I would check my county extension and see the recommended variety to plant, do my homework on the types description and then buy a tree from local store . I have a Lemon and Kumquat tree growing in large pot's but in California it should grow outside.
Buy a small tree as you will be eating...
Beavis,
I am thinking maby 3-4 feet apart here as we have humid weather and they need air circulation and also things really grow big here as we have a long growing season.
Beekissed , I also hope to grow Pumpkins and Winter Squash ! ;)
I would not take a chance as that's wasted food and a lot of wasted work & time from you IF the process fails :/
Get a Mirror Pressure Canner, I bought a 8QT. from garage sale for $10.00 .
I LOVE Cattle panels as they are movable and just work great in a front yard garden as they make a lovely fence , I raise them off the soil about 4 inches so I can just weed eat everything at the dirt when the season is over and then I clean the fence wire, it also makes tilling easier as you...
Oh my , do I love my goats and the milk and cheese are wonderful , I also have lots of poop!
I heard that rabbit poop is like goat poop as that it does not burn the plants like chicken poop , however we do have to worm our goats here in the south so I dont plant plants that are underground or...
Those are the one's I had at the Gulf !! While at the local post office a piece of that plant fell off and landed in my car ,when I got home I planted it and it grew and grew :D , It grew up into the electric lines and electric company cut it out , they were perennial,they stayed open all day in...
I am from the south and I use Poolville or Park's seed, as these seeds grow better for my hot summers.
With starting my own seeds,I can grow a larger variety of vegetables that cant be found in the local store's that sell Bonnie plant's.
In the Fall if I am not growing a fall garden , I till the soil and then plant a cover crop of annual Rye,Oats,Clover or other green and then let the soil rest till Spring , then in early spring till and wait a couple of weeks and plant my usual veggies. I do keep a sheet on where stuff was...
I am not new to gardening but I dont know a thing about greenhouses and I have one. I have a unheated greenhouse ,that I winter outside flowers like geraniums and also year long grow a lemon and sm. orange tree in as they are just too large to be moving around , these have survived without heat...
I use Round up or my goats ! :) ,
my goats just love poison ivy and blackberry vines but not nettle and buttercups as I use the Round Up on them while the plants are small . That's how I got started with goats due to all the brush we have .
Whew, That's a big question for me :/ , For spring, I hope to have my plant starts growing in lil pot's under light about 6weeks before I want to set them out in the garden . I check my county extension office for my state and zone or the Farmers almanac to see what time my plants need to be...
When you buy plants, look at the name of them, as I try to buy " Big Bertha " bell peppers ,as the name will tell you how big they will get, once I bought " Jingle Bell " peppers and they were tiny and also last year just peppers labeled "Bell Pepper " and they were small also .:rolleyes...
I wouldnt make my beds so wide as it's hard to reach the middle to pick veggies ,maby cut the boards and make 3' wide instead .
and you can add a little fertilizer to heat the stuff you will be composting to get it decaying faster ,you can top the top off with bag's of top soil or bag's of...
