Oh that's epic! I used to watch it with my father, now my daughter and I watch it on the weekends together.

Off topic a bit but I just read your location information in the little area on the left. That's from Fraggle Rock isn't it?

That's awesome! We actually had one sprout in the compost bin and it's continued to grow in a raised bed that we built for it. I've got to transplant it this week into a pot so we can bring it in the house for the winter. This is the first one we've gotten to sprout and we're hopeful that we can...

Okra is so tough we can't eat it, the green beans are dead, cantaloupe fruit is rotten inside even when it looks great on the outside and the chickens dug up everything else except the watermelon vine which is hiding in our aquaponics pond..... and that's just the dirt garden we have. The AP...

The seeds we've saved for fall and next spring got soaked in the crisper. Something leaked and although we pulled the seeds out and dried them and put them back in the fridge I'm unsure if they'll still be viable for planting. Should we keep them ($100 worth) or toss them and buy new ones? Any...

Love all of it! And jealous of it all as well.

Ok I've got to get some bird netting up. My concern is that the netting might interfere with the natural pollination that is finally starting to happen. Those of you that have had to put up netting, have you noticed any issues with the insects getting through the netting to get to the flowers...

Darn it.....

They are in full sun for maybe 3-4 hours a day. The leaves are on the small side and well spaced. I did add epsom salt to the tank (.75 ounce for the 750 gallons was what I read) and I did spray them all with a mix of epsom and miracle grow a few weeks ago. I also add an organic fertilizer to...

We have a beefsteak that is probably 8 feet long if it was standing upright and covered in tomatoes. The cherry is easily that long and has multiple stalks with 12-15 blooms on it and it's already fallen over twice. The others (heirloom and big boy) won't stand at all if I remove the stakes that...

Strange question for you all. I've got tomato plants that are way too tall and spindly for the amount of blossoms that have sprouted, if they make half the fruit they'll fall over. Since I can't use metal in my garden (aquaponics) and haven't found anything that will hold them up do you think...

I think you might be cheating. Down here in zone 8b (AKA the burning humid shores of Hades) things are taking longer to get going. Well..... that and the fact that I only just planted the beds in the last week of April, but yeah lets blame it on the weather and not the guy who couldn't get...

That's good stuff right there! We actually planted peas in the garden this year and haven't gotten a single one yet. Here you come along and accidently plant one and you're already harvesting.

I'm curious to know what kind of pruning you did to get those plants to look like that. Ours are growing like crazy but have a sick bush/dwarf tree look to them with few flowers. The plants themselves aren't sick (diseased) they just look like a demented gardener planted them to scare children...

My tomato plants are growing like trees instead of bushes. They are single stalked, very tall and only two of the six that we've planted has flowers on it. Only one has a tomato... a single beef steak tomato. Can Tomato plants be pruned like a bush to make them shorter and produce more fruit...

Oh we are sooooo jealous!!! You'll be able to grow trees in that thing!

Oh I can't wait for pictures! How many did you end up getting?

You need to change your name to Motivated Gardener.

Might be. It's been monsoon season here for the past three weeks. Even our neighbors have lost almost their entire garden to root rot because of all the rain.

Today I found three of my tomato plants have gotten some sort of black rot on the leaves..... and things were going so well.
