Gardening Thread Pt 2 The other one seems to have
The lettuces are even bigger now and should be ready to harvest in another week or so. [img:$uid]http://i68.photobucket.com/albums/i9/jgascot/IMAG0142.jpg[/img:$uid]
Beans are a-comin' [img:$uid]http://i68.photobucket.com/albums/i9/jgascot/IMAG0144.jpg[/img:$uid]
Not sure what's gonna be with the broccoli. I read in my trusty veggie gardening book that once yellow blooms start to show you need to clip it because it will turn. At least one of the broccoli's are starting to show some yellow blooms and they're still not much larger than in this pic. I don't know if it has to do with maybe I should've planted them when it was still way colder outside. They were the first thing I put in the bed once I set it up and saw the garden center put out veggies. A lesson learned for next season.

Imma snip the top ones off and see if the secondary ones do any better. | |

It was too early to plant the escargo begonia... so they are hanging in there by a thread.
I plant two apple trees this Saturday... I'll try to take pics.. it'll be at one of the gardens I tend to... this one is at my son's afterschool
ornamental pepper seedlings are doing well... may transplant them in two weeks + since we are still hitting 30degrees
I killed my basil seedlings, stevia seedlings, cilantro seedlings (only 3 are left ) and spearamint seedlings are dead...
I killed mint.

John, have you tried square foot gardening?
THere are all sorts of resources on it.
Supposedly, you can square foot garden with no need for pesticides, etc.

I'm telling you, cilantro is a pain in the ass to grow! I decided to wait a few more weeks before buying my seedlings because the weather was colder last week and I don't want to have to keep everything inside until the weather is consistently warm. The check. The string he dropped. The Mona Lisa. The musical notes taken out of a hat. The glass. The toy shotgun painting. The things he found. Therefore, everything seen–every object, that is, plus the process of looking at it–is a Duchamp. | |

Not funny.
We found ANOTHER patch of mint in the yard. I dug up a whole bunch and put it in pots then shot the rest of those bitches with some Round Up. | |

Thanks! I think I might check further into this for next year. I'm doing fairly dense gardening anyway. | |

I really hate the way youtube works.
I click on related videos all the time and just kind of wander youtube that way.
It brought me to a video of Hyenas devouring a baby wilderbeast alive.

I just can't grow anything from seeds... well my ornamental peppers are doing well. I'm better off planting young plants and working it from there... the larger baby plants can take the 30 degree nights. my bergonias may live.

So far everything I've planted is doing well. I planted my tomato plants today. I have so much more to plant but we've had so much rain and more to come. | |

Damn gangster sparrows....they are shredding my wormwood plants!!!! Those plants were all beautifully shaped and growing perfect and those birds are just ripping the plants to shreds.
Had a few frosty nights, but my herbs are all alive, but my pepper plant keeps debating death.
Other than that...a lot of beautiful stuff going on. My butterfly bush is taking off wonderfully. Going to church doesn’t make you a Christian, any more than standing in a garage makes you a car. | |

Your min leaves are so long and pointy. Ours are much shorter than those. We've picked quite a lot to use in Vodka Mojitos. | |

There are all kinds of different varieties
NOTHING beats fresh picked mint in Mojitos !! | |

I did that but my dumb behind decided to transplant the seedlings too soon... its still pretty brisk where I live. We had a few nights that were 30 degrees, I should have known better. | |

Last summer was one of the hottest on record in NYC and my cilantro definitely did not like it hot. The check. The string he dropped. The Mona Lisa. The musical notes taken out of a hat. The glass. The toy shotgun painting. The things he found. Therefore, everything seen–every object, that is, plus the process of looking at it–is a Duchamp. | |
