Can somebody help me read Robins? I always thought that seeing a bunch of robins means that spring is near, but the past couple of seasons, they...
All great ideas! Thank you! @Dirtmechanic and @Netty - I have the warming mats and lights for starting seeds indoors but, in my current living...
Location, location, location... and I have the worst! Each season, I learn something new, sometimes contradictory, about my gardens and how to...
Hi Gardengirl! Welcome! I can't be certain, but that looks like the jasmine plant I used to have and I remember there were about 4 plants in the...
It has been very entertaining to read this year's hedgehog stories. The pictures and videos were great! I look forward to next year's adventures!...
That makes sense. The little wasps love my carrot flowers. I might let one go to seed each year and pick the rest.
When they finally did start blooming, I didn't mind them, but I don't see much interest from the pollinators or birds. However, I do see that it...
I've got all of those in the various pictures. I'll have to take a picture of the one I'm referring to when I catch it blooming and post it for you.

Other than missing out on a delicious harvest, what would happen to the garlic if you left it in the ground? What would you find after a year, or...
I'm new to growing garlic. Just starting my first seeding tomorrow. Please tell me when and why to cut the skapes and how to use them.

I had big plans to really beef up my soil over the autumn and winter... and then I got my garlic I forgot I ordered a few months back. I LOVE...
