I hate the thought of hail this time of year, just before ripe tomatoes, arrrgggg.
If the bean inside the pod is full-sized, you should shell them out and cook them for "shelly beans". You can get 3 crops from your beans; green...
I cut my stuff up so it will go into a reg quart jar, just can't pay that for lids 'cause they're wide-mouth.
cuke blossoms UNLESS...you buy cuke seeds called gynoecious and parthenocarpic. (mouthful, huh?) They have only female blooms, need no...
Tomatoes and peppers will do ok in 6-7 hrs sun. All beans and peas. 6 hrs is considered "Full sun".
I'm just wondering why there are so few posts in this area. Are there very few organic gardeners here? Is the title hard to find? Curious.....
I meant if you MUST have red then food color would turn it red. In the pie, not on the plants, lol.
Do they turn green when cooked?
The red red rhubarb is mostly from divisions of real red plants. Seed-grown rhubarb is often nearly or all green but tastes the same. I like the...
I agree that pruning is the cause of small grapes. The farther the clusters are from the roots, the smaller the fruit will be. Better to have...
Congrats! You've solved your problem and then some. Thanks for the reminder too about mkt carrots and getting seed from them. I knew about it but...
As long as it has good drainage, I think it would work fine. At least they won't send out runners into adjoining areas. I think I'd try to set the...
How many frost-free days are you looking at left? If it's a full sun area, I'd say plant most anything.
I let mine flop over and hide them with annual "touch-me-nots". There's glads in the back row to draw your attention away from the daffs.
I'm late to read this, but Happy Anniversary to you both. 22 years ....is a marriage you can be proud of. Nice that the weather co-operated too :)
Nice waterfalls and beaches too. Isn't it odd that we try so hard to grow exotic plants (like the bananapassionfruit) and when they grow with none...
I suggest grubbing out the female plants (the ones with seeds). It will cut down on fence-row volunteers that can harbor beetles or other...
Toni~ No need to buy extra plants. Pull off a couple suckers and put them in a pot in the shade for a few days til they root, then set them out.
Welcome back. New here myself. I don't know you but do know a little about having the blues and a slow connection. But...you're back to posting so...
MG~ If your purple volunteer has pointed leaves, it may not be basil at all but perilla, that look a lot alike. Does it have purely a basil smell...
