Garlic is above ground, got my peas planted a week of so ago. Have my peppers, eggplants and tomatoes started. Blueberries are starting to bud now. I have tried to plan like crazy in years past and it kind of took the fun out of it a little bit. Now the closest I come to planning is making sure I get the peppers and eggplants started early, the rest of the garden gets planted based on what I pull out the seed cooler and get distracted by enough to plant haha
Jungle still getting more rediculous, most things are flowering and potatoes in back are really kicking ass. Had everything pointing up and under control but things are laying on each other and growing wherever it wants again. Tomatoes are effin everywhere prob couple to few weeks from a very nice harvest
They get another feeding tomorrow so I get to watch everything explode with growth for the next two weeks again, fuck it right? As long as I can still get in and open the door it will be fine haha or so I keep telling myself
living on 10 acres i usually grow a huge garden… so big that I get more than I need and I generally share it lol here are a few photos from years past i got more… lots more… but lol ive already photo barfed on this page lol the last is a photo from the inside of the barn that i took of my mom. when we moved here… i tore up all the grass and planted veggies…
Well I’ll be! Way freaking cool setup u got there, and here i thought i had a jungle growing!! Totally digging it all!! It’s funny i see ur pic of tomatoes and can prob guess quite a few of the varieties, especially those red orange striped ones being tiggerella. Ur a lot braver than me picking up that crazy looking spider!
Actually the orange stripe ones are Haleys rainbow it’s a varigated Tomato Then there is deans mean green. Persimmon. Giant of siebenturgen. I think I got the spelling wrong on that and a couple others I can’t remember the name. O and grandma Oliver’s chocolate and Abe Lincoln
these were taken when we still lived in missouri… first is my bedroom. really… lol it was a jungle in there. winter time so plants inside… it used to be the addon to the trailer.a living room. you see the fishtank… 100 gallon… then behind it was a upright piano… next to that you can see in the other photo was my art station … i had orange trees… orchids blooming in winter… i had over 100 varieties and species of orchids.had a fireplace too lol… the line across was to dry my herbs. then there is a photo of my mom with part of my garden… 400 pounds of sweetcorn… lots of peas and other veggies lol. and last year… i grow 120 pounds of carrots…
Have direct seeded bush peas, broccoli rabe, chard, scallions and radishes. Still have quite a few plants inside for another week.
It’s on like donkey kong
Need to uppot most and will have to regrow a few, that have since died ,didn’t handle transplant well, so they’ll be going direct to soil when it is time.
The plan is to grow most of this on the Deck, in container’s, with a few of the ornamentals being placed strategically around the property. I guess I’ll see how it goes, at least I get to play in the dirt.
