Your garden looks wonderful. Around me it's mostly sand so I do a lot of bucket gardening. Big Box stores love my advertising with all the 5 gallon buckets I have.

I love everyones spaces!! looking reallll nice

This is my yard, We just moved in 2 years ago and this yard was flat nothing-ness so over the next few years the garden will grow as will the rest of the landscaping.

I make the most of my space, planting nitrogen fixing legumes all throughout, companion planting i.e. peas up all of the corn as well as in the back along the fence "Support in trade for soil enrichment" flowers scattered trough out picked for specific beneficial's they attract. + The garden is on a 3 year rotation plan mixing soil builders, heavy feeders and light.

5 varieties of tomatoes
4 varieties of carrots
3 varieties of squash
3 varieties of beans
5 varieties of nasturtiums "best tasting flower besides the ganja flower"

Few diff types of lettuce, 2 potatoes, "58 day SS corn, sooooo nice" + few otheres.


As I go through and pic everything, I plant buckwheat for my green manure, as the garden does not get anything but de-chlorinated water and compost in spring.

Non of my friends ever want to listen to me talk about my garden so I had to talk a little about it here... Thanx for listing.

I love growing veg as much, if not more than MJ. It is one of my passions, soon to be career. Thank you so much for taking the time to look!

what is the secret to growing garlic anyway? this was my most sucessful year and all I got was small bulbs that are suitable for replanting. The "leafs" yeillowed and the stems got fragile and fell over and looked like some white stuff on the stems and then they browned and died. such a promising start with being able to plant some stuff in late march when normally that does not happen to may, but little to show for it so far. Some beans, zukes, and plenty of greens but most other stuff has done mediocre so far.

looking great everyone.

mrs b that water looks amazing, great blue color to it!

man sirtokesalot.. i am jealous.. cant wait til i can have a veggie garden again.

i plan on doin it next year ! :D
 
what is a good use for zuke clubs? I harvested 6 that weighed over 15 pounds total, and cooked and ground them up intending to make juice out it. Instead, it became more soup worthy. It has a slight subtle flavor but needs a whole lot more as it is almost tasteless. But it shows promise too, just needs some herb or sweetness or something. Any suggestions?
