Sjoerd, you really do trim off branches and leaves. It seems to work for you. The string that you use to tie the tomatoes, is it twine? Beautiful...
Our garlic waas so paltry, I hesitate to mention it.
Beeker, I would google the question regarding pulling or leaving Crab grass. Personally, I pull it and add grass clippings or straw as mulch....
I can't decide if I should be more envious of Donna or Sjoerd. Absolutely amazingly beautiful, both. Sjoerd, the Rose is awesome.
Tooty2shoes, I often think of allowing the soil a rest. Great idea.
KK, I don't ever buy Supermarket tomatoes. I would rather drain canned tomatoes and use them. Waretrop, could it be Black Krim? Brandywine? It...
Jewell, you said, "hopefully we have avoided the deadly split tomatoes." Is there some reason we shouldn't eat the split tomato? We just pour...
Netty, you got me beat hands down. I'm just happy to be getting tomatoes. I was ready to toss in the towel, but suddenly, they began to produce....
Hummerbum, I'm a wee bit jealous, but still hopeful that eventually I too shall taste a delicious Black Krim. Greenfingers, you're hoping to...
I cut a branch off our Black Krim tomato, stuck it in the ground, watered, fed. Lo and behold it has two tomatoes growing on it.
I'm not sure if I mentioned planting Cukamelons in a previous post? My first time with them and today I find three teensy cukamelons. They're...
Cabbage moths swarm around all our kale / broccoli/ brussel sprouts/ cauliflower. After smashing the first litter of their offspring, we made up a...
Potatoes are puzzling to me. Last year, we had such a great crop. This year, about as many as I planted. Even with frequent watering, the earth...
Hummerbum, thats sure a beauty. Did it taste as good as it looks? So far, our only ripe Black Krim was pecked by either a bird or sampled by a...
Hummerbum, since I posted, our Black Krim has put out a profusion of tomatoes. None ripe, but they look good. I broke off a branch and stuck it in...
Beeker, I suppose you have done the weeding by now. All I did today was walk about and whine. I'm concerned about pollination, among others...
mshelenlu, our zucchini looks quite a bit like your's. I sprayed the affected leaves with the baking soda / water mixture yesterday. I hope it...
Shawchert, I feel the same. The garlic is small, onions refusing to grow. Beets are a wait n see. Potatoes? I'm hopeful, but I see some unknown...
Mart, that's what my friend said. That most people would take veggies if she picked them, but to do the work ? NOT! I'm totally opposite in...
Oh Marlin, too bad your camera wasn't faster than your mouth. I'm so anxious, I posted a picture from 2013 in another forum. I was honest about...
