Hey there George from California... Welcome from Maryland. Congrats on your new house and garden.
Back to the grind today (work). Yesterday I used my new ratchet lopper to trim part of a fig and it worked beautifully! Faster, easier and I...
Hey Bunkie! I just took time to check out the link to DiMeo Farms and I see they are in the southern part of New Jersey, where blueberries grow...
See, I'm learning!
That's a good point about the container, Sjoerd. Like I said, this reaction is a puzzlement to me. Maybe I just haven't met the right person...
So I went down to the garden center to pick up the azalea soil mix, having called this a.m. to make sure they had it in stock. Guess what? When...
Hi Agnes -- how are you doing? This trellis is great. Functional and nice looking too. I like the idea of the netting made by the twine because...
Thanks Sjoerd! Aren't you a great friend? Now, how were you able to find this in my area all the way from the Netherlands and I could not...?...
Just waiting for the temp to creep up a little bit higher this a.m. and then I'm heading outside for a few hours before I meet up with a friend in...
Oh happy days! Dooley, I just checked the 10 day forecast for my zip code and our temps are supposed to be in the mid-50s F (10 C) during the day...
Good morning all. I am going to a garden show today so I'm thinking it's going to be a fun day! Wish you could all come along.
Sjoerd, I have not been able to find any azalea/camelia/acid loving plant soil at big retailers like Home Depot or Lowes by searching online....
I'll do my best Sjoerd, and see what I can find. This is an interesting topic to look into.
Super duper guys, thanks. I learned today too that I can buy a soil testing tool that is some sort of probe that you would stick into the soil....
KK, yes, clever to put the ice cubes in. I thought it clever of you to have lettuce for lunch so you could try your experiment too. OK now...
I had a nice chat on the phone with Nancy from LeafGro this a.m. too. She's very nice and it was a treat to talk to a garden-y type person. She...
Haha, Droopy! I must be part Norwegian too then! I re-use everything I can.
Thank you Toni! You're a wealth of info. That's what I thought. No way to test it myself then? Have to send it off? I'm not so good on...
Thanks for showing your blueberries, Muddy. I will be planting beneath and near a big pine tree. I think the blueberries will like it there....
This may be a dumb question.... How do you test the ph of soil?
