Re: What Do You Grow in Your Garden

container or indoor growing isnt as hard as it sounds. fish tanks and those round buckets that cost 5 dollars at dollar general, like a big tub, with rope handles. good dirt, love, sunlight and water. in the end, you will save so much money, and knowing where it come from is refreshing as well.

caster seed will stop that hun. i read that in a book about natures way of pest removal. it said to put it all the way across your problem area and then thin it out to where youd send them away too. like a triangle leaving away from your home.

I belive the reason behind that is.... most animals feed on your garden ect because they are thirsty & they get their fluids from what they eat. So if you leave them some water they'll leave your plants alone.

I've had better luck with putting the bottles around my plants to spare them from being comped on.

I'm so jealous, some of you are planting already!!!! I still have snow on the ground & this past weekend below zero temps. I wish our growing season was longer.

Re: What Do You Grow in Your Garden

with usual weather here, u could plant twice a season if u do it early in the spring.

Re: What Do You Grow in Your Garden

alot of the plants i grow can be reseeded mid summer but most just keep growing, green beans, onions can be reseeded, but tomatoes, peppers, mellons, cabbage, peas,cucumbers,and most flowers keep producing new veggie and flowers as long as the weather permits and you take care of the garden

Re: What Do You Grow in Your Garden

I just read last night that rabbits, deer and turtles dont like garlic or the smell. The writed stated they planted garlic around their garden, and it kept the animals out. Of course she had surplus garlic, which she sold.

im wondering if your statement means they eat the mint or it keeps them out?
