The thumbnails alone are gorgeous! I'm going to have fun this afternoon going through your album (my reward for mowing the orchard!). You have a...
So good to have you back! Your roses are beautiful, and don't worry about the weeds--we all have them and eventually we'll get around to pulling...
You can place the seeds on a damp paper towel and enclose them in a plastic bag. When the tiny roots start to show, you know you have viable...
Does anyone else plant orphans? I started Sungold cherry tomatoes from seed and ended up with about 18 plants. I managed to give 14 away, and...
Last Sunday at church the Prayer Concerns contained a heartfelt prayer for the wildfire areas in Texas, as well as those who suffered from the...
Your type of dandelions are much, much better than ours!
Welcome to the forum, and welcome back to gardening! Crop rotation in a vegetable garden isn't terribly important. It's nice to be able to rotate...

How long have they been in the garden? Broccoli sets a lot of leaves, then gets a tiny head in the center, which grows to an edible size. It takes...
Margie, the easiest raised bed we made was roughly kidney-shaped and with a trench about 4" wide and 6" deep around it as a weed/grass barrier....
Actually, I'd leave the top of stump #2 just as it is. The birds will appreciate a place to perch while they "peruse the menu" and a feeder up...
Mart, I can't swear to it, but I'd bet that the fields are sprayed. I have some squash in a six-pack that are extras, so I'll give them to him...
