I planted strawberry seeds in my basement last august, and they have done quite well. I want to put them outside in a raised bed this year. I'm sure they will grow, but without going through a cold period, will they produce fruit this year, or shouldn't I expect any? thx.

I want to start growing strawberries after a bad experience with a garden full of clay, and everything in it dying. I've gone to raised beds and have been experiencing good luck with what I've planted so far this year. Can I get bare root plants and plant them this year, or wait till next spring...

I have started seeds indoors for years, and have always had good luck doing this. So far this year everything has gone good and everything is growing as expected. Today I took one of the tomato plants that has been transplanted to a solo cup and put under a grow light and noticed that the first...

This is the result of planting 200 yellow and red onion sets. All were planted to the same depth, watered as needed (1in per week), and kept weed free. What happened?

Neighbor was farming 7 acres next to my house and quit using this field and just let it go to weeds, and what ever trees grew up. Yesterday I noticed one of the trees had quite a few small apples growing on it,and was wondering if anyone could ID what these are. They are small like cherry...

Transplanted some tomato plants that I grew from seed, and the deer enjoyed them, so I had to go find some plants. Looked all over town, every place was sold out. Finally found some at a Meijers store, sorry looking, dried up, but they were tomato plants and what I had planted last year. These...

I have a small garden that has rhubarb and strawberries in it that is under water because of all the rain we've had in the past week. the strawberries are doing fine, but the rhubarb leaves and stalks are turning yellow and drooping down into the water. Can it be saved?

The baby rabbits like the fodder I grow for them.

I sprouted way too many tomato plants this year, I planted some in 2 different garden spots, and I put 6 in 5 gallon pails. The container plants started looking bad, so I took 3 out of the pails, and planted them in the garden, the other 3 I left alone to see how they would compare to the...

Planted a block of sweet corn this year, and as the tassels emerged they were bright red, I have another block in another garden about 50ft away and the tassels are a blond color. Never had this happen before. Both gardens used the same seed.

I've been finding tomatos with the bottoms rotten, they aren't on the ground, but up on the plant itself, Is this from bugs or what. Thanks

I bought rhubarb plants last year at a garden center in 1 gallon pots. All the single stalks were red and healthy. This year the plants are growing like crazy, but 90% of the stalks are green. Will they ever turn red.

I planted three mounds of 'three sisters' this year and as things started to grow, everything looked real good. Then the winter squash took over. These things are as big as my pumpkin plants, and sprawling just as long. I can't believe how big these plants have gotten. They're supposed to be a...

I started seeds this spring and had more tomatoes than I wanted so I put some of them in 5gal plastic buckets. The plants that weren't in buckets already have tomatoes on them, but the container plants didn't even have flowers. I decided to remove the plants in the containers and put them in the...

Got all my barrels filled today, didn't rain much, but was enough to top off 3 55gallon drums, and by garbage pail.

I love it when we get a good rain for most of the day, then it stops and gets warm and then it's time to pick nightcrawlers.

Seeing a lot of wooly bear caterpillars this year and all of them have the biggest brown stripe I've ever seen. Legend says with that big stripe we will have a mild winter. Hope they're right.

After letting my bucket potato grow all summer in a 5gal bucket I dumped it out today and found this.

I planted some raspberry plants this spring, some have grown about 2ft, others have grown only one ft. What do I need to do with them now that cold weather is coming? I'm reading where the new plants won't have fruit this year, but will next year, some of the taller plants look like they have...

I was given raspberry plants this spring, planted them and have watched them grow all summer. Some have grown about 3ft some only 1ft. The taller plants are starting to fall over, do these need to be staked or just let them fall. Also, do I leave them alone when winter hits, I'm in michigan and...
