They were just watered before picture. Raised beds with good soil.

We planted 6 Blue Lake Pole bean plants about 3 weeks ago. They were nice plants when we got them (Bonnie Plants) but since then, they are not looking good (pictures attached) They are turning brown around the edges and not really growing well. They are planted in an area that gets about half a...

Ok, those are encouraging words. I am probably to attentive to the worms. I check on the daily. I have been trying to gauge how much food they consume. I get 5 to 10 lb bags of used coffee grounds from my local shop. I add them a little at a time. I just pureed about a quart of veg bits and...

We planted 8 Asparagus Crowns 3 years ago in an area I thought would be perfect for them. Now, after re-configuring our yard, I have changed my mind. I need to move them if possible. It is springs and has been very warm here in Colorado, but we haven't seen anything coming up yet. So...

Hey All, We started our Worm Composting Project over a month ago and I wanted to share and update how the project is going... and what I am learning as I go. Here is a short video of one of our basic bins: How I built it: We used 18 gallon tubs. Drilled 1/4 holes every 2 inches over the...

Base is staked down and greenhouse is screwed to base. As you can see, it is pretty protected, so it should be ok. High winds today (on day after building it) have not really even shaken it. If I see ANY movement, I am going to buy some of those corkscrew anchors! Thanks! It's for my wife and...

Well, after asking many of your thoughts about small greenhouses and after researching till my head hurt, I bought a Ploy-TeX NAtural '6 x '8 Greenhouse. Got a great price and I feel like it is much better built than the Harbor Freight model. With the wind we get, I think I would be chasing...

Yes true...but I have heard bad things about the durability of the Harbor Freight unit. That it does not hold up in wind. We can get gusts up to 70 mph around here and I cant have the GH flyin away in the wind! Thanks for your pic though. Can I ask, how well do the panels fit and are the panels...

YEah, I have a ton of idea's from Pinterest. But in this application, I am more apt to use a commercially available model. And Kevin, thanks for the input but that was not my question. :)

Looking at putting in a small greenhouse. Been doing much reading and comparing. Came across the Juliana Basic 600 Greenhouse (6 x 10) and was wondering if anyone out there had any experience with these units (brand, model). There is not a lot of reviews but what I read says they are sturdy...
