Sold 6 dollars worth today, wife had to encourage me to go up and check, said we need those tomatoes (she never says matters) for ourselves if no one's going to buy them. Didn't sell any for 2 days. I got about 50 dollars worth left, I could sell them all, but nope pretty soon I won't put anymore on the table , we will still have them for a month after that at least. Don't have to can green tomatoes they ripen. Now if you...

I picked them all off my plant at the end of September when there was a cold snap. I put them on newspaper in a well-vented plastic bin and covered them loosely with newspaper and stuck them in a corner of my kitchen away from heat. I just finished off the last of them in a salad this week! I peeked in the basket and took any tomatoes that had turned red and we ate them. They were not bland at all and they were grape tomatoes. Next year I plan...

Tuesday, the 24th, I picked mustard greens. We've never had them this late in the season. We froze 7 quarts and will have 2 qts plus 1 cup for lunch today. Having some relatives here for a Thanksgiving dinner. It's cold, windy, and flurrying today so I'm really glad I got them picked.

I have a few that are really fun too. Muppet especially. She's real tame and will come when called, but she is a slkie and her top knot hair do flops over her eyes so sometimes she'll bump into things before she makes it to me. She looks like a pompom running through a pinball game when she comes to me.

If the lettuce is a head variety (tight ball of leaves) you take the whole thing. Otherwise you can pick leaves as they mature, but don't let them get too big because they get bitter.
Or, if it gets cold, like it does here, just take the whole head of leaf lettuce before frost kills it. (Not a problem in Texas)

I just planted green onions, and put my pea starts in today!
Also put the seeds in for zuchini and yellow crookneck, and little lemon cucumbers, but they won't be up for weeks.

I can't get anything to survive indoors. I just brought my houseplants inside. I have a few pothos vines and some pathetic looking christmas cactus. Well, the cactus are actually blooming, so they must have loved being outside this fall. I told DH I wanted some grow lights this year, I think it will help. We bought some steel wire shelving and rigged up a light and I'm hoping it will help the ...

I have the same zone and the same soil...We use coffee cans with a tube in the botton to keep the roots watered and not the rest of the ground and put grass clippings around them, to keep the weeds down and to hold moisture. Use cages made of concrete wire. We plant them as deep as we can in the spring. (Usually after mothers day) This past year we had lots of rain so didn't have to water ...

Not sure I understand vicki......you can have the pot sitting ABOVE the water line and then the wick going into the water AND the plant. As long as the 'feet aren't sitting in water'....should be okay. And violets don't like to have their leaves get wet....so keep the wick away from the leaves.
Hope that helped.......not sure what you were describing.

It's too early to start seeds indoors, even for your region, and a lot of things cannot be started successfully, they must be planted in the earth at the right time.
You can: research your region and learn what grows well in spring, and what you can plant in late summer for a fall harvest. Some varieties will do better in your climate than others.
Learn what kind of pests you can expect ...
