Steve, it is beautiful here, especially now with the fall colors blazing. :)

Yup, we all have those days. The secret is to deal with them in the proper spirit. For instance, if something say, on a message board is causing those feelings, best thing is to discuss via Private Message, with a Staff member. If it is at work, then a chat with your supervisor might be in...

I think we are done here. Remember that the report button is your friend. Those who didn't use it and should have should remember that.

Well, I have my peas out. I planted about 100 of my 200+ starts, then I got busy getting my Garden Shop ready to open for the season and forgot to water the ones still int he house and they died. Still, 100 plants should geive me plenty. I planted 12 brussels sprouts plants today as well. I...

We put our ducks to to work to take care of the slugs when we lived in Oregon, Land of the Monster Banana Slug. Of course then we had to fence the garden off from the ducks. :rolleyes:

I told my husband I was just going to string fishing line to the tops of the windows and grow them in the house. He gave me a dirty look. :lau I love peas, too! I want to dry some and can or freeze some, so they won't go to waste at all.

Our rental house in Oregon has a sand filter system. When we lived there, we used to scatter several packets of assorted wildflower seeds on top. The flowers that thrived best there in the warmth generated from the sand filter were the California poppies. They never froze and bloomed almost all...

A day late, but I put my peas in the starter plugs. Most sprouted in 3 days so I am not wasting space with dead-o seeds. Now if it would stay above freezing at night.....

It is still cold here, but I am thinking I might be able to get cool weather stuff in by the first or mid April if I get them started in the house. I have been turning the garden soil with a pitchfork and it is getting nice and deeply soft and crumbly. I love Oregon grape! When we used to go...

I just put my peas to soak and will plant them in plugs tomorrow to sprout. I can't wait for peas. Mmmm.

:thumbsup

You got yourself a gold mine!

Recently a friend gave me an oak leaf hydrangea as a gift. It needs to be planted, but now that it is in the freezing temps, should I move it into the garage for the winter? Or go ahead an plant it now?

I like it , I like it.
