Oh Carolyn, I realize how east my little "Play" garden is compared to all you do. I wish for good things to come your way and soon. Sjoerd, put...
Imagine your asking that question, Sjoerd. I was between 2 and 3 years old. Daddy put me on his shoulder and climbed up into the tower. I remember...
Yes Sjoerd, South Carolina does have some swampy areas, but the north west corner, where I grew up, has mountains and lovely hills. In fact, the...
I understand that.
Mart, I hope you decide on a place to plant the Acorns. Oak trees are so lovely when full grown and the acorns are food for wild life.
Sjoerd, I was born in the mountainous region of North Carolina, grew up in the hills of South Carolina, moved to Michigan in 1955 and I think all...
Great photos, Hummerbum. Your plants look great. EJ, it sounds like you had a busy day and accomplished a lot. YAY I sunk two 18 gallon...

hummerbum, I'm not getting your photos. Sjoerd, you certainly grow a variety of food. You and Bride have my deepest admiration.
As I washed carrots for Tabouleh, I noticed two with tiny green sticking out of the top. I cut the tops off at about half an inch and stuck them...
Keeping an agreement makes a content marriage, Sjoerd, as you have discovered.
Mart, thanks for setting the Oak leaf issue straight. It seems I read somewhere that they shouldn't be used, but I wasn't certain.
I wonder if your County offers the soil test kits? In Michigan, Wayne County used to offer the kit for testing our soil. The sample was then sent...
Sjoerd, as usual, your methods for farming intrigue me. I intend to try the Min-till idea for some areas now that I've seen you do it. Our...
Very interesting reading about the life and lodgings of fellow gardeners. :D
Nicole, I'm glad you found the solution. It's heartbreaking when our efforts fail. I'm hoping it's all uphill now.:fingerscrossed:
Sjoerd, I really enjoy your gardening technique. I have only planted potatoes and a few onion tops thus far. I read that when we cut the top from...
Sjoerd, that explains it clearly. I now have one question. How deep do you remove greenhouse soil?
Hmmmm? Toni, a possibility.
