We gave up on a guarden this year , after haveing our side yard dug the FUCK up 3 times while the fools tryed to get the septic system correct . We have a few Mater plants in 5 gallon buckets |
We've got lettuce spinach n such in the ground...
|
Put Bonnie plants tomatoes and basil in today; last week carrots and brussels sprouts (new!) in as seed. Also an eggplant.
We did not remove the last bits of thyme and sage out there, and lo and behold, it came back this year with no prompting. |
garden spot is the name of an auto auction where they sell off the hoopdies. aka 'garbage spot'.
|
and the garden room was a biker bar with stumps for chairs when I was growing up ,
So whats your point ??? |
|
I need to get one of them plastic owls... the rabbits are eating my cauliflowers!!
|
My dad made a version of this out of wood. They look really nice. My brothers are using them; I don't have enough sunny spot and don't like tomatos, but it's a neat idea.

I have a plastic owl in my office. He used to be out in the atrium to keep the birds out. He didn't work. Now he has a college hat on and I named him Moltimer. |

How in the world does it work? You plant the plants in the 'base' (top thing) like a normal planter to get them started, then once they have flowers, flip the whole thing upside down and put into the base? How do you water the plants? I am totally confused.:yelsick: |
I think you put the small tomato plants through holes in the top base thingy. The tomatos will then vine down. You can plant other plants on the top part of the dirt so it looks pretty. Then you just water the dirt. I think. I know dad drilled holes in the top base thingy. :)
|
My Mother grows tomatos in hanging pots along the edge of the carport. They do great, except where the vines go over the edge of the pot, as the vines get heavier the point at the pot edge gets pretty strained.
Is it high enough so critters can't nibble the hanging fruit? |

Thxs Cloud. Lets see about 8 bucks for a 50lb sack of 8-8-8- fertilizer, almost 22 bucks for an eight oz. bottle of Post. + water bill and my labor. Hell I'm doing great. |

|

porch, sorry.
|
Mmmmm, Blueberries.
|
We are already harvesting tomatos, Jalepeno peppers, Cowhorn peppers, and Sweet yellow peppers. We have basil and cilantro as well but the cilantro has not done well. All grown in 5 gallon pots.

Do you ever eat them straight out of the freezer, buster? I am a frozen blueberry addict. I always have at least one package in there to snack on.
|
Naw. I just make pies or put in blender w/sugar and pour over ice cream. In a squirt bottle. Also I make a great lemon blueberrie pound cake or cook it in the small bunt? pans.
|
Blueberries are great for an overtaxed urinary system.
|
Todays eggplant and cukes.

My parents (with one afternoon of help from my brother and I, and a weekend of help from my sister) picked, pitted, and preserved well over 100 pounds of cherries over the past three weeks. Next week it's blackberries.
|
Guess the purple gene has taking over my peppers.

Great garden busterb

Beautiful gardens, Guys!
My wife has decided that for veggies, we'll just frequent the local farmer's market, and has spent her time and energy on all flowers in her garden for th last couple of years. If you don't count a few berry bushes in between. I'd love to show some of her pictures (her other hobby)if ya'll would like to see! |
Now that's a silly question... stand and deliver.
