I am a northern gardener with an unpredictable climate. I grow flowers, vegetables and fruits. But I'm always learning new things, so I'm here. I really appreciate the experience of other gardeners and positive communication.
Hi Laly, welcome to Gardenstew from Chelmsford, MA, USA. It's always fun to learn new things and meet new people. Jerry
@Laly welcome to GS and nice to have you with us and look forward to seeing you on discussions and what you've learnt also along the way on to discussions on the forum and added pic's are always a nice addition.
WELCOME Laly!! I'm from Scotland where the weather is never the same two days running. I hope you grow to love our forums as much as we all do.
Hi Laly and a hearty welcome to GardenStew Love to hear about gardening from different locations around the globe.
Hi Laly, welcome to GardenStew from north central Texas. I hope to learn more about your part of the world and watch your garden grow.
Thank you all for the kind welcome! Of course, the garden season is already ending here. But the summer was good. I have reaped a good harvest and am already finishing canning. I cleaned the greenhouses and sowed mustard ( Sinapis) for green fertilizer the following year. In fact, I work a lot, so I am a “weekend gardener”. I live in the city and come to my country house, like many people here. And I do not have time to do a lot. The grass grows faster than I can cut it. Therefore, I am looking for any ideas to make it simple. For example, I plant potatoes in hay. I try to plant more annual flowers with the inscription on the packaging "growing independently." But I love my garden, This is my relax. In addition, I have a lot of home flowering plants. I have already planted bulbs of hyacinths, tulips and crocuses for winter flowering. Well, I'm a fan of plants. Some photos of this summer. Herbs for winter tea. Now in the kitchen.
I'm impressed Laly!! You seem to have everything under control even with the time restrictions. I hope your grass is like ours and won't need to be cut until March which should give you more time to 'play' in your garden.
Yes, I will use a lawnmower in May in my climate. But in May, birds make nests in currant bushes. Therefore, I am waiting. They must raise nestlings and leave the nest.
@Laly what a fantastic selection you have and it's nice to see the out come after grafting hard and enjoying it at the same time...I don't grow things but it's always nice to see the produce of other members. I don't know if this link will be of any use to you regarding trying other methods of growing potatoes. https://www.easydigging.com/blog/potatoes-planting-harvesting.html
Thank, @Gail-Steman ! Of course, I have a more modest garden and I think about planting potatoes in bag too, but I have a few garden tools from our gardeners who really make gardening easier.
