Great harvest @Willowisp0801 ! Those raspberries look delicious!
I have two raised beds for tomatoes, each 4 x 8 feet. One gets sauce tomatoes, one gets dwarf slicing tomatoes. I think I planted 12 plants per...

"Oh no! I've got a sudden hankering for some bacon!"
I've grown them many times. I used them the same as pumpkins, although they have a milder flavor. I harvested when the shell was hard and the...
Wow, black potatoes!
That's a good question. I just keep going until the volume is down by half. Maybe 90 minute or two hours? Im not sure. Are you using sauce...

I potted up this dwarf Alstroemeria. It was surviving the dry fencerow, but I think it will thrive in the container garden. Those roots are like...
There are some encouraging signs, today. Oregano in bloom is always a big attraction for all sorts of bees and tiny wasps. [ATTACH] Echinacea is...
@mel, be careful! I can rest easier knowing that you have mandolin gloves. Whew! I'm very accident prone. Sometimes I discover injuries and...
