Sound like a good plan @Melody Mc. I've grown them from bulbils. In my climate, I can just plant them about a half inch deep in rows, and let...
@Melody Mc. I agree with you, this experiment probably isn't suitable for your priorities. I hope to continue posting how it goes. Nice plant...
It seems early, but with saving seeds I already did part of my garden planning for 2023. Plus I already planted the garlic tor next year. Here...
Here is the cover for the miniature peach trees. They yielded very well this year. I hope I got the covers in place on time. [IMG] It's not...
For the miniature apple orchard, I'm aiming for something similar to this, but much fewer trees. [ATTACH] That was Gene Yale near Chicago, in...
Thanks Pacnorwest. Here is the rest of the Mutsu. The top growth was pretty rewarding. [IMG] This winter, I want to plant this tree in a...
Mel, that's the idea, anyway. Last year, they did get some fungus gnats and whitefly. I treated with soap spray and neem, which cured them. I...
I inspected some of the apple grafts I did last Spring. I'm making espaliers with the top two tiers, different varieties from the lower two...
Today I spread dried, crushed eggshells and used coffee grounds over where I planted garlic last week, and worked them in shallowly. Then I did...
@Shoerd, those are some nice looking garden beds! Very nice indeed. Our garden gets the doggie hair. It's full of nutrients for the plants....
The air is starting to clear, so I got back to work and planted garlic. This raised bed had sauce tomatoes until two or three days ago. This...
What an adventure, Sjoerd, for you and for you bride! I loved reading your story! I have a younger version of Moonlight apple too, in my fenced...
Thanks for the well wishes everyone! Today I spent a few hours on the homestead, then left for town again. I harvested the last of the sauce...
All done! [ATTACH] From a distance, the subtle fabric patterns dont show well. Up close, they are more visible. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]...
Not in the garden today, air is too smoky. We got evacuation alerts yesterday afternoon. I'm a few miles from the evacuation green zone on the...
Thank you @Clay_22. This year I grew Tabasco peppers too, but the plant was small and they are not ripe yet. The goal was to make a vinegar...
No, but I wash my hands thoroughly afterwards. Otherwise it can make life a little too interesting :chuckle:.
Here is the result of the pepper fermentation this year. I pureed them in the food processor, after decanting most of the brine. It's basically...
Yes, for all of the heirloom and open pollinated tomatoes, squashes, pumpkins, and a lot of the flowers. I think they germinate better and have...
Please? Pretty please? LOL. My face looks bad enough without yellow jacket stings. Back to normal now. I have not been back to that particular...
