My raised beds are made with just plain 2x12s. Nothing fancy and cheap to replace when they eventually need it. I'm planning on using feed sacks for potatoes this year. Haven't tried them that way yet.

I need to get off my bum and get a bed prepped and peas in. I have hoops and netting to keep the deer out this year

I had never heard of the feed sack method til she said it and will be doing it also thinking darn what a great idea
then I will plant my beets, carrots and the like in the tires. James put new tires on his truck badly needed I asked
if they had old tires for sale, he said no sale but all you can take out back as it costs for them to get rid of them.
I may go get a dozen more plant the whole garden in them

I've only done grow bags on tomatoes before. Potatoes are supposed to work really well. I have enough feed sacks to do it.

I'm thinking of trying to loosen up the raised beds with some straw this year. Pulling out the wheat and oats isn't an issue for me

I have such deep dark dirt where spread shaving last year I will start maybe 3 with a bit of dirt
but only potato one to start.. Lordy I get at least two feed sacks a month think because the BF and I are the only
ones that eat tomatoes I will do maybe three plants maybe even make salsa

I use my tire beds for crops that like a more heat than we typically get here on the coast. Good for peppers and cucumbers.

sure cucumbers and cantaloupes even watermelons and pumpkins

Has he been shaved? or did he shed his fur off? Hansome guy. where is the pic our your lady GP?

I don't know if he was shaved or if he just shed but he had a full fluffy coat when we saw him. I did not take the picture, she sent it to me. He is huge!

He is actually purebred. I always think of Great Pyrenees as being all white but they can have color in up to one third of their coat.

Our female is all white and she looked small next to him. I had posted pictures not long ago but here she is again. This was taken by her former owner.

 

[pennyJo1960]

sorry but I know the breed quite well judged them myself also, I understand what you where told
the head is of a saint also the color graying on the ears is approved not the entire head
jmho wanting you to be aware, your little girl is sure growing up nicely
