I finally remembered to bring a big ziplock bag to the clinic where I volunteer. There are three big coffee urns. I took the grounds for my...
:eek:Im in awe. You are made of much more rugged stuff than I am!
@Melody Mc. how did the pyrethrin work out? Well, I hope?
@Dirtmechanic, I don't blame you a bit. I have seen articles where people grew pretty big crops of tomatoes in large containers, on their...
I stratify seeds by spreading them on a wet paper towel, fold it a couple times, and place it into a ziplock sandwich bag. That worked for me for...

That's the true gardener spirit! :setc_014: I also love sharing plants and produce.
@Sjoerd, it's a raised bed. I mixed the marigold choppings into the soil, along with some biochar and bone ashes. I agree with your garden club...

@Logan, you will have a lovely garden! @Melody Mc. I bet your strawberries will thank you for those leaves! I'd like to come up with a...
