    Quick and cheap fence?

    I've used construction fencing in the past and it's held up to my bullies running and playing. Once I got my permanent fencing up, I've been repurposing the construction fencing as trellises.

    Help keeping these alive

    I got them all separated and repotted today. Now I just have to find a place inside for them as it's below freezing today!

    Easier carrot germination

    I've also covered the areas with sheets of burlap that I keep damp. Really helps to speed up germination and keep the birds from eating the seeds

    Help keeping these alive

    I usually use neem oil for my pest and fungal spray. Do you know if that will work??

    Help keeping these alive

    I received this living plant arrangement a few weeks ago after my grandmother passed. I'm an outdoor and veggie gardener. I don't know much at all about tropical house plants. Do I need to repot each of these plants into their own individual containers? They seem to want to die right now (I'd...

    Fence out of pallets

    I plan on planting pollinator friendly/attracting flowers and plants in the tops of the pallets as the fence runs close to my garden. I also hear droning or humming coming from the woods at times so I'm wondering if there isn't a bee colony back there already.

    Question which method

    Here's a blog post covering all the different types of airlock lids that you can get for fermenting in jars. It also goes on to talk about what else you might need to take into consideration for making certain things like sauerkraut. https://www.makesauerkraut.com/fermentation-lids/

    Why Introduce Yourself?

    I was just saying that I need a place to talk all my plant stuff. My friends and family are tired of hearing me ramble on about it constantly!

    Fence out of pallets

    We've been working on a fence out of free wood pallets, trying in vain to keep the new pup out of the woods. So far it's been working great, hardly cost anything, and I'll be able to plant things in the top of the pallets!

    Cups or nipples

    On the farm we used either the nipples or the same set up you'd use for rabbits/rodents. The ones with the little roller ball. Worked great especially for chicks. Here's a stock photo of one.

    Rooster Collars to stop crowing what's your thoughts?

    Get a bunch of Guinea fowl and then ask yourself if a rooster is really that loud. LOL Our neighbor's rooster can be a bit loud at times, but only when he escapes and starts crowing under my window at 5AM. Guess I'm just use to farm noise and prefer it over loud cars.

    From this to this

    I use the patent pending Ruby system. (Ruby is the big one, the little one is still in training ;)) They haven't failed me yet! There is deer fencing that you can buy and put up, but it seemed to catch more rabbits than anything else for us.

    Hello from a Stay at Home Mom from Georgia USA

    We use a netting with a decently sized gauge that allows pollinators to pass back and forth, so it only blocks the birds/squirrels. I also go out and remove the netting since it's on big hoop frames to allow for extra access when I'm outside or my dogs are outside as they are trained to run off...

    Sweet Cherry type tomato in 7B

    I got a variety last year from Southern Exposure Seed Exchange (they specialize in heirloom and Southern varieties). It did fantastic here in South Carolina. It was the Sugar Cherry Tomato.

    Question Northwest Louisiana????

    I'm from the South USA! The possibilities are endless!! Tomatoes? Greens? Peppers? Herbs? Melons? Gourds? Peas? Beans? What do you like to eat? The trick is finding a variety that will survive our Southern heat.
