Lynda I love those tires. Did you have any problems with cutting down the sides? What tool did you use?

Cool season peas, like snow peas and sugar snaps, are traditionally started around March 17, depending on where you are. I started mine March 19, and they got too hot and died. So this year, they'll be started in February. Same with cabbage and other cool season crops. My last frost is usually mid April. By mid June, we're in the mid to upper 80s.

Published (2009-11-21 10:42:00)
As a newbie last year I did some with slits and they also got algae etc on the top. The slits clogged up with dirt. There were others I used a drill bit and did holes about 1/4 in or maybe 1/8... they worked better. I also did holes on the side to help with some drainage. Those did much better!! Karen

Published (2009-11-21 21:02:00)
After a few years what works best for me is a soldering iron which I think my DH picked up at yard sale. I use mainly 2-litre pop bottles, so I bore one hole in the middle and then diagonal slits in each of the little sections on the bottom. This way I get both the bottom and the sides (which I think is essential for good drainage) in one fell swoop. Quick and easy. I always use in a well-ventilated room or put a fan on away from me because I...

I can't believe you had a work person who actually knew that plants have seeds let alone how to collect them! If the person does know then they should have the garden etiquette to ask you first. When I saw the thread title I thought a four legged critter had eaten them. Just a nervy two legged critter. :)

tabor (my then 11 yr old son) drilled 1/8" holes 3 in each side of the parts of the bottom of the milk jugs, we divided them into 4 parts. i wanted them to drain well. i do like the idea of the drainage holes on the side. we may do that this year! **smile** ~medo

Bilberry (Vaccinium Myrtillus)
Published (2009-11-23 14:43:00)
I'm not growing that variety. I have two plain thornless blueberry shrubs that I got from Lowe's about three years ago. I have two varieties that I bought over the last two years too. They are Vaccinium myrsinites and Vaccinium Darrowii "Rosa's Blush." I initially bought them because they are shorter evergreen shrubs without knowing they were blueberries. I'll be happy to have more fruit to eat though!

Your lettuces don't have to be in rows, but a bit of order to them makes it easy to do an early weeding when they are young. Then once they get going they make a nice carpet and you just thin and serve baby greens to give the others a bit of elbow room as they grow. They don't mind a bit of crowding, though. I started my cool weather veg (lettuces, turnip greens, kale, ...

hmmm...I don't think I'll be interested. If I wanted a peach, I'd GET a peach. When I want a tomato, I want it to taste like a flippin tomato. What a crock of horse poo- "gee, if it doesn't taste good, let's genetically alter it so it tastes more like one of these things instead." It's one thing to put sugar in your tomato soup, but to completely change it to taste like something OTHER than a...

Hi, Tom, I am also in Virginia. I would be interested in your fireball red hibiscus as well as the hosta seeds. You never know what you are going to get with hostas, but they are fun to try. Take a look at my list and see if there is anything you are interested in. I think I still have everything that is on my list but I have sent stuff out to several swaps so don't hold me to that!

This past spring was my first time at wintersowing. I used a lot of gallon milk jugs. I drilled 4 3/8" holes (one in each of the sections at the bottom of the jug) for drainage. But I realized later, when spring (and rains) came I saw that I wasn't getting enough drainage. Algae bloomed in many jugs due to poorly draining potting mix. So I had to cut 4 more holes with a knife (about 3/4" ...

Today was leaves for me, too, as well as continuing to dig out/sift/amend the front foundation beds. Tomorrow will be more leaves and some mowing. If the day is long enough, I'll also cut down and pull out all the Toms except 'Large Red Cherry.' Those suckers are still producing delicious ripe fruit!
