I finally took the plunge and registered here instead of just lurking. I am considering putting in two dwarf cherry trees this spring. Specifically using the Gisela 5 rootstock from raintree nursery. I am curious if anyone here has had any experience with this variety of...
