    Tomato Sprouts Inside the Tomato

    I cut open a tomato the other day and the seeds had started sprouting inside the tomato. It was a little strange and I was just wondering if anyone has ever had this happen before or if anyone knows what caused it. Sorry, forgot to put the picture.

    Okra is desimated

    My rabbit stripped my okra plants to nothing but the center stem.After about 6 weeks they recovered and sprouted new leaves, but only at the top so we only got one or two pods at a time from each plant.

    So, what likes my jalapeno pepper plant so much?

    Our rabbit did the same thing to our hot peppers. Everyone at the feed store and the pet store kept saying that animals won't eat the hot pepper plants but every time we let him out of the cage he would go straigt for the peppers.

    Potatoes in sand

    When I say sand I don't meen sandy soil, I mean actual sand. It's like a beach in my yard. I have been watching them build other houses in the neighborhood and I think what they do is dig up the whole property and use the dirt and clay to bake a raised base for the foundation and then fill the...

    Potatoes in sand

    Can I prow potatoes in sand? We just moved into a new house and our backyard is nothing but sand. Will potatoes grow in this? Do I need to fertilize them more? Do I need to add anything to it?

    Chicken poo fertilizer?

    We use hay in the barn. Every two or three weeks we clean out the barn and use the hay for mulch in the garden. We don't compost or anything, just keep piling it on. When you water your plants the poo will slowly leach into the soil. It seems to work fine for us.

The tags don't tell much more than how...

    Grapevines

    If I plant grapevines now how long will it be before I get fruit? I just picked some up the other day at Home Depot and they said I can plant then now, but knew nothing else.

    How many pear trees do I need?

    Can I plant just one, or do I need two? Do I need different variaties? How much space do they need? I have never had a pear tree before, only apples, peaches, and plums. I think I only have room for one tree if it's a big one.

    Fruit catalogues--I'm a total sucker!

    I know what you meen. I love those beautiful pictures and all the fruits and veggies growing on their plants, but I haven't ben that successful either. My tomatoe trees only got about 2.5 feet, not the 7-8 that they prommissed, and we only got a few small tomatoe in November, but the never got...
