Odif, I appreciate that information. I was concerned about digging them too soon.
Marlingardner, great harvest of reds. I took enough out yesterday to make a large bowl of potato salad. The plants are beginning to yellow and...
I only grow red tomatoes, so green would be for fried green tomatoes or pickled tomatoes. Hornworms are on my kill list, if I see tiny black poop...
I had no idea there were gender plants in the asparagus family. Most of our plants have seed heads, so that may be why our supply is sparse.
We have two Lemon grasses in pots which supposedly deter mosquitoes.
Hummerbum, I feel the same, so blessed and sad for others.Especially Marlingardens.
I'm thankful for the veggies. The beans have blossoms. Everything seems as good as possible.
Jimminy Crickets you all, I hate to admit that aside from hard work pulling weeds, our gardens are coming along well. Sjoerd, I did appreciate...

When I went out this morning to pull weeds, a gentle rain was falling. It didn't bother me, until my shirt became wet and soon I was cold. Still,...
Sjoerd, I believe that, like myself, you really enjoy the work involved in raising your own food.
I would like to see your lottie and accept advice on how to do things as you and your bride. Alas, I probably won't make it that far. Your idea...
Sjoerd, it seems farmers/gardeners everywhere are having setbacks. Either too much rain or too little. In Michigan, we seem to have plenty of rain...
Sjoerd, I love your "Little resting place" I envision you and your bride sitting there, sipping your drink which you took along. Your garden is...
You're just the host with the most!
Maybe that's why planting Marigolds by tomatoes is supposed to deter the Horn worm. I watch for any black droppings and begin the search for the...
Carolyn, I fully understand the squash dilemma. I wouldn't be able to handle so many. About the tomatoes, I wonder if the weather has an effect....
Carolyn, 50 Squash plants? I would beg for help as that's a lot of stems to wrap. Hummerbum, maybe you can still wrap the vjne/stem, just where it...
Careful Hummerbum, Sjoerd may put you to work on his lottie!
What I like is Angel Food cake in a large bowl soaked in either Strawberry or Raspberry jello and the berries in the hole in the cake. Refrigerate...
