Woah, Deer are TOUGH! You learn something new everyday :) and a bit of a scary thought though, but since most of the families around here have always managed to eat wild deer meat fine I'm thinking deer probably just have awesome digestive systems that are skilled at eliminating the toxins in...
Hello out there,
I am very very curious about composting. You see I really want to help my plants become the most they can be and I remember noticing as a kid how much bigger and better the black berries near horse pens were...for obvious reasons ;) Anyway, that is why I am here. I am a...
It probably still looks like poop :/ , I haven't been out to look at it but a few of my neighbors have horses and I know they wouldn't mind if I went out there and shoveled some. In one field any manure there would be a couple months old, the other field would have stuff that was still pretty...
Hello there!
I just managed to procure my own little berry garden type deal. I have a blackberry (thornless), a raspberry(very thorny :P ), A blue berry sprout, and a small fig...with figs already on it :ep I thought those guys didn't get their figs till they were older? Oh, and I also have a...
Haha, I actually did manage to work my way into the sunny part of the garden. I went plant shopping with her and convinced her with my awesome convincing skills that berries where just what we needed in the garden. She then granted me what ever space she isn't using to grow them. Full sun here I...
Actually most sites will have a certain limit of posts you have to make before posting pictures. It's a useful tool for blocking robots and trolls who want to post offensive matterial for kicks and giggles.
I'm fine with it, plus I'm just one more post closer to posting pics. :D
Those babies are absolutely beautiful :) I was this close to buying my own last week, plus my friend just gave me a whole cartoon of farm fresh eggs that seem like they were made for my incubator. Must...Resist... :P
I'm getting the most beautiful sun shiney spring weather, the perfect stuff with the blue skies and where everything is either buding or blooming. It is paradise, expecailly after that last month of what felt like constant rail fall :)
LoL That is so awesome, at least now you will have a beautiful flower and rabbit fodder to boot. :D Still, it would have been awesome if a squash had lasted through the winter :cool:
Or maybe it's a shrub, it was pretty small and skinny and growing next to an Elm. I HAVE NO CLUE what it is and I know my trees. Never seen it before and I'm kinda clueless. If you run out of tree/shrub ideas mention anything else you think it looks like, maybe I'm crazy and it was actually a...
Thank you for all the advice DigitS' .
We are very far from a "cool maritime" region. It gets pretty hot out here and the temp doesn't start getting lower until around October, sometimes even later so I may have a chance with gardening there after all :D
I know at the very least Basil does...
Thank you, Hmmmmm I have a few ideas of some things I can try. I've already marked down the one area that gets the most sun so I will try the tomatoes there. Maybe some spinach in the more shadier parts. I was wondering, do herbs do good in shade? I've always loved mint, basil, and rosemary...or...
Let me see, I haven't actually sat around and counted the hours of light but I'd say that the whole area only has direct light at about the middle of the day. 12 to 2, give or take. Before of after that the light is at an angle and only hitting one side or the other of the garden. Not sure if...
Hey guys!
I'm brand spanking new here, and to gardening, and would love some advice on what to grow in my new shade garden.
You see my mom has given me the side of the house as my own place to grow and garden in. Now the thing about that side of the house is that it is pretty shady. There are...
