The Gardening Thread

But should we also know how much "time" you get when caught growing them??

 

Yeah Scarecrow!!!

 

I'm guessing if Park Seed sells them they are legal.On an a somewhat related note I just planted tomato seeds in a bio dome from Park Seed. The bio domes are great for getting a jump on seedlings.

 

Scarecrows are not affected by the sneaky flowers.

 

Here's a pretty one:

I thought this was a herion thread lol,u do know poppy is herion right?opium poppy,not the stuff u have on ur bagels.my woman makes poppyseed cake,its phuchin awesome.gardens are cool

 

I'm trying to have vine ripe tomatoes in Delaware by mid May. Planted two hyper-early heirloom varieties "Sophie's Choice" and "Glacier" in a sunny window early January. Plants are two feet high and loaded with blossoms. Plant to plant them outside around April 1 and nurse them through the usual April frosts.

Big slicing Brandywine tomatoes are also in pots for later planting and big juicy monsters all summer.

Outside, in the cold frame (bent tubing and plastic sheeting), kale, arugula, and spinach survived the cold and are being picked already.

 

wow nice

i'm putting onion's in my garden this weekend.

 

Last year in DE I had a couple Thai pepper plants and a Carolina Reaper. They are surviving the winter so far in the basement

 

Good stuff fellers. I can't believe you guys have plants in the ground already...I mean I get it, but if you saw it up here you'd understand why.

Once I get started up here Ill post pics.

 

This will be a long thread, Scarecrow started it.

 

We've had a ton of rain this winter so it's hampered a lot of commercial growers. I've found in SC Broccoli, kale, swiss chard, lettuces and many herbs are easy to grow in the winter before all the bugs come out. Right now my backyard is a giant dirt patch for the most part. Time to get busy!

 

Made a compost bin this fall and have been adding to it regularly. Turned soil last weekend. Hopefully my son will work on the garden this weekend. He's the more "organic" one. he grows carnivorous plants as a hobby.

 

I grew this one for Wayne:



Not as clear, unfortunately:

 

Doug, you li'l devil!

 

anybody into indoor farming?lol.
I have a hps grow light,used it once like 6 yrs ago,never touched it since then.spent 350 on it,will sell it for 50 bucks.thing takes up too much room as I don't have the space for it,nor the garden for it.if only I was in California....

 

RR ties got me enough height I need here in MB, just three blocks from the beach. I mulch heavily with shredded root and some grass clippings, then turn them in each year. Mine's small... just over 100sq ft, but I use a French Intensive technique with good results. I try to do nothing but heirloom varieties of tomatoes, plus spring greens, radishes, then squash and a couple varieties of chilis. Lots and lots of herbs, and tons of pickling cucs.
