Hello from Twentynine Palms, CA!

[bzbrown]

Just discovered this site after doing some research over at backyardchickens.com

We're new to gardening and are learning a lot along the way. Most recently I learned exactly what frost can do to a garden lol!

Looking forward to meeting more high desert gardeners!

With the title of your post, I don't think you will have to wait long to meet "CheerioLounge" there in your hometown.

There are some others from . . . maybe, a little higher in California. All should be around before too long. You should just find reason to bump this up to the top over the next few - busy - days as these folks have a moment to sit down and think about gardening.

Welcome to TEG, Bzbrown !

Welcome to this site, Bzbrown. I've heard of your town but can't quite place it. Are you near Hesparia? I have an aunt that lives there. She has a hard time gardening in that climate.

You will find lots of nice people here!

Winter is one of the best times to grow things in the desert.

And, I have the water bills to prove it

Hi rebbetzin! That is my biggest issue with trying to grow anything here!! I need to find veggies that grow well with minimal water. Any suggestions?

Doesn't that Rebbetzin have the cutest smilies ?!!

I don't know where she got that one (or, where she's hiding it ) but if you want to -- you can click my 2 and it will take you to a Texas A&M webpage. Then, scroll down to Table IV-1. Relative Vegetable Water Needs:



Not only did I hi-jack the question but, those 2 . . . I stole 'em from Rebbetzin!!
