Thread: Garden

Nice layout. Finally got most of mine planted, all I lack is the corn which will go in this weekend. Thanks for posting.

I've got mine planted too but Old Man Winter is playing hell with it. My early garden, onions and sweet peas, are doing well. My snap beans got hit by a frost and I had to replant them. Then the replants got hit a little by frost which burnt the leaves a little but they are still growing and some have flowers. It's been a tough Spring, cold and dry. Night before we got 4 inches of rain that we needed badly, I'm sure that will help everything. Glad to hear about others that plant gardens, to me gardening and growing fig trees is almost as much fun as fishing.

MY onions


Sweet peas, you can see how dry it was by the cracks in the ground.


Snap beans a few weeks ago, they're nicer now.


Early figs


Some of my 100 plus young fig trees.

Nice garden Gene. The cold snap did get to my cucumbers, so they were replanted. Looks like I'm going to have some serious peaches this year as well. I'll take some pictures of my garden and trees this weekend. I'm ready for some fresh home grown produce.

PPG my neighbor has 2 pear trees and a nice fig tree that I maintain. She wants nothing to do with them. I usually send her old Dad a couple pints of fig preserves and mostly give away the pears. I also finally planted today. I reduced the size of my garden this year and did not plant beans. I'll take pictures in a few days when things start standing up better. I plant my okra with last years seeds , so that will be a while. But they sure have produced well in the past. Crappiecatcher06, may I ask what the pvc around the plants is for? Danny

The PVC helps against cut worms and wind when plants are young I used gallon cans in the past

I'm planning on planting this weekend .. Been putting it off with this weather, but I got the itch and I gotta scratch it

Plants really growing now between rain and warm weather they are taking off. Will post a pic tomorrow.

Took picture of my little garden. Reduced size a little this year. Okra breaking through but so little can't see on photo yet. I have 4 tomatoes, 3 bell peppers, 2 eggplants. 2 yellow squash, 2 zuchini, one cucumber(about six seeds, first try on this) and 6 okra. Usually plenty for us. I'll have to hit the veg. stand for snap beans and purple hulls. Danny
