I planted thornless black berries last year. They had a few berries then. I do not prune mine at all now since they are young. Maybe when they get...
Believe me I would love to but no one around me has a computer. I am in the boonies out here. Sorry. I have been looking for another computer...
Good luck with the tomatoes. If you want additional plants you can pinch off suckers from the one remaining plant and root them in a bit of dirt...
Not that one either. The swallow has a very deep V in the tail and this bird has a small one. Looking again this morning I believe there are two...
No, Not that one either. Wish I could take a pic but my camera doesn`t work with this old computer.
No , none of those. We have blue and painted buntings and I know them well. Not purple martins either. I am well familiar with the birds we have...
I have a bluebird house in my back yard a few feet from the garden fence. Every year we have had bluebirds nest in it and raise young. This year...
The snakes around here and I have a deal,,they leave me alone and I will leave them alone. I would rather deal with an occassional snake than have...
If its at ground level, the problem might be a cutworm. You can wrap tin foil around the main stem from the ground to about three inches up for...
I have had fire ants in my garden on occassion but they really didn`t seem to hurt anything other than me. I would just sprinkle Sevin dust on the...
Do you know what kind of ant it is ? I have not heard of it before but that doesn`t mean that they won`t eat the roots. I guess some types of...
Well, it isn`t all sugar and spice here in the Lone Star State. Even though our winter temps are fairly mild at about 40 degrees average. We have...
Your radishes look good. So far I have had strawberries, new potatoes, greens, squash, and picked 4 jalapenos. Everything else is still growing.
To bury them deep just dig a hole about twice the depth of the tomato stem or a bit deeper. Then plant them in the bottom. As they grow fill in...
If it were me I would purchase the plants instead of starting them yourself. Most garden centers carry plants that are for your zone. If 40 is the...
I know what you mean. It is 92 F. here in Texas today and summer hasn`t even started yet.
Perhaps you could try some of the heat tolerant varieties. There are several on the market. Many seed companies have them and they also can be...
Yes it is a lot but I can them for winter use and hubby can eat them straight from the jar. He prefers the ones I can rather than store bought....
No, you are correct. I tried romaine and its ok early in the year while still cool but does get bitter as the heat index goes up. I have had...
Another good variety that I believe is self pollinating is the Long Green Slicing. Its a pity that seed companies fail to put SP or OP on their...
